Asiedu-Nketia warns NDC over detractors
Ho, June 15, Ghanadot/GNA - Mr Johnson Asiedu-Nketia,
General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC),
has called on supporters of the party to be wary of
detractors who would want to use propaganda to disunite the
party.
He said the NDC was the most purposeful and united political
party in the country at the moment and urged members to
"watch out for attempts by political opponents to use
propaganda to break the party".
Mr Asiedu-Nketia said this at a workshop organized by the
party for regional organizers and secretaries of the party
in Ho on Saturday.
The workshop was on the theme: "Implementing the winning
formula" and had sponsorship from the Institute of Economic
Affairs (IEA).
He said issues of the party executive marginalizing Former
President Jerry John Rawlings were mere propaganda and
advised supporters and sympathizers of the party to
disregard such propaganda.
He said they should instead concentrate on strategies of
campaigning that would bring the party back to political
power in 2009.
Mr Asiedu-Nketia said the NDC was convinced of winning the
2008 election "one touch" and advised supporters to focus on
polling station and house-to-house interactions rather than
constituency rallies.
He alleged that MASLOC Loan was being disbursed on political
party affiliation with voters ID cards being collected as
collaterals and asked supporters of the NDC to be vigilant
before during and after the election.
Alhaji Huudu Yahaya, National Vice Chairman of the party, in
a remark said the party was battle ready to win the December
election.
He said the party had changed its approach to meet new
challenges in the political front and urged members to "move
in that new change" of getting to the people at the
grassroots to win the election.
Mr Haruna Iddrisu, National Youth Organizer, said the party
had declared "operation win your ballot box" at the polling
stations and urged all polling station chairmen to give off
their best to realize that dream.
Mr Iddrisu advised the Electoral Commission to be ICT
compliant and employ image recognition software to weed out
multiple voters in the register.
Mr Francis Ganyaglo, Volta Regional Secretary of the party,
said the workshop marked the beginning of "good things" for
the party.
He described the party in the region as “very solid" and
assured that it would deliver all the 22 parliamentary seats
in the region to the party.
