The Executives of the New Patriotic Party(NPP) in the Western, and Central Regions have unanimously declared their support for three candidates, Freddy Blay, John Boad,Sammy Awuku  and Dominic Eduah, who are vying for the Chairmanship, General Secretary, National Organizer and National Youth Organizer positions respectively.

The declaration was made in the presence of several Ministers of state including Joe Ghartey, minister in Charge of Railways Development, Deputy Minister of Health, Aviation and Chieftaincy, as well as the two NPP chairmen for Western and Central regions Francis Ndede Siah and Robert Kutin. Also  regional executives from both regions and members of parliament, constituency executives, MMDCEs and other supporters numbering over two hundred made it to the all important event ahead of the polls.

Addressing the gathering, the Secretary for the Western Region NPP and a presidential staffer,  Charles Nanabayin Onuawonto Cromwel Bissue, stated that they decided to rally for support for the aforementioned candidates based on their track record in the past.

He said these candidates have proved to be outstanding and strong leaders during the unstable times in the life of the party and managed to wrestle political power for the party.

Chairman Freddie Blay for instance, according to Mr. Bissue “emerged as our Joshua when our party was in political turbulence in 2014…It was somehow doom and gloom for most of our members, but he [Freddie Blay] steadied the ship, which led to our historic victory in the recent general elections.”

“…at this present time, we do not believe that trying new hands in our quest to hold political power is politically strategic” and that “an experienced pair of hands…will solidify the party’s base” Bissue said.
