Accra, Aug. 13, – Mr Alban Sumana
K. Bagbin, Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament and Member of Parliament for
Kaleo, has declared his intention to contest the Presidential Primaries of the
National Democratic Congress (NDC) scheduled for December 7, 2018.
A letter addressed to the General
Secretary of the NDC, Mr Johnson Aseidu Nketiah said: “I have taken this
decision after serious introspection and wide consultations with the Elders,
Executives and the rank and file of the party”.
In a copy of the letter obtained
by the Ghana News Agency in Accra on Monday, Mr Bagbin assured members of the
NDC of a campaign devoid of insults and personality attacks; and his team with
the active support and advice of the elders and executives will conduct a
virtuous, decorous, civil and matured campaign.
The letter also states that Mr
Bagbin and his team will share the right information with members of the party
to enable them to take the right decision towards restoring the lost glory of
the NDC.
It also assured the party
leadership that the supreme interest of the NDC will be the uppermost in all
what his team will seek to attain.
Mr Bagbin said: “As members of
the NDC strive to build a strong party to win Election 2020 and beyond, it is
my fervent prayer that good conscience and fair play prevail to all in this
contest”.
He prayed that the social
credentials of the NDC would shine in order to persuade the people and give
hope to Ghanaians for a better future, thus pave the way for victory in 2020.
The NDC on August 2, held a press
conference directing prospective Presidential Candidates to officially inform
the party of their intentions before embarking on any campaign.
