The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Subin, Isaac Osei has cautioned the party to focus on strengthening its structures rather than engaging in a debate over who becomes the next flagbearer.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the moment I will urge all of us to concentrate on our assisting the new executives to have the full complement and to ensure that we can develop a well-oiled machinery capable of taking power from the NDC [National Democratic Congress],\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n
According to him the important thing right now is to have \u2018\u2019a good solid machine\u2019\u2019 that will rescue power from the NDC.<\/p>\n
\u2018\u2019If we have a good solid machine, I am quite sure that anybody who eventually emerge as our flagbearer will be able to unite the party for victory,\u2019\u2019 he noted.<\/p>\n
Party rumours indicate that some members are tipping, Isaac Osei to contest Nana Akufo-Addo for the flagbearership slot, but he told Citi News<\/strong> that settling for such a position involves a lot of soul searching which he has not thoroughly done yet.<\/p>\n Mr. Isaac Osei also said Paul Afoko\u2019s main challenge is to supervise a fair election that would produce a flagbearer.<\/p>\n \u2018\u2019\u2026what is important is for the new leadership to be fair, they have to be fair and apply the rules of the game,\u2019\u2019 he opined.<\/p>\n The NPP elected new National Executives to steer the affairs of the party on Saturday in Tamale.<\/p>\n The election saw a totally new breed of executives, elected by the delegates of the party with both incumbent Chairman and General Secretary of the party losing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By: Evans Effah\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n
