Deputy Upper West Regional Minister, Mr Caesar Kale, says the National Democratic Congress (NDC), is poised to win the 2012 elections and has urged the newly elected constituency executives of the party to see that as a challenge and work towards its achievement.According to him, the constituency election is all about getting a formidable team to work towards the 2012 elections.“We are not conducting the elections to oust anybody of any position; we want to elect people to ensure that the NDC wins power to continue to carry out its development agenda to benefit the people," he said.
Mr Kale was addressing the Lawra/Nandom constituency delegates' conference of the NDC at Lawra.He said the election is not a do or die affair, and called on supporters and sympathizers of the party to remain united and work together in the interest of the NDC.Mr Kale reminded the supporters and executives of the NDC in the Lawra/Nandom constituency about the task ahead to win back the seat they lost to the NPP."The old executives of the party had worked hard to win the elections for the NDC in 2008, it is now left to the new executives to also win the 2012 elections for the party, and this task must be achieved at all cost," he announced.
Mr Kale warned supporters of the party to be disciplined and law abiding, and avoid engaging in negative activities that has the tendency of damaging the good reputation of the NDC and its leaderships.
He said the regional executives are aware that some people in the opposition have started going round the communities, asking supporters what the NDC has done for them, in its 10 months rule.
“The attempts by the opposition should not discourage anybody in the NDC, because government is aware of their plight and would soon come out with good policies and programmes to benefit them,” he added.
Alhaji Nator Naa Issahaque, Second Regional Vice Chairman of the NDC, urged former constituency executives who have contested elections and lost, not to be discouraged, but to collaborate with the new executives to work hard to win the 2012 elections for the NDC.He said: "whether you are an executive member or a supporter, we must see ourselves as belonging to one family with a common goal and sense of purpose.Lawra District Chief Executive, Mr Samson Abu, said there are no camps in the NDC in the constituency as people are alleging, noting: "Our camp is the NDC".
He, however, warned that those who have the feeling of belonging to different camps should know that they are not members of the NDC.
The 285 delegates elected a 30 member executive with Mr Moses Atsem as chairman, Mr Afandi Mahmud, vice chairman and Mr Francis Kokoih, Secretary, while Mr Dominic Ziniyel was elected unopposed as vice secretary.
Mr Nicholas Naazie took the post of constituency organiser, Madam Abena Asuma, women organiser, and Mr Adams Mohazu and Mr. Paul B. Dery took the Propaganda and Youth organiser positions respectively.
Mr Nyolee A. Ament was elected unopposed as deputy organiser, Mr Benjamin Boro, Treasurer, Mr Jafaru Mohammed, deputy treasurer, and Mr Atare A. Abdul-Rashid, deputy secretary.
Eight others were also elected as members of the executives.Mr Atsem, on behalf of the new executives assured the NDC of victory in the 2012 elections in the constituency.Source: GNA
