Chairman COKA calls for early NPP congress
The former chairman of the Kwabre South constituency, Mr. Odeneho Kwaku Appiah, has pushed for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to call an early congress to choose the party’s flagbearer for the 2024 general elections.
This, in his opinion, would greatly aid the party in addressing all issues that would arise from the competition.
He has therefore urged the newly elected National Executives of the Party to submit a paper to the NEC asking it to consider an early congress rather than the one year to the elections that the Party’s constitution calls for when it is in power.
The call was made by Chairman COKA, as he is known in the political sphere, on Friday 26th August during an exclusive interview with Nhyira 104.5 FM, a local radio station in Kumasi.
The former head of the Association of NPP constituency chairmen and a candidate for NPP chairman of the Ashanti region in the 2022 conference, COKA, predicted that the party would break the eight.
I’m telling you that efforts are being made to break the 8 in any way necessary.
He claims that the NPP has already begun working on all of the identified challenges.
He informed the show’s host that ” We will be discussing our third term victory when you see me here in the following two years. We are making every effort to avoid the apathy that negatively impacted us (NPP) in 2008, he emphasized.
COKA asks Ghanaians to be patient with the government in light of the current economic crisis.
He assured Ghanaians that Nana Addo’s administration is working tirelessly to bring the country to the Promised Land.
“We will undoubtedly arrive in the Promised Land before 2024.”
Let us all be patient with the government and contribute our fair share to the economic recovery agenda.”
Concerning the cedi depreciation, Chairman COKA once again urged all Ghanaians, particularly traders, to refrain from purchasing dollars locally in order to relieve pressure on the dollar.
“We all have a role to play in terms of cedi depreciation,” he said. To relieve pressure on the dollar, our businessmen and women must refrain from trading or purchasing dollars in their transactions.
He bemoaned the fact that some individuals purposefully stir up panic about the dollar rate in the economy, and that this must be stopped.
