NPP AND THE WAY FORWARD -CHALLENGES TO THE NATIONAL PATRIOTIC PARTY DEVELOPMENT - RAYMOND NTIEDU (npp executive).
On election 2024,NPP victory is dependent on these key factors (Raymond Ntiedu - npp executive);
1. CPP and PNC even believes in our party but very much concerned about members UNITY and that I think can never be left out. The OSONO party cannot be underrated, we need unity. Money does not win election. If money can solely win election, John Agyekum Kuffour, wouldn't have become President in 2001 because NDC was the party in power and had all the resources than us. Same as 2016 where His Excellency Nana Addo won, NDC was in power by then and had all the resources, we can even make reference to 2000 election.
To the President of the Republic, the Vice President, Chief of Staff, Council of Elders, Members of Parliament, All Sector Ministers, MMDA'S, CEO'S, Directors of Institutions, Members of the office of the Presidency, Founders of various organisations, National executives, Regional executives, Constituency executives, Polling station executives and all party folks, the only key that wins an election is UNITY within a political party and this is what I seek to achieve primarily in this write up. Division is a negative drive to opposition and I will beseech all party members not to encourage it in the first place. And I repeat, Any constituency that preach divison among party members is a loss constituency in coming election 2024. Let us all reinforce unity whether we got separated in the previous election or not, because our own GENERAL SECRETARY and the PRESIDENT of the REPUBLIC have even stressed on that.
2. Another key factor of which NPP victory is dependent on in election 2024 is the kind of leaders we are going to elect starting from polling station executives, electoral area coordinators, constituency executives, regional executives, national executives, Member of Parliament and Flagbearer of the Party. The leaders we are going to elect will tell our success in the 2024 election. Electing these leaders is taking medicine to cure your sickness, hence we got to ensure that the medicine taken can fight our sickness or brouhaha but we don't take in medicine that will rather upsurge the sickness, this when done destruct a hard time decision making.
3. Furthermore, another key factor for Victory 2024 is the inter-relation between the various structures of the party and the positive effect on the party folks expecially the GRASSROOTS. If the shared resources and possibilities of the party doesn't reach the GRASSROOTS, then the party is gradually entering the opposition zone. Immediately the GRASSROOTS takes up an act of anger then the party goes divided and a big destruction set in. If all are thirsty and the water is shared just among the top officials whiles the GRASSROOTS are left out of the shared water, then they will also be peeved and eventually overreact which will totally affect the party's progress. Top officials are to ensure that all resources and opportunities are shared fairly and equitably and have make positive impact on party folks expecially THE GRASSROOTS.
4. Adding up, another key factor for victory are the Policies, programs and projects undertaken and put up by the government through institutions, organisations, MP'S, MMDA'S, Sector Ministers and other Party officials should be monitored. It must be well checked that it is rightfully implemented to benefit the nation than officials rather engaging in corrupt act and embezzlement and eventually leaving the project in an undesirable state or dilapidated.
5. The Communication base of a ruling party cannot be override. NPP communicators starting from the polling station to the national level should be given a workshop training either quarterly or annually on how to project programs, developmental project's and policies of the government and also be briefed on new developments or projects undertaken and implemented by the government. Some cash allowances should be allocated to each communicator every quarter for airtime on radio and TV stations.
These communicators should be linked with the party true callers and should be trained extensively on how to disseminate and communicate information at any point in time. They should be trained on how to champion the party as well as the government and this should be our utmost concern.
The party should set up communication team at every constituency and region to fast track projections of the government initiatives, policies and programs. MP'S and MMDA'S should have at least three solid communicators to project their works so that in the absence of one there is a replacement.
The introduction of NPP NATIONAL PROJECTS ADVOCACY should be seriously checked and financed. And all leaders appointed to man the program must be monitored in due course.
6. Lastly, BACKBITTING is another key that will determine the success of the party Victory in 2024. Some party folks always talking maliciously in the absence of a fellow. Party members have gone tired of backbitting within ourselves. This character assassination , scandalmorgering or revilement wouldn't augur well in a group. Slandering someone in their absence should be a no go area.
Party folks say things which are untrue about a fellow just to receive good face from MP'S, MMDA'S and Party executives. This act takes party to opposition hence should be a letdown on our side.
I would like to also use this platform to urge all MP'S, MMDA'S and Party executives to probe well into matters they hear from party folks concerning them or others before they react because not all of these are true.
