Accra, Dec 18, Ghanadot - The National
Council of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has
settled on February 6, 2010 as the date for
its National Delegates conference.
The conference will be used to elect new
national executive officers to serve the
party for the next four years.
This was confirmed by Nana Ohene Ntow
General Secretary of the NPP in Accra.
Though the conference was supposed to have
been held in December, 2009, the general
secretary explained the expansion of the
Electoral College has delayed constituency
and regional elections, two major elections
that should precede the National elections.
He dismissed reports the new date was as a
result of several postponement saying, the
earlier dates were only proposals from the
National Steering Committee and the National
Executive Committee of the party which were
all subject to approval by the National
Council.
He however, admitted that financial
constraints were always going to be a
challenge, he dismissed assertions that the
conference was postponed due to lack of
funds.
Ohene Ntow will be battling with key party
officials like Nkrabea Effa-Darteh, Mr Yaw
Buaben Asamoa, for the General Secretary
position of the party.
For the chairmanship position, Jake Obetsebi
Lamptey, Dr Wereko-Brobby, Stephen Ntim,
Felix Owusu Agyapong have so far publicly
declared their intention to vie for the
position.
