National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Paul Afoko maintains that he would not be used as conduit to promote, Mr. Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanteng\u2019s Presidential bidding.<\/p>\n

He was very instrumental in Mr. Alan Kyeremanteng\u2019s 2007 Presidential contest.<\/p>\n

His victory in Tamale was interpreted to mean a victory for Mr. Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanteng who has declared his intention to contest the NPP\u2019s flag bearer ship race.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, Mr. Paul Afoko in an interview with Citi News<\/strong> reassured NPP supporters that he will stay neutral in the NPP\u2019s flag bearer ship race.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have said this several times and I even said it on the platform when I was delivering the acceptance speech on behalf of the newly elected executives.\u201d<\/p>\n

I said, \u201cOn the point of unity, the owners of the party, the delegates spoke clearly; they told us all that we have to unite and I went round telling everybody that I am a unifier and that I have no camp.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Afoko thus dispelled rumours that he will secretly promote Mr. Alan Kyeremanteng\u2019s Presidential bid and therefore called for party unity for the purpose of winning the 2016 general elections.<\/p>\n

Paul Afoko was overwhelmingly elected as national Chairman of the NPP in Tamale.<\/p>\n

He campaigned on party unity and rekindling the spirit of the NPP as then Northern Peoples Party to make it attractive to electorates in northern Ghana.<\/p>\n
