Wa, April 2, GNA – Alhaji Muntari Bamba, National Organiser of the “Nasara” Club of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) on Tuesday said, the party would win the 2008 presidential election by 60 per cent to silence the National Democratic Congress (NDC)’s agitation that the Kenyan situation could happened in Ghana.
He said: “No Kenyan experience will happen in Ghana. Rather Ghanaians are going to Canaan and not Kenya,” and added that the behaviour of the NDC was a clear manifestation that they had already conceded defeat.
Alhaji Bamba who was addressing executive members of the rejuvenated “Nasara” Club in the Wa Municipality with a desire to capture the Zongo and Muslim communities for the NPP in the 2008 polls as part of a tour to the Upper West Region.
Alhaji Bamba alleged that, the NDC wanted to foment trouble in the country and therefore called on religious leaders and all those who care for the welfare of Ghanaians to start praying for God’s intervention to ensure unity and harmony during and after the December 2008 elections. He said NPP was determined to capture all the Zongo and Muslims communities as well as the three Northern Regions that had been perceived to be the stronghold of the NDC.
Alhaji Sayibo Sherrif, Deputy National Chairman of the “Nasara” Club said the NPP would win the elections and handover power to an NPP government to continue with the good policies and programmes of President John Agyekum Kufuor.
Mr Sulemana Abubakar, National Youth Organiser of the NPP, urged party supporters to go from house to house to encourage the youth who were 18 years to register when the votes register was opened. Mr Clement Eledi, Parliamentary Candidate for the NPP in the Wa Central Constituency called the elections in the region as “operation restore heritage”.
He urged people in the region to be shareholders of the NPP this time round and not to rely on the goodwill and generosity of the government to appoint somebody from the area as a cabinet minister. “We must work to return the region to its rightful place in Ghanaian political history by voting massively for the NPP in the elections,” Mr Eledi who is a Deputy Minister of Food and Agriculture said.
