Paul Afoko<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

An aspiring national chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Paul Afoko has indicated that despite the setback he suffered during the investigations into his\u00a0alleged <\/span>arrest, he will rigorously campaign to win the seat.<\/p>\n

The National Election Committee of the NPP on Wednesday cleared Mr. Afoko<\/span> to contest the national chairmanship position of the party after allegations of arrest and narcotic dealings were made against him.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Eyewitness News<\/strong>, Mr. Afoko<\/span>\u00a0 narrated his campaigning has so far been energy sapping due to the development because \u201cI ended up spending most of the time talking about this petition.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also mentioned that a lot of time was spent in re-assuring his supporters \u201cto trust me, to believe me that I had never ever been convicted and so they should stay the course with me and that it will be okay.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to him, although the NPP has a month to its national delegates congress, he will do his possible best to get his message across to the delegates so as to win the elections.<\/p>\n

Mr. Afoko<\/span> urged party members to take a cue from his experience and stay united to fight the cause of the party.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cLesson will be learnt\u2026<\/span>we all need to take our time and reflect somberly on what has transpired.\u201d<\/p>\n

He however clarified that he has no intentions of pursuing the individual who petitioned the leadership of the party.<\/p>\n
