Tema-Ghana, Nov. 13, MNN – Director of Elections of the main Opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Mr. Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, has appealed to the party’s delegates across the country to vote for competent executives.
He said it was the expectation of the rank and file of the party that just as has been done in other regions, the Greater Accra delegates would also be discerning and vote for competent people to ensure victory for the Party in the 2024 Elections.
Mr. Afriyie Ankrah who is contesting for the General Secretary slot of the NDC, stated at the Greater Accra Regional Delegates Conference at the Tema Sports Stadium to elect Regional Executives for the next four years.
He described the atmosphere as showcasing the beauty of democracy, at the end of the day we expect the best to win.
He added that those of them going for the National elections were also looking forward to such a peaceful and better atmosphere that would see them being elected to their desired position.
Meanwhile, a minimum of 23 and a maximum of 28 delegates from 33 out of the 34 constituencies in the Greater Accra Region are expected to vote in the ongoing election as there is an injunction on Amasaman Constituency.
Mr. Isaac Ashai Odamtten, NDC Member of Parliament for Tema East Constituency has called on adherents of the party to stand firmly and move forward for the party to recapture power to serve Ghanaians.
Mr. Odamtten said that at the end of the election being supervised by the Electoral Commission (EC) “we should all see ourselves as winners, no losers, and work together for the total liberation of the country”.
The Tema East MP urged the party faithful to consider the best interest of the nation and the party; “we must team up to redeem Ghana for generations yet unborn, we have a duty to save this country through Election 2024”.
Mr. Odamtten noted Ghanaians are calling for the NDC to redeem the country, “we cannot fail the suffering people of Ghana, we are all going through difficult times and all that our current government is noted for is blaming others for its mismanagement of the economy”.
In a related development Mr. Theophilus Tetteh Chaie, Greater Accra Regional Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has asserted that Ghanaians will not forgive the party if it failed to win the 2024 General Election.
He, therefore, urged delegates of the party electing regional and national executives to choose the leaders based on their competence and knowledge of the work and not because of money but based on dedication and commitment to the party’s mission.
Mr Tetteh Chair said the current Regional Executive team inherited 13 seats in Parliament but has increased it to 20 seats.
