Stephen Ntim is for unity & peace; disregard the propaganda - NPP Youth for Stephen Ntim

The National NPP Youth for Stephen Ntim (NAYOSAN) has described as unacceptable reports making rounds in the media which seemingly intends to question the integrity and candidature of the aspirant for the National Chairmanship of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr. Stephen Ayesu Ntim.

In a statement signed by the National President of the NPP Youth, Kwabena Frimpong said despite the incessant efforts by some forces within the opposition NDC and NPP to distract Mr. Ntim, he remains unperturbed and focused.

"Mr Ntim is very focused and determined to win the race in order to strengthen the party for victory 2020 and beyond" therefore “no amount of lies or concoction will distract Mr Ntim's resolve to serve his party to break the 8 years monotonous jinx between NPP and NDC.”

“The incoming National chairman believes in the golden rule, and hence, is not interested in mudslinging or any acts of defamation. Moreover, it goes without saying that Mr. Ntim is playing an active role in helping our ever-hardworking President, H. E. Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo deliver on the mandate that the good people of Ghana so generously bequeathed to the NPP in the 2016 elections,” the statement added.

Stephen Ayesu Ntim on several platforms has expressed his readiness to remain focused and formulate purposeful action plans that would make the party more attractive to all.

He has vowed not to quit until he is given the opportunity to lead the elephant family in order to bring his expertise to bare.

The newly appointed National Chairman of the Lands Commission who is contesting for the fourth time expressed his readiness to serve diligently and efficiently if given the nod to realize his long-held dream after three successive attempts.

On the back of this, the National President of the NPP Youth has therefore urged supporters of the NPP to discount the “cheap propaganda” paraded in the media to distort the focus of the entire party and rally behind Stephen Ntim to occupy the National Chairman office.

“We are entreating the teeming supporters of Mr Ntim, fellow Party Members and all Ghanaians to disregard any cheap propaganda; in order not to be provoked by any person or group of persons who would want to thrive on divisive tactics to ruin the focus of the NPP Government and the issues based campaign of Mr Ntim. Surely, as the Lord lives, Stephen Ayesu Ntim will emerge victorious, come June, 2018."

Mr. Ntim has served as the First National Vice-Chairman of the NPP and acted on many occasions as national chairman before.

Therefor he reveals that he has an inner burning desire in him to give off his best for the development of party indicating that his enthusiasm is aimed at keeping the NPP in power beyond 2024.

STEPHEN NTIM STANDS FOR UNITY AND PEACE - NATIONAL NPP YOUTH FOR STEPHEN NTIM

APRIL 17TH, 2018


The leadership and entire members of National NPP Youth For Stephen Ntim(NAYOSAN) has chanced on a publication on social media and other news portals which seeks to condemn an allegeded comment made by the UNIFIER and our incoming National Chairman, Mr Stephen Ayesu Ntim, during his Eastern Regional tour -- in his fourth(4th) bid to become the Chief Servant of our party.

The Campaign of Mr Stephen Ayesu Ntim has always stood for decorum and circumspection in the team's interactions with the kingmakers of our party; in order not to breed any unwarranted tension in the party. Mr Ntim is very focused and determined to win this race in order to strengthen this party for victory 2020 and beyond.

We would like to inform the naysayers and their affiliates that NO amount of lies or concoction will distract Mr Ntim's resolve to serve his party to break the 8 years monotonous jinx between NPP and NDC.

The incoming National chairman believes in the golden rule, and hence, is not interested in mudslinging or any acts of defamation. Moreover, it goes without saying that Mr. Ntim is playing an active role in helping our ever-hardworking President, H. E. Nana Addo Danquah Akufo deliver on the mandate that the good people of Ghana so generously bequeathed to the NPP in the 2016 elections.

Infact, it is on record that for fear of not being taken seriously, a certain candidate has been campaigning in the name of the President; and to the effect that the President supports his bid because he is the only one who can work with him; a remark which is simply highly unacceptable and divisive.

We are entreating the teeming supporters of Mr Ntim, fellow Party Members and all Ghanaians to disregard any cheap propaganda; in order not to be provoked by any person or group of persons who would want to thrive on divisive tactics to ruin the focus of the NPP Government and the issues based campaign of Mr Ntim. Surely, as the Lord lives, Stephen Ayesu Ntim will emerge victorious, come June, 2018.

Again, we believe that the Time Aso Fever has caught up with our detractors; and in their desperation to establish some credibility, they think that the best approach is to attack the enviable clout of Mr Ntim at all cost.

Finally, NAYOSAN wishes to state emphatically that, merely taking shots at Team Ntim can only be a publicity stunt at best. Indeed, as it is often said in our local parlance, "Ahwenepa Nkasa"

God bless the NPP!
God bless mother Ghana!!
God bless President Nana Addo Danquah Akufo Addo!!

Thank You
