Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey to take a break from active politics
Defeated New Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman, Jake
Obetsebi-Lamptey has stated that he will take a
break from politics soon.

According to him, despite his ‘shocking’ 66
votes in the just ended delegates’ conference
held in Tamale, he is not in “pains” but need
a rest.

“No I am not in pains…I am very well. This is
a job application and I offered myself. I was not
accepted,I am disappointed but I move on. I
don’t feel like Jake is a human being who has
been rejected, so there is no pain for me,” he
said.

Speaking on Accra-based Adom FM, Jake vowed to
work hand-in-hand with the newly elected Chairman,
Paul Afoko to ensure the NPP’s success in the
2016 polls.

“I will work with him [Afoko] because the NPP is
a major part of my life. If I don’t work with
Paul Afoko who will I work with?” he
questioned.

Adding that, “I am meeting with him [Paul Afoko]
on Wednesday [16 April 2014] to have a chat and
see if there is anything I can do”.

Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey also asked party supporters
to rally behind the newly elected executives for
victory in 2016 after most of his executives lost
their re-election bid when delegates voted for
Paul Afoko and other contenders to lead a new set
of executives at the party’s conference on
Saturday April 12.

Nonetheless, Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey hinted that he
will take a break from politics.

“I am going to have a rest…going for a holiday
to think about a whole lot of things including
writing a book,” he said.
