As the governing NDC national delegates\u2019 congress draws closer, majority of NDC delegates in the Northern Region have endorsed Kofi Portuphy\u2019s candidature as the party\u2019s national Chairman.<\/p>\n

The current NADMO Boss is competing with Alhaji Hudu Yahaya, Dan Abodakpi and the incumbent, Dr. Kwabena Adjei.<\/p>\n

At a news conference in Tamale, 310 delegates from the 31 constituencies in the Northern Region openly declared their unconditional support for Kofi Portophy.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”zMyQIrxxSkm4rSfdI9yiUWFRyFdDiKDA”]In a statement read by the NDC Gambaga\/Nalerigu constituency Secretary, Iddrisu Sampah, the Northern Region NDC delegates described Kofi Portuphyas an astute and time tested politician who could retain the party in power come the 2016 general elections.<\/p>\n

According to the Northern Region NDC delegates, the party risks losing the 2016 general elections if Kofi Portuphy\u00a0does not get the nod as national Chairman.<\/span><\/p>\n

They explained, \u201cThe 2016 general elections promises to be more challenging for the NDC as we have to use legitimate means possible to ensure the NDC\u2019s third consecutive victory and His Excellency John Dramani Mahama\u2019s second term as President: to achieve this we need not just a Chairman but one who is more credible, more interesting, more concrete, more persuasive and more experienced in matters of people\u2019s mobilization.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The statement added, \u201cWe are confident that the person whose credentials are in synch with the above attributes and can lead us in the pursuit of this laudable objective is none other than Dr. Kofi Portophy.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"???????????????????????????????\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Northern Region NDC delegates opined that Kofi Portuphy\u00a0could not be compared with his other competitors judging him by his pedigree in Ghana\u2019s democratic dispensation.<\/span><\/p>\n

By extension, the Northern Region NDC delegates endorsed Kofi Adams for the National Organizer position, Kobby Fiagbe as Propaganda Secretary, Kamel Norshie as Treasurer, Harry Zakour and Lawyer Mohammed Alhassan as vice Chairmen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHaving taken cognizance of the contestants putting themselves forward for those positions and having assessed their strengths and weaknesses, we firmly believe that Kofi Adams is suitable for the National Organizer position, Kobby Fiagbe as Propaganda Secretary, Kamel Norshie as Treasurer, Harry Zakour and Lawyer Mohammed Alhassan as vice Chairmen.\u201d<\/p>\n

They thus appealed to all NDC delegates across the country to on December 20th<\/sup>in Kumasi elect into office Kofi Portophy and all the aforementioned aspirants for the various positions.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe expect nothing but one touch victory for all our preferred candidates at the party\u2019s upcoming national delegate\u2019s congress scheduled for Kumasi on December 20th<\/sup>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
