NPP sabotaged me in 2012 - Moctar Bamba recalls

Aspiring National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Alhaji Moctar Bamba, has accused leadership of the party of sabotaging him during the 2012 election campaign.

He said soon after his election as National Organiser, some senior people in the party including the national campaign team hijacked his position and resources allocated to his office for the party’s Director of Operations.

“How were they expecting me to succeed if the Director of Operations at the time, Lord Commey, was playing the very role I was supposed to ahead of the elections,” Bamba lamented.

Alhaji Moctar Bamba was speaking on Adom Midday News as part of the countdown to the special delegates congress, which takes place on April 12, 2014.

He charged that when he attempted to protest against the treatment meted out to him, some people plotted against him.

“You cannot feel happy and be part of a party in which your colleagues victimise you for expressing your views."

He warned that, this time round, he will not tolerate the same attitude and frustration and will fight to protect the cause of freedom which NPP stands for.

“I want to sound a strong warning to anyone who intends relegating me to the background because I won’t tolerate it as I did in 2012. They have taken my leniency to be my weakness,” Alhaji Bamba cautioned.

He urged the party’s delegates to vote competent executives like him who will work hard for the party’s victory in 2016.
