Don’t fight my enemies – Akufo-Addo implores supporters
Former presidential candidate of the opposition
New Patriotic Party, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo
has told his followers to avoid verbal wars with
internal opponents.

“I appeal to all NPP supporters to remain calm
and focused, and desist from actions that
undermine the unity of the party,” Nana
Akufo-Addo said in his Easter message to
Ghanaians.

“In particular, I urge all NPP members, who
support my bid to lead the party for the 2016
elections, not to be provoked by comments or
actions, and be dragged into any discourse that
may damage the party’s forward march to victory.
This is but a contest between members of one
family, the Great Elephant family. We must,
therefore, be guided and guarded constantly by an
uncompromising sense of unity, fellowship and
greater purpose,” Nana Akufo Addo implored.

He reiterated his appeal to “all NPP members to
rally behind the newly elected national officers
as they rapidly roll out their plans for victory
in 2016.”

According to him, “the NPP has always stood for
competition and choice, and I am a firm believer
in these principles. Just as delegates of our
party have always done, they will, at the right
time, choose the candidate who they believe will
best serve the interests of the party going
forward.”

He said: “The people of Ghana are looking up to
us to make the necessary arrangements that will
give them the confidence to trust us with the
mandate to serve them once again,” adding that:
“Ghanaians are looking to the NPP to restore
hope and offer the kind of purposeful leadership
that will speed up the development of our nation
and the prosperity of every Ghanaian.”
