Akuffo Addo campaign team on the
road
Abesim (B/A), July
12, GNA - Mr Mustapha Hamid, spokesman for the Nana Addo
Dankwa Akuffo-Addo's presidential campaign, has said the
destiny of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would be determined
by the personality elected as its flag-bearer in the 2008
general election.
He said the prevailing circumstances within the country's
political arena demanded a personality with "a universal
character" like Nana Akufo-Addo, who is decisive in
character and a diplomat as well.
Addressing the Sunyani East, West and Tano North, South
constituency executives in Sunyani on Tuesday, Mr Hamid
stated that Nana Akufo-Addo, had exhibited immense
commitment to the NPP since its birth.
The campaign team had earlier toured 18 constituencies in
Brong Ahafo.
Mr Hamid explained that the meeting with the executives was
a follow-up to Nana Akufo-Addo's outreach programme "in
drumming home his message as a presidential candidate and to
thank them for the warm reception accorded him".
The spokesman said nobody could predict what the opposition
could use to win power in the next elections and that the
party needed a leader who would rub shoulders with the
opposition to retain the NPP in power.
He advised the executives to eschew pettiness and biases and
to support Nana Akufo-Addo to lead the nation.
"You should take the 2007 delegates congress as a life and
death matter, because the leader you will choose will prove
what the party's fate will be in the future," he reiterated.
