CPP uncovers electoral fraud in the Volta Region

Ho, Jan. 21, GNA – The Leadership of the Convention People’s Party (CPP) has uncovered an electoral fraud, tail of deception and coercion laced with inducements in attempts to lure Volta Regional members of the party to the yet to be registered political party.

The regional and constituency leaders therefore renewed their overwhelming testament, total loyalty and commitment to the Party during CPP’s flagship dialogue platform “CPP Family Convention,” organised at Ho.

In her address the National Leader and Chairperson Ms Christiana Yaba Samia Nkrumah thanked members for standing firm against the coercion and inducement, for remaining loyal and true to the values of the CPP, and for rededicating themselves to building Nkrumaism.

She said the party has a “golden opportunity” to now forge ahead and pledged the commitment of the National leadership to provide logistics including equipping Constituency offices, vehicles, and motorbikes for party organisation.

“We need to be self reliant and pay our dues and for all to contribute something even if small. Away with parallel structures! Away with disunity! Away with confusion on what the CPP stands for and represents,” she said.

Ms Nkrumah noted: “New Year, New CPP, the future of our great party is bright”.

The CPP National Leadership team includes Mr Oteng –Anane, National Vice Chairman; Mr Ivor Kobbina Greenstreet, General Secretary; Acting National Youth Organiser Mr Kadri Abdul Rauf; Deputy Organisers, Party Committee Chairmen and a host of Regional and National Party functionaries.
