REJOINDER: BAWUMIA TO LEAD NPP 2016 CAMPAIGN
My attention has been drawn to a publication
on some online news platforms on an
interview I granted to Joy News. In the
interview, I am said to have revealed some
party strategy, detailing an account to make
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia a more prominent force
in the 2016 elections. The publication also
purported that this is the reason Dr.
Bawumia led the Upper East region
demonstration as well his recently held
public lecture.
The said publication is a complete
misrepresentation of my very comment in the
interview. To a question posed by the
interviewing journalist, I mentioned that
increasingly, the public will see an active
participation by party stalwarts such as our
Presidential Candidate, Nana Akufo Addo,
Former President Kufour, Myself the National
Chairman, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, Kwabena
Agyei Agyepong, Alan Kyerematen, Asamoah
Boateng, Dr. Konadu Apraku, Francis Addai
Nimoh, Joe Ghartey, amongst others in the
campaign.
United in decision, the NPP stalwarts and
members intend to support our Presidential
Candidate, Nana Akufo Addo in the campaign
to achieve a one-touch victory in 2016.
As the Chairman of the NPP, it would be
premature so to speak, for me to reveal our
party campaign strategy at whim.
I therefore entreat the general public and
especially members of the NPP to disregard
the said publication.
....Signed...
Paul Awentami Afoko
(National Chairman, NPP)
