FORMER PRESIDENT JOHN AGYEKUM KUFOUR |
He bemoaned the unceasing
infighting and internal wrangling within the rank and file of the Party and stressed
on the need for them to stay focused and resolute in their quest of wrestling
power from the incompetent government lead by President Mahama.
President Kufuor made this
call during his address to the leadership; members and supporters of the Party
at its day’s 15th extraordinary annual Delegates Conference held at the Coronation
Park in Sunyani and was on the theme: “Arise for Change 2016.”
The Former President
expressed the need for reconciliation as imperative to bring every member of
the NPP on board for effective electioneering.
He further said
Ghanaians are craving for change of government come November 7 indicating that
the onus lies in the Danquah-Dombo-Busia tradition to make their dreams a
reality.
“It is only the NPP
which has the DNA to move the country forward by spurring private sector
growth,” he said.
Mr. Kufour said the country has witnessed bad
governance, poor economic management and lack of direction in the last seven
years, indicating that until the NPP closes its ranks it would be difficult for
it to regain power.
Former President Kufuor
affirmed the defining character of the NPP as promoting human dignity, the rule
of law, tolerance and good governance, and therefore asked the leadership of
the Party to be more responsive in addressing the challenges within it.
Former President Kufuor
entreated members and supporters of the NPP to empower and support Nana Addo
Dankwa Akufo-Addo and his running mate Alhaji Dr Mohamadu Bawumia in the
electioneering for the Party to win the 2016 general election.
He asked the leaders
and chairpersons of the Party to see themselves as servants and should
therefore work hard for it to win the votes of the grassroots voters.
