President John Agyekum Kufuor is asking for forgiveness from members of his New Patriotic Party, (NPP).

Addressing the NPP delegates’ congress on December 22, 2007, President Kufuor apologised to the rank and file of the party saying that every mistake he might have committed during the period of his stewardship as president of Ghana, was not deliberate and without any malice.

The President apologised for any act of commission and omission during the period of his stewardship.

The over 2300 delegates are still voting at the Great Hall of the University of Ghana, Legon to elect a flag bearer, at the time of writing this story around 18:16 GMT.

Present at the congress are members of the Council of State; Diplomatic Corps; the Clergy, the Council of Elders of the Party and representatives of other political parties.
