Flagbearer hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana
Akufo-Addo has resumed campaigning ahead of the party’s October 18
national delegates’ congress. After the overwhelming
81percent votes he received in Sunday’s super delegate’s congress, Nana Addo and
his campaign team say they are poised to get the final endorsement from the
140,000 delegates. The two-time presidential candidate will
also embark on a 10-day tour of the country to thank delegates for the
resounding victory they gave him. The Upper West Regional capital, Wa, will be
his first destination before moving to the Upper East Region. Nana Addo’s
spokesperson, Mustapha Hamid said his boss is bent on leading the NPP in the
2016 general elections. He said the campaign team has only five weeks to
convince the 140, 000 delegates to vote for Nana Addo. The party leadership
has so far brushed off pressure to allow Nana Addo represent the party without any contest
because of his emphatic win in Sunday’s congress. Nana Addo will have to face
off competition from Alan Kyeremanteng, Kofi Osei Ameyaw and Francis Addai
Nimo. The other contestant Joe Ghartey has
bowed out of the race.
