CPP Tough On Bad Nuts

CPP Exec. being sworn in

CHAIRMAN OF the Convention Peoples’ Party (CPP), Ladi Nylander has said that after its delegates’ congress, the party will smoke out all individuals who do not want the party to be victorious in the 2012 general elections and beyond.

 

According to him, the party’s executives have identified some people whose activities, actions and ideologies do not tally with the objectives and vision of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and the CPP in general.

He added that these people have also decided to tarnish the party’s hard won reputation as the most successful and peaceful political part in the political history of Ghana.

The CPP Chairman made this known on Saturday when Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem (KEEA) constituency executives of the party held their delegates’ congress to elect new executives to steer the party’s affairs in the area.

In his address, Mr. Nylander disclosed that the CPP had 1.5% votes in the 2008 elections because some greedy crooks within the party did not want it to come to power.

He added that through investigations, the party had been able to identify all the problems the CPP faced during the 2008 elections which contributed to its abysmal performance and noted the activities of some elements within the party caused their defeat.

In order to win the 2012 general elections, Mr. Nylander said the CPP has considered seven key points that would ensure success adding that grassroots members have been fully equipped to disseminate the party’s agenda to the masses to win over more sympathizers.

“Because of the seven-point policy that we have put on the board neither NDC nor NPP will come close to getting even 50 percent of the votes. By the time the Electoral Commission declares the results, CPP will be the winner, mark it on the wall,” he declared.

On his part, the CPP 2008 Presidential Candidate, Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom revealed that “President John Evans Atta Mills has totally lost focus driving the nation on a rough road without considering the importance to move unto a better road.”

According to him, the economy is performing so badly that if Ghanaians do not have a change of mind and vote for the CPP, no government will take the nation to the Promised Land that Ghanaians desire.

Dr. Nduom noted that though 2012 will be a tough year for all political parties, Ghanaians have to reconsider the party that brought them independence.

He therefore appealed to all political parties and their supporters not to utter insults and create unnecessary tension during the 2012 campaign in order to guarantee a peaceful, free and fair election.
