NPP flagbearer Nana Akuffo Addo has charged party faithfuls in Greater Accra to ensure the NPP wins majority of popular votes and parliamentary seats in next year’s Presidential and Parliamentary elections.
He said this is the only way to ensure the party wins the 2016 elections.
Nana Addo was speaking at a rally in Tema to climax the first phase of his rise and build tour of the country.
He told the supporters Greater Accra remains a key region that has to be won and challenged them to seek a national agenda instead of an ethnic agenda.
"The number one region in terms of population in Ghana today is no longer Ashanti Region. It is Greater Accra. The region is now the most populous region in the country.
"Right from Kwame Nkrumah's time until now they say you have to win Greater Accra to win Ghana. We have to win Greater Accra to win Ghana in 2016.
"In 2000 we did it and we can repeat it in 2016. If we are going to win Greater Accra we have to have a language that appeals to everybody. Good positive language.
"We do not have a tribal agenda. We have a Ghanaian agenda. That is what is going to take us to power," he said to a rousing applause from a number of the supporters who attended the rally.
The tour took him to the Volta, Eastern and the Upper Regions of the country where he met regional and constituency executives as well as some supporters of the party.
