The Crusading GUIDE newspaper has reported in its Tuesday edition that it has picked signals that Mr. Egbert Faibille Jnr. Managing Editor of the Ghanaian Observer newspaper is likely to contest for the Dome Kwabenya Constituency Parliamentary seat on the ticket of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) during the 2008 general elections.
In an interview with the newspaper on Monday, Mr. FaibiBe Jnr. confirmed that he was nursing political ambitions in order to get a bigger platform to serve his country Ghana.
According to the Crusading Guide, Mr. Faibille, a lawyer, also disclosed that he had had a number of high profile meetings with some NPP party leaders on the issue and very soon a concrete decision would be arrived at.
The newspaper report said he has however denied picking registration forms to join the NPP. He said that would just be a symbolic gesture, but the essential thing was the idea he was contemplating on, and the discussions he was involved in.
Asked if his decision to join the NPP would not be a betrayal of the cause of his party, the Convention Peoples Party (CPP), Mr. Faibille Jnr. said though he was a sympathizer of the Nkrumaists, he does not have a CPP membership card.
He told the newspaper that there are Nkrumaists in various political parties and no matter what party he joins, it would not compromise his position as an Nkrumaist sympathizer.
The journalist/legal brain, answering a question as to why he could not use his position as a journalist to serve the nation, said serving the country as a journalist has a limit to which one could reach, and serving the country as a politician would also be on another level altogether.
