NPP VOLUNTEER GROUPS TO BE REGISTERED AND STREAMLINED - SAMMI AWUKU
The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Mr. Sammi Awuku has indicated that all volunteer groups affiliated to the party will be registered and have their activities streamlined.
He said this will begin to be operational from Tuesday, 10th September 2019.
According to him, the underpinning factor for this novelty is for the party to direct and properly structure the activities of all volunteer groups to be in sync with the party's national campaign activities for 2020.
The National Officers of the NPP had early this year met with the various volunteer groups affiliated to the NPP in efforts to fraternize with their leaders to map out strategies ahead of the 2020 elections.
Speaking on Oman Fm's hottest evening political show, "Boiling Point", he was confident that, the registration of these volunteer groups affiliated to the NPP will have their activities properly regulated.
"I sent a proposal to the Steering Committee and National Executive Committee of the party which was to allow all-volunteer groups affiliated to the NPP be registered"
"I have been given the green light by the Steering Committee to implement that," he said.
"Once these volunteer group affiliated to us are registered, then the rules and regulations governing the conduct of volunteer groups will be outlined to the group." Sammi Awuku ended.
NPP has enviable record of expanding economy - John Boadu
The General Secretary of
the New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu, has alluded that the NPP’s
opportunity of being in office for less than 3 years has an enviable record of
increasing the size of the economy which has unprecedentedly brought comfort to
the Ghanaian populace.
He noted that there was the need for all
well-meaning Ghanaians to ensure that the party stayed in power for several
years as that was the surest way of rebuilding the nation.
‘President Nana Addo inherited a tattered
economy from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and in less than 3 years,
he has expanded the economy’, John Boadu told Kwame Tutu on Anopa Nkomo on
Accra based Kingdom FM 107.7 in an exclusive studio interview.
He has asked the Ghanaian electorate to make a
dispassionate comparison of the economic performances of the two leading
political parties to propel an excellent decision to maintain the NPP in 2020.
The ruling party’s General Secretary reiterated
that governance was about social inclusion, good governance, creating jobs for
the people, ensuring better incomes and housing for workers, as well as
consolidating the economic gains made so far, and not resorting to propaganda
and deception.
‘The NPP government would continue to implement
social interventions that would inure to the benefit of Ghanaians, and
mentioned the port reforms, the Free Senior High School policy, reduction of
the benchmark values of imports, payment of the National Health Insurance
subscriptions, capitation grants, among others,’ he noted.
John Boadu, therefore, urged Ghanaians to be
alert and cross-check facts, and not to rely on figures that did not have any
credibility, especially when it’s coming from the NDC.
The NPP General-Secretary was of the conviction
that the NDC has discredited record on the management of the economy and they
could not pose credible facts to challenge the Nana Addo led government, hence
they have resorted to lies and propaganda to throw the dust into the eyes of
Ghanaians.
