COUNCIL OF ELDERS MEET
The National Council of Elders of the New Patriotic Party wishes
to express deep concern at the tone of pronouncements by some
members of the Party, regarding the impending National Party
elections.
At its meeting today January 30th, 2014, the Party’s Council of
Elders debated on the issue of public pronouncements by some
leading members of the Party, and asked that all candidates, and
their supporters and sympathizers, refrain from using impolitic
and intemperate language.
The Council further urged candidates not to lose sight of the
bigger picture before the Party, which is to present a strong
and united front, to effectively battle the NDC, come 2016.
Accordingly the National Council of Elders of the New Patriotic
Party has invited some members for a meeting early next week, to
assist the Body iron out whatever rough edges that might have
arisen, in the run up to the Party’s national elections.
The Council of Elders of the New Patriotic Party takes this
opportunity to assure all members that it takes decorum within
the Party seriously, and will do everything within its power, as
mandated by the Party’s constitution, to protect the unity and
integrity of the Party.
We further call for a total ceasefire at all levels of the party
with immediate effect. Any party member who goes public on
internal party matters shall be summoned before the disciplinary
committee of the party. All must adhere to grievance procedures
within the party.
