Members of the People’s National Convention (PNC) in the Nadowli-Kaleo Constituency in the Upper West Region have introduced its 14- member team of executive with women constituting 43 per cent of the leadership.
The executive was elected last week with six of them being women.
Mr Lawrence Kuubata was elected as Constituency Chairman, Dandeebo K. Germanus Deputy Chairman, Mr Julius Konnyuuri Secretary and Mr Bayor Pascal as Deputy Secretary.
For the Constituency Organiser, Mr Gyilinaa Ngmieluu, would be assisted by Comfort Abontaa while Emelia Adama is in charge as Constituency Women’s Organiser and Kuukyire Eunice as Deputy Women’s Organiser.
Vincent Domaninge is the Constituency Youth Organiser and he is being assisted by Gifty Zuuri while the Communication Secretary position would be managed by Aiden Zangu with Desmond Alugimo as his deputy.
Jackline Ziema was elected as Constituency Treasurer and Gladys Kwabena as Deputy Treasurer.
Addressing the executive, Mr Bernard Mornah, PNC General Secretary, commended the constituency for a successful election and particularly for electing six women.
He said it showed that the party believed in the capability of women, and added that if PNC won the 2016 general election, it would not be difficult to get 40 per cent of women into positions of governance.
Mr Mornah, who is aspiring to become the National Chairman of the PNC, noted that the party was looking forward to the region to elect its constituency executive successfully for it to hold its national delegates congress.
The PNC General Secretary pointed out that the government of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) had proven that it could not manage the current economic and power crisis as well as the many challenges in the education, health and agric sectors.
According to him, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) had not demonstrated any character either, citing the current internal wrangling as one bad and clear example of the fact that Ghanaians could not entrust their destiny into the hands of the party.
“The NDC is not able to salvage Ghanaians from the current difficulties and the NPP is not showing any ability either,” he noted.
Mr Mornah said the PNC was now the only alternative for Ghanaians and as a party that shared in the ideologies of Nkrumah, its leaders and the Convention People’s Party had met to initiate moves to merge the two parties to form a formidable force that Ghanaians could trust.
Mr Desmond Twumasi Ntow, aspiring National Organiser of the party said it was time Ghanaians changed their perspective of voting and tried the PNC as an alternative.
