Poturphy Campaigns In Western Region Kofi Poturphy , the coordinator of the National
Disaster Management Organization (NADMO), says
members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC)
want him to become the next national chairman of
the party.
According to him, his chances of winning the
national chairmanship position of the NDC were
bright.
The fact that the majority of the party members
want to me to become the next national chairman of
the NDC does not mean that the party is changing a
winning team, he said.
“All of us are members of the winning team from
the polling station agents to the national
executives, every one played critical role in
ensuring the party's victory in the last general
elections,' he explained.
He disclosed this in an interview with DAILY GUIDE
after interacting with some NDC delegates in the
Western Region behind closed doors yesterday.
Mr Poturphy travelled to the region for a four-day
campaign to interact with the party's members and
delegates ahead of the party's next national
congress.
“It's a constitutional provision and a
democratic principle that there should be fresh
elections after every four years and so there is
nothing wrong for me to contest for the position,'
he explained.
He pointed out that the nation was facing many
challenges and that the party needed someone like
him who could help provide solutions to the
problems.
The aspirant cited the collapse of the Ghana
Railways, poor road network, lack of jobs, as some
challenges confronting the nation.
'Creating jobs has become a major problem and I
think as a party we should complement the efforts
of the government to solve this problem,' he
added.
Mr. Poturphy, who is also the National Coordinator
of the National Disaster Management Organization
(NADMO), stated that if the NDC government
delivers to the satisfaction of Ghanaians, the
party would easily win the next general
elections.
Mr Poturphy indicated that as a unifier, he would
work hard to unite the party's members,
particularly the aggrieved ones.
He was optimistic President John Dramani Mahama
would win a second term in office under his
leadership.
Mr. Poturphy later met cadres in Western Region
and paid a courtesy on the Regional Minister, Paul
Evans Aidoo. Source - Daily Guide
