Stop the
"blame game," NPP supporters told
WA, Jan. 9, GNA – Supporters of the New
Patriotic Party (NPP), have been asked to stop blaming
individuals and groups of people they perceived were the
cause of the party’s defeat in Election 2008 and rather
unite to face the challenges ahead.
The defeat should not dampen their spirit but it should
serve as a lesson that must help urge them to correct their
mistakes to enable them win elections in the future.
Mr. John Ibrahim Donkor, Wa Central constituency organizer
of NPP, made the call in an interview with GNA at Wa on
Thursday.
He stressed that this was not the first time NPP had lost
elections, saying “When the party lost elections in 1992 and
1996, those defeats did not demoralize us. We went back to
strategize and God rewarded us for our hard work with
victory in the elections in 2000”.
Mr Donkor urged members and supporters to reorganize and
strengthen the party’s structures for 2012 elections.
He called on the national leadership of NPP to resolve all
differences that worked against the party in Election 2008
and find ways of motivating party activists to start
mobilizing support for the next elections.
Mr. Donkor commended NPP supporters in the Constituency for
voting for the party in the last elections.
He said even though NPP did not win in the constituency in
the last polls, votes attained compared to previous election
results indicated that the party was growing from strength
to strength in the area.
