The office of Nana Akufo-Addo has denied reports that he is campaigning for his favorites ahead of the New Patriotic Party\u2019s (NPP) national delegate\u2019s conference.<\/p>\n

Former chief of staff under the erstwhile Kufuor administration, Kwadwo Mpiani has raised concerns over the rumors that Nana Addo has been campaigning for some people contesting for executive positions.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mpiani said such a move from a potential flagbearer could be dangerous for party unity.<\/p>\n

But spokesperson for Nana Akufo-Addo, Mustapha Hamid maintained there is no truth in the reports being peddled around about Nana Addo.<\/p>\n

He explained that it will be difficult for Nana Addo as an individual who has a stake in the NPP \u201cnot to have preferences; after all, he is also going to vote for candidates so definitely he has a preference but as an experienced politician,\u201d he will not openly show support and campaign for specific candidates.<\/p>\n

Mr. Hamid maintained that Nana Addo will not go against his principles of democracy and will therefore not interfere in the choice of people to lead the party.<\/p>\n

The NPP is scheduled to elect their national executives at their delegates\u2019 conference in Tamale next month.<\/p>\n

The candidates are vigorously campaigning across the country ahead of the conference.<\/p>\n
