The First Vice-Chairperson of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Anita De Sosoo, has cautioned her fellow party colleagues to be wary of taking money from candidates aspiring to hold positions in the party.

According to the former National Women’s Organizer of the umbrella family, once a person is lured into take money from a candidate aspiring for a position in the party in exchange of his or her vote, that person becomes a slave of that particular candidate, a situation, she stressed, weakens the party.

She said it was about time delegates look out and vote for people with integrity and who are willing to serve rather than those who seek to buy votes.

“Very soon there will be elections – people will bring money. If you take the money and you vote for them you become their slaves. There are people who have integrity but they don’t have money – they are in to serve. It is time we stop taking money from people before we vote for them”, she noted.

She made this observation, Monday, when addressing party followers at the 39th anniversary celebration of the June 4th uprising which was held at the Madina Social Welfare School Park.

Commenting further, she urged party followers to unite and be each other’s keeper in order to strengthen the party for election 2020.

Anita De Sososo further urged the umbrella family to always look back and strive to assist their cadres whose sweat and toil brought lots of laurels to the party.
