Some New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters in Bawku in the Upper East Region have pledged to ensure a violence-free parliamentary primaries in the area.<\/p>\n
They made the pledge in an interview with Citi News<\/strong> after they were\u00a0cautioned to refrain from\u00a0politics of insults and acts that can bring the party’s upcoming parliamentary primaries into disrepute.<\/p>\n Addressing NPP youth in Bawku, Regional youth Organizer, \u00a0Ibrahim Bashiru said the youth has been the major concern as far as the NPP \u00a0primaries are concern in the constituency.<\/p>\n He further admonished the youth to be decorum in supporting any candidate in order to secure the Bawku seat for the NPP adding that\u00a0“we (NPP) have the upper hand of winning the seat but unity is key.”<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n “I have always said the NPP’s biggest bane is the disunity among us and it is important that going into 2016 elections we forge ahead in unity. Our difference, personal differences, selfish interest shouldn’t be placed beyond the party because if you have the youth united then obviously you will have a successful primaries,” he added.<\/p>\n Mr. Bashiru \u00a0also reiterated that it was important to admonish both the four aspiratants contesting the primaries in the constituency and the youth to have a healthy campaign devoid of politics of insults and violence before, during and after the primaries so that whoever emerges as the parliamentary candidate gets the support of all to rescue the seat from the NDC.<\/p>\n
