Unity is what will give us power but if they don�t preach unity and we lose in 2016, we will not be available to fuel people�s presidential ambition in 2016, says former National Youth Organiser of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Anthony Abeyifa Karbo. Anthony Karbo was speaking to the various happenings in the NPP especially the near bloodshed that occurred at the party�s headquarters on Tuesday. According to him, the youth have �toiled for the party� and if the elders will destroy their hardwork, they will see 2016 but winning the elections will be difficult. �Most of the confusion that goes on in the party are caused by the big men�we the youth in this party are going to lock them up in a room; very soon. They must either unite for change in 2016 or die in opposition; remain locked up in opposition forever. This is because a lot of the youth have really sacrificed for the party and for the elders to always bring tensions in the party�.� Karbo warned. He pleaded with Ghanaians to forgive the NPP for the confusion in the party and queried the executives of the party for allowing things to take a wrong turn when �we know we are the only hope of Ghanaians�. �We are pleading with Ghanaians to forgive us for the violence that occurred at the NPP headquarters�people are looking up to the NPP and so if the big men in this party will continue in this media circus throwing bombs here and there�how can we unite. Unity is what will give us power but if they don�t preach unity and we lose 2016, we will not be available to fuel people�s presidential ambition after 2016. We must win power� he said during a panel discussion on Peace FM morning show �Kokrokoo� He also urged the new executives of the NPP to �take full responsibility of what happened� at the party�s headquarters where thugs with machetes caused commotion during a press briefing organised by Mr Paul Afoko, chairman of the NPP and his General Secretary, Kwabena Agyepong. �They must come out boldly to accept this mess; this embarrassment that has come upon the NPP as a result of this incident�The NDC are listening and taking notes and at the right time they will release them and when that happens what are we going to say?� he queried.
