<\/p>\nMajority leader of Parliament, Hon. Alban Kingsford Sumana Bagbin, has marketed the Member of Parliament for Tamale South, Hon Haruna Iddrisu, as a good presidential material capable of leading the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for\u00a0future elections.<\/p>\n
According to him, the Tamale South Legislator known as the NDC\u2019s heavyweight champion in the Northern Region, possesses all the qualities of a good politician\u00a0to lead the nation.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He thus\u00a0cautioned NDC supporters in the Tamale South Constituency against truncating Haruna Iddrisu\u2019s parliamentary career\u00a0at the 2016 polls.<\/p>\n
Hon. Alban Bagbin was speaking at the Tamale South Legislator\u2019s official campaign launch dubbed, \u201cOperation 70,000 votes\u201d for Haruna Iddrisu and President John Dramani Mahama in 2016.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He touted Haruna Iddrisu\u2019s credentials saying, \u201cYou have a capable, competent and affable Member of Parliament who deserves to represent you in Parliament for over 20 terms than me.\u201d<\/p>\n
He recalled that, \u201cHaruna worked with me as a young lawyer and I want to tell you that he has certain qualities that I do not have as the Majority leader.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Majority leader said the massive turnout at the campaign launch signaled victory for Haruna Iddrisu and President John Dramani Mahama on December 7.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Hon. Alban Bagbin posited that, the NDC\u2019s umbrella symbol represents unity whereas that of the NPP\u2019s elephant typifies destruction.<\/p>\n
He is convinced northerners\u2019 loyalty to the principles and values of the NDC, could not be underestimated, and encouraged them to remain supportive of the party.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The Tamale Central MP who doubles as the Minister for Roads and Highways, Hon. Inusah Fuseini, explained why President Mahama deserves a second term in office.<\/p>\n
He said the Mahama led NDC administration\u2019s track record on infrastructure development in the sectors of roads, health, education and water is unprecedented, hence his call for President Mahama\u2019s continuity.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
He stressed that the NDC has the Northern Region at heart and cited the upgrading and rehabilitation of the Tamale Teaching Hospital and the construction of the eastern corridor road, among other projects to buttress his submission.<\/p>\n
Hon. Inusah Fuseini asserted that, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the NPP, have nothing new to offer Ghanaians and thereby cautioned the electorate against any move to vote for the Nana-Bawumia ticket.<\/p>\n
The Tamale Central MP\u2019s presence dispelled widespread rumours that he is at loggerheads with Haruna Iddrisu over political supremacy within the NDC in the Northern Region.<\/p>\n
Minister for Communications, Dr. Omane Boamah, thanked northerners for choosing the NDC as their number one political lineage.<\/p>\n
He told the enthusiastic crowd that the NDC abhors discrimination among its fraternity unlike the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).<\/p>\n
He discounted the NPP\u2019s claim to be a credible alternative to the governing NDC with President Mahama as the leader and Presidential nominee for the 2016 polls.<\/p>\n
Dr. Omane Boamah chastised Nana Akufo Addo for his numerous campaign promises ahead of the 2016 polls.<\/p>\n
The NDC’s National Youth Organizer, Siidi Abubakari, urged the nation\u2019s youth and women to maximize the party\u2019s electoral fortunes at the December 7 polls.<\/p>\n
He showed appreciation for President Mahama\u2019s ability to make it possible for the 2016 Hajj Pilgrims to fly direct from the upgraded Tamale Airport to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n
An elated Haruna Iddrisu briefly praised his constituents for their unflinching\u00a0support over the years and promised to continue to be answerable to them.<\/p>\n
