NPP activist appeals to Party's hierarchy

Suhum, July 10, GNA - Mr Samuel Oduro, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) activist, has appealed to the Party's hierarchy to resolve differences between the former 51 polling station Executives of the party and the Member of Parliament for Suhum Constituency, Mr Fredrick Opare Ansah, to enable the party to win both the parliamentary and presidential elections in the area.

He noted that the differences had brought division among supporters of the party with some of them threatening to vote “skirt and blouse” in the December polls.

Throwing more light on the disagreement, Mr Oduro said during the 2008 parliamentary primary between Mr Opare Ansah and Mr Bryan Akyeampong, both of them had 51 votes each and that the national executive later asked Mr Opare Ansah to represent the constituency in the general election.

He said after Mr Opare Ansah won the election, he dismissed the 51 polling station executives and replaced them with his favourites.

Mr Oduro said that action brought about petty squabbles among party supporters till date.
