Mpohor Constituency New Patriotic Party (NPP) will experience in its first time parliamentary primaries election since it was carved out from then Mpohor Wassa East Constituency. The party people in this constituency are very intelligent and strategic that in order to gain grounds in the newly created constituency, nobody was allowed to contest the then and now MP in the constituency.
This decision in itself wasn’t bad though but it has had negative effects on the party in terms of leadership and performance in the constituency. The constituency has not tasted any benefits of internal competition before as a result of this decision.From all indications, the story is now different as compared to 2015. The writings and signs are clear that there’s going to be a keen competition in the upcoming parliamentary primaries.
The party activists are entreated to embrace this as a way of strengthening the leadership and erasing any self centered style of leadership in the constituency.In reality, this seemingly competition is bearing fruits in the constituency in the area of job for the youth, accountability and development from the party leadership.
NPP can’t afford to fail the constituency hence it’s much prudent to field a someone who is development oriented and has a strong human relationship.It’s obvious certain characters will try to influence the process with goodies but the delegates must be resolute to decide who’s best fit to lead the elephant fraternity in the constituency.
Choosing a competent person to lead the party in 2020 general election is the first stage to protecting and safeguarding the seat.Let’s engage in practical intelligence rather than theoretical rhetoric to developing the constituency because that’s what the people need. This is the time people with special interests will feed you with sugar coated words just to sympathize with them.
Sympathy has started begging to find favour in the eyes of the delegates and this is a dangerous thing if the delegates fall for this.Differentiating between the reality and rhetoric will help choose a true leader to lead the constituency for the battle ahead of us. The party delegates in the constituency have never disappointed in choosing a good leader to lead them and this one won’t be exclusive.
Long live Mpohor Constituency NPP
Long live Ghana
