I have served NDC with all my life – Bagbin

Alban Bagbin hopes to lead the NDC into the 2020 elections Alban Bagbin hopes to lead the NDC into the 2020 elections

The Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Hon. Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, says nothing motivates him better than when he looks back to review all his numerous contributions to the party and the impact he has made in positioning the umbrella family at where it is today.

The result, he said, has been positive as the NDC has grown to become one of the most enviable political parties in the country and the subregion.

He said throughout his life, he has served the NDC with all his heart, making him stand out as a very committed and loyal party activist.

“My contribution has been huge and I am putting it down in the form of a book so that posterity can go through. But more importantly, I have represented them on so many platforms. I used to represent the party on the most popular program ‘Talking Points’ on GTV from 1997 to 2000. I was a very active participant on ‘Talking Points’. I debated the current President on Talking Points. I also debated their economist, Kwame Pianim on Talking Points a number of times, and a number of their key players like Hackman Owusu Agyemang among others. I had to take them on when representing the party. We also established Parliamentary Clubs and particularly, in the institutions and I used to go there to do that. Now, I am seen as a patron of the Parliamentary Clubs. So, we’ve done a lot to bring the party up to this stage and I am a very committed, loyal and life member of the NDC”, he noted when interacting with Sefwi Juaboso based Radio Rainbow, Saturday, September 22, 2018.

The Nadowli/Kaleo lawmaker had stormed the area to interact with the constituency executives in the yet to be created Western North Region.

Prior to his interaction with the party members, Hon. Bagbin who is aspiring to be the flagbearer of the NDC for election 2020, paid homage to Nananom, the Chief Imam and Zongo Chief in the locality.

Commenting further, he urged the delegates to look at his trump card and the numerous contributions he has made towards making the party one of the most attractive parties in the subregion to vote massively for him.

He said a vote for him as flagbearer and subsequently, as President, will see a massive turnaround in the lives of the people.
