General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party Nana Ohene Ntow has dismissed allegations that the current executives are manipulating events in the party to perpetuate their stay in office.The four-year term of the Mac Manu led administration is scheduled to end in December this year, but the postponement of the National Delegates Conference to February 6, 2009 means elections for new executives will have to be on hold.A group calling itself the Patriots Club accused the executives of deliberately delaying the elections to extend their stay in office."We are in opposition now. The earlier we put our acts together so that we can unify ourselves and move forward the better for all of us.This current executive body is supposed to finish its mandate this year, it hasn’t happened. We have so many constituency elections being contested in the court. We shouldn’t be having this kind of thing. This is making the party weak,” Robert Ayim spokesperson of the group, told Joy News on Monday.But in a reaction Nana Ntow said the continued stay in office of the current administration is not an aberration of the constitution.According to him, the national council, the second highest decision making body of the party by a resolution ruled that the current executives should have their stay in office extended a while longer at least after the polling station, constituency and regional elections have been held.Having successfully organized the polling station and constituency elections, Nana Ntow said the regional elections are underway and will end in December this year which will then set the stage for the National elections.The current administration he said has no plans to over stay their mandate, more so when the party chairman, Peter Mac Manu has made it quite clear he was not going for run again for the position.He gave the assurance that the executives have the best interest of the party at heart and will do nothing to jeopardize the party’s chances in the 2012 elections.Story by Nathan Gadugah/Myjoyonline.com/Ghana\`
