Second Vice Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, Sheikh T.B Damba is appealing to party sympathisers to stand united as the party awaits the Supreme Court judgment, on the petition challenging the declaration of John Mahama as winner of the December 2012 presidential elections.He admonished party functionaries to also desist from making statements that tend to create divisions among the rank and file of the party.Sheikh Damba in a release issued Sunday and copied to Myjoyonline.com said: "Rather than struggling internally for positions, let us desist from statements that tend to create divisions among the rank and file of the party because the race for National positions will only thrive on a stronger and formidable foundation"."It is once said; the greatest thing that has ever happened in human civilization is the man or woman who lives and practice tolerance. The fiber of Ghana’s young democracy is being tested waiting for what becomes of it as the whole world has pointed their lenses on those in the ring and those at the ringsides waiting for the final bell to ring".The Vice Chair further urged the party's supporters particularly those at the grassroot level, not to feel dejected by the seemingly harsh comments from some senior members of the party adding, that emphasises the fact that the NPP is "a party that believes in all-inclusiveness".The statement further emphasised: "The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is neither a party for Southerners nor any ethnic group as some people are made to believe, particularly our brothers and sisters in the Zongo and Muslim communities"."I want to emphasise that, NPP is a party that believes that, Christianity and Islam go hand-in-hand. Due to this, NPP as a party has five Northerners as National Party Executives. Three of the five are practicing Muslims which defeats the unfounded allegations that NPP is a party for Southerners. In fact, it is a party that believes in all-inclusiveness."
