Nana Akufo-Addo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There is more pressure on the New Patriotic Party\u2019s ( NPP) 2012 presidential candidate, Nana Akufo- Addo to run for the third consecutive time despite asking for some time to announce his decision.<\/p>\n

Some Members of Parliament in the Eastern Region and newly elected regional executives of the NPP,who paid a courtesy call on Akufo-Addo at his Nima residence on Monday insisted that they will compel Mr. Akufo Addo to lead the party in 2016 even if he decides not to.<\/p>\n

According to Citi FM\u2019s Sammy Wiafe, although it had not been confirmed that Nana Akufo- Addo will run again, there were clear indications that he would be elected as the Presidential candidate of the party.<\/p>\n

This, he said, was evident in the regional executives\u2019 statement that \u201cwe hope to see you in 2016 when you start your campaigns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInfact what they said was that whether he decides to run or not to run, they will force him to run,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He also stated that the executives asked Mr. Akufo -Addo to make up his mind so they can start campaigning for them.<\/p>\n

Nana Akufo- Addo announced his decision to \u00a0take some time off politics after after a nine member panel of Supreme Court justices dismissed a petition brought by three stalwarts of the party who alleged fraud during the 2012 presidential elections.<\/p>\n

This ,however, did not sit well with some members of the party who are insisting Mr. Akufo -Addo leads the party in 2016.<\/p>\n
