An aspiring General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr. Charles Onuawonto Bissue, has defied a heavy downpour on Thursday, June 15, 2022, to officially file his nomination forms which have given him legal backing to contest the position of the NPP General Secretaryship.
Mr. Bissue who is a staunch member of the NPP filed his nomination documents around 1:17 PM on Wednesday, June 15, 2022, after the leadership of the National Election Committee of the party had scrutinized the forms and certified his documents.
He has not gone through any hectic of filing his nomination papers to contest the NPP secretaryship race because he is in good standing as a member of the NPP who usually pays his dues regularly.
This development has clarified that Mr. Bissue is the best candidate for the NPP secretaryship position and that voting for him to win the slot would give the chance to the party to win both the presidential and parliamentary elections in 2024.
Addressing the journalists in the NPP headquarters in Accra after filling the papers, Mr. Bissue reiterated that the current national executives of the NPP have to be changed and select the new crops to steer the affairs of the party going into the 2024 general elections.
According to him, he believes that he is the man for the job and called on the delegates and members of the NPP to vote massively to win the race to unseat the incumbent General Secretary of the NPP, John Boadu.
The former Western Regional General Secretary of the party reasons his experiences garnered over the years has prepared him for the position at the national level, saying when elected the General Secretary, he would certainly perform well in transforming the structures and foundations of the NPP in national, regional and constituency levels.
“If I can deliver at the regional level then it means at the national level, I should be able to tell you which seats we will win and name them. Politics is now scientific, it is about strategy and not mere talk anymore,” told journalists.
He indicated that his agenda when given the opportunity to lead the party as the General Secretary is to solidify the structures within the party, as well as the credibility and fortunes of the party in general.
He emphasized that the dynamics going into the 2024 elections and future events are exclusively different from what the party and its leadership had experienced, adding that “the new season calls for new but great leadership”.
He noted that the NPP has accomplished great feats yet there is more to be undertaken to modernize it and make it more effective in dealing with its internal affairs as much as it aims at winning the votes of the Ghanaian electorate.
The General Secretary hopeful indicated that the change he wishes to affect in the party is anchored on inclusiveness and sustainable collaborations within the party and with the government.
The New Patriotic Party has set July 14 to July 16 to elect new National Officers for the party.
Other names contesting John Boadu for the General Secretary position are Charles Bissue, Musah Superior, Justine Kodua, and Frederick Opare-Ansah.
