Wa, Nov. 11, GNA – Aspirants in the upcoming regional elections of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have been advised to be decorous in their campaign activities to ensure unity in the party during and after the elections.
“I will admonish all aspirants and their supporters to be decorous in their campaign because at the end of the day there will be no winners or losers since the party will be the biggest winner,” Mr Ismail Dibkuu, the Upper West Regional Director of Elections of the NDC, said.
Mr Dibkuu, who gave the advice in an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in Wa, noted that the interest of the aspirants should be to help the party wrestle power from the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in 2024.
He said the current economic challenges in the country were a testament that the NPP could not manage the economy hence the need for the NDC to step in to save the ailing economy.
The NDC had slated Saturday, November 12, 2022, for its regional elections across the country with a total of 40 aspirants, including nine females, successfully filing their nominations to contest the various positions within the party in the Upper West Region.
Mr Dibkuu said all preparations for the election, including security, had been done and the exercise was expected to take place at the Wa Technical Institute.
Two business tycoons, Mr Abdul-Nasri Saani, also known as BUNAS, the incumbent Regional Chairman of the party, and Alhaji Adams Randy, referred to as the Unifier, are contesting the chairmanship position of the party in the region.
Mr Nicodemus Dery, the incumbent Regional Youth Orgnaiser and Mr Charles Lwanga Puozuing, the incumbent Regional Secretary are battling it out for the Regional Secretary position.
For the Regional Communications Director position, Mr Issah Kantagyere is seeking to kick out Mr Prosper Puo-Ire, the incumbent Regional Communications Director of the party.
