Don’t allow your ranks to be Divided - Ologo

Mr. Michael Ologo a successful American Banker and a staunch member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has charged members and branch executives of the Party not to allow their ranks to be divided but rather stay firm, committed, and have unyielding hope for the better years ahead of them.

Mr. Ologo, an outspoken youth activist was speaking to party members over the weekend at Nkurakan in the Yilo Krobo District near koforidua to raise the confidence level of members. He stressed however that, The idea that we are responsible for ourselves but we always rise or fall as one party, and the fundamental believe that we are our brother’s and sister’s keeper are the promises we need to keep, And as much as we expect government to do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the Ghanaian people upon which the government relies.

In addressing a question by one of the members, Mr. Ologo agreed that the delegates and the entire people of yilo krobo must elect a leader who has the competency to rebrand and market the Party to make it attractive and appealing to the district in particular and Ghanaians as a whole. He posited that, the district and the party needs someone with cross-sectional appeal who can reach out to the opposition and disaffected voters, and a god fearing person who believe that the almighty God created all human beings equal, and therefore when party executives devote their time and resource to help grow the party, they must be rewarded equitably.

He stated that, there is no first class citizen or second class citizen, “we are one people created in the image of god” and called on the party leaders to treat members of the party with respect and dignity, And also reminded party members that the vision of the NDC is much bigger than their individual interests and rather work collectively to help the party win the next general election.
