NPP would form alliance when necessary – Commey

Cape Coast, Aug. 16, GNA – Mr Lord Commey, National organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) on Tuesday stated that the Party would not hesitate to form an electoral alliance with any political party when it deemed it necessary to do so in order to retain power.

He described the NPP as a serious and strategic political party, poised to win all the 19 seats in the Central region in the 2008 general election.

Mr Commey made these remarks during a press conference in Cape Coast to round off his five-day tour of the Central region. The tour, which started last Friday, took him to all 19 constituencies of the region during which he met with the Party’s executive.

Mr Commey observed that most of the seats the Party lost in the last general election were the result of a confusion, which arose from the primaries in those constituencies after which some aggrieved candidates went independent.

The national organizer therefore called for total commitment and loyalty to the party from supporters to enable it capture all the seats it lost in the last elections.

Mr Commey said he was impressed with what he saw in the region during the tour adding that the morale of Party supporters was high and the people were prepared to sacrifice to promote their cause. He said the NPP was poised to rule the nation for a long time to come since it has survived all forms of intimidations perpetrated against it by opponents.

He described President Kufuor as a man of vision and hard work, “who has raised this nation to a high level of pedestal, culminating in much freedom and high standards of living being enjoyed by the people.” The national organizer said the government’s developmental effort could be seen in all the nooks and crannies of the country, and that there was no community across the nation that had not benefited from at least a development project.

He commended the new regional executive of the party for their dedication and hard work, and expressed the hope that they would work even harder to meet the hopes and aspirations of the national executive.
