Mr. Omari Wadie in an open letter to the party\u2019s National Chairman and General Secretary says the party should conduct both the Presidential and Parliamentary primaries on the same day to save the party\u2019s time and resources.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Citi News<\/b>, the former Ayawaso West Wugon Constituency Chairman said the NPP will go into the 2016 election united if such a proposal is adopted.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think instead of waiting and going through all these noisy primaries\u2026we should be able to pair the two primaries so we can have it all on the same day and finish with it and focus on the 2016 elections\u2026 it will help the party and put everybody\u2019s heart at peace,\u201d Mr. Wadie explained.<\/p>\n
Commenting on the issue of cost, Mr. Wadie noted that the party and the delegates would save themselves from extra cost if the party implements the proposal.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe delegates who would vote at the Presidential primary are the same people who would vote at the Presidential primary so why don\u2019t we bring them together to come and cast one vote\u2026 we can have both primaries at one cost,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
