Managing editor of the Insight Newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr. has stated that the fortunes of the Convention People�s Party (CPP) have seen a massive fall under the current chairman, Samia Nkrumah. He is of the view that the electoral fortunes of the CPP will be enhanced if a new leadership is formed which according to him will help the party to put up impressive show in the 2016 election. �Our fortunes have fallen under Samia. The then vibrant CPP we use to know is no more and so I would be very happy if Dr. Dele is elected as the new chairman of the party because I believe he will strongly deliver� he noted. The CPP has opened nominations for the election of National Executive Officers for the party. Nominations are expected to be closed on Friday 4th September, 2015. Ahead of the party�s scheduled congress on 18th September, aspirants are feverishly campaigning to be elected to various positions in the party. But the outspoken journalist speaking in an interview on Adom fm�s morning show �Dwaso Nsem� Thursday said with the preferred candidates to steer the affairs of the party after the congress, the party will achieve its goals before the 2016 general elections. �There is no togetherness in the party and so what I expect from the executives who will be elected is to bring togetherness to champion the cause of the party� he stressed.
