Bolgatanga (Upper East) – The Upper East Region branch of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) raised about 100 million cedis at a fund-raising dinner dance at the weekend in Bolgatanga.
The First National Vice-Chairman of the party, Nana Ntim, who presided, declared that the retention of the NPP in the next elections was imperative and non-negotiable considering the successes chalked so far in modelling the country’s economy.
He noted that apart from its good policies and programmes, the party needed financial support to be sustained and also get its in-house programmes ongoing. He said as part of the party’s 10th anniversary programme, new identification cards would be issued to its supporters and would require detailed information and commit members to give financial support to the party.
Mr Mahami Salifu, Upper East Regional Minister, told the people that the party needed their support in order to entrench itself as a party and a government. He said there were indicators of the government’s positive performance since it took office and expressed the hope that “the electorate would judge us by our performance and return us to power.”
