‘It’s simply too early to start campaigning’ – NPP cautions flagbearer hopefuls

The Communications Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Yaw Buaben Asamoa has described as indecent and uncalled-for, the activities of party members who have started campaigning as potential aspirants for the NPP flagbearer position ahead of the 2024 general elections.

He has advised such interested persons to exercise restraint and focus on helping the NPP achieve its goals for President Akufo-Addo’s second term in office.

This comes on the back of the resurfacing of some fliers and posters of  Vice President, Dr.  Mahamudu Bawumia and Trade and Industry Minister, Alan Kyerematen and Minister for Agriculture, Owusu Akoto Afriyie on social media and at vantage points in Accra and other parts of the country.

Some party executives have already condemned the act and called for a ceasefire.

Speaking to Citi News, Yaw Buaben Asamoa mentioned that, “it is important that the candidates exercise some restraint. That self-restraint will demonstrate that they believe in the future of the NPP. They believe that the performance of this government is what will give them victory in 2024. They believe that they are part of a team and must act as members of that team.”

“Right now, what are you fighting for or aspiring to? The President has just won an election and inaugurated and delivered his State of the Nation Address. The President’s budget for the second term has just been read. So what are you fighting to succeed? It’s simply too early”, he added.

In the meantime, the party has hinted that it will soon come out with guidelines to streamline the campaign activities of Members.

“The party will come out with guidelines. We are busily working on that. So there will be guidelines”, Yaw Buaben Asamoa noted.

Earlier, the Deputy General Secretary of the NPP, Nana Obiri Boahene, also, criticized persons who have started campaigning.

Campaign activities are yet to be sanctioned by the National Executive Committee and the National Council of the party.

The governing party is expected to hold its presidential primary in 2023.

The world has finally reached "the beginning of the end" of the AIDS pandemic that has infected and killed millions in the past 30 years, according to a leading campaign group fighting HIV. United Nations data show that in 2013, 35 million people were living with HIV, 2.1 million people were newly infected with the virus and some 1.5 million people died of AIDS. By far the greatest part of the HIV/AIDS burden is in sub-Saharan Africa. REUTERS/Nacho Doce (BRAZIL - Tags: HEALTH SOCIETY)
