An aspirant for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) National Chairmanship position, Mr Paul Afoko has strongly posited that, the party does not stand a good chance of winning the presidential polls in 2016 without him as the National Chairman.
According to him, the NPP� two terms in opposition is �Spiritual� but he is be the chosen one to rescue the party from its psychic state.
�Without me, the NPP can win but it will be very difficult. There is something spiritual happening in NPP�very spiritual. 60 years ago there was a political party named (Northern People�s Party, NPP) with wrong deeds and presently, we still have a NPP,� he said.
Mr. Afoko however noted that, NPP�s affirmation to hold a centralized national delegates conference on April 12 this year in the northern region is to seek for spiritual mediation.
�We are going back to the north. We are going there for a spiritual renewal �we are going to unite the spirit of our party. The Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition still exists. We are going to Dombo�s house. We the northerners believe in our ancestors,� he stressed.
Speaking on Asempa FM, Mr. Afoko assured that, �After that renewal, the NPP will come back into an electoral battle come 2016� better prepared.
He added that �power is within our reach,� and pointed out that majority of Ghanaians are yearning for NPP but cautioned that �we must first recreate our story, repackage ourselves and rebuild a party that works for political power in 2016.�
