Performance Of NPP Leadership, The Worst In Party�s History - Nyaho Tamakloe

A leading member of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe is calling for a total overhaul of the party current national leadership. He said the performance of the national executives led by Chairman, Jake Obestebi-Lamptey is the worst in the party�s history. �I have seen different national executives before and when I compared them to the current ones, the difference is too big� Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe told CitiFM, Tuesday. The performance of the current executives most of whom are seeking re-election has been questioned by many including the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong. He has accused the executives of being corrupt and self-centered especially in the run-up to the 2012 electioneering campaign. Kennedy Agyapong has promised to launch a 20 million dollar campaign against the national executives especially Mr. Obetsebi-Lamptey to ensure no one is retained. In support, Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe called on party delegates to vote against all of the current executives at the party�s upcoming congress on April 12, 2014 in Tamale. According to him, the NPP is likely to lose the 2016 elections if the national executives are retained. �The present national executives should all be voted out. From chairman to the least person so that we will have a new set who will keep the party on its feet,� he stressed. Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe was convinced that with a new crop of leadership, the NPP will be a vibrant party to wrestle power from the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) in 2016.
