CPP FLAGBEARER DR. NDUOM OUTDOORS UNITY TOUR IN TAMALE

The CPP Flagbearer, Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom on Saturday, June 21st made public what he called a Unity Tour in Tamale, Northern Region. Speaking to Northern Region executives, constituency chairman and parliamentary aspirants, Dr. Nduom called on all CPP members and supporters to unite and present a formidable force for this year’s presidential and parliamentary elections. He told his audience that Ghanaians are looking to the CPP as the alternative to the NPP and the NDC but not just for change sake. Dr. Nduom said that Ghanaians like the CPP’s message of “Change Ghanaians can feel in their pockets”. Therefore, the Party should not miss this great opportunity to attract support and win power in 2008.

The Flagbearer declared that he has forgiven all those who have spoken and acted in different ways against him in the past few weeks saying that to err is human. The CPP is a human organization and as such people will make mistakes. All political parties have their challenging times. The NDC has had people leave to form other parties. The NPP has faced resignations and big problems during its presidential and parliamentary primaries. But the CPP is a Party of peace and unity and is expected to come and bring Ghanaians together and build a nation that recognizes excellence and one’s contribution and not religious or ethnic origin. Dr. Nduom asked everyone to put recent minor challenges aside and work to prove to Ghanaians that the CPP is ready to manage the affairs of Ghana.

Dr. Nduom has met the executives of the Greater Accra Region on June 13th, Eastern Region on Thursday, June 19th and the Brong Ahafo region on Friday, June 20th to appeal to them to work together and unite their members for the common objective of winning the 2008 election. He briefed them of efforts being made by the Council of Elders and the National Executives to solve disciplinary problems that have cropped up recently in the Party.

Dr. Nduom will carry his Unity Tour to the rest of the regions in the next two weeks. He will also meet the National Executives and interest groups in the Party on Tuesday, June 24th to pursue the Unity agenda. On Saturday, June 28th a Second Quarter Campaign Review will be held to examine the national CPP campaign and chart the course for the Third Quarter.
