The rank and file of Volta NPP led by the regional and constituency executives of all the 26 constituencies of the region have unanimously declared their unflinching support for the candidature of John Boadu, who is contesting for the General Secretary position of the party.
The executives averred that the NPP cannot have a better General Secretary than John Boadu in view of his unbeatable political experience having worked at all levels of the party with ginormous distinction and proven track record.
Rewarding him with the position of General Secretary is the very least the party's delegates can do to honour him, the executives intimated. Led by the hardworking Volta Regional Chairman, Mr. Makafui Kofi Woanya, John Boadu and his campaign team were taken round the various constituencies in the region to interact with the executives on his message of grassroots empowerment and strengthening party structure and also to assess the current state of the party in each constituency.
Speaking on behalf of the regional party and in justifying why Volta NPP is going all out for John Boadu, the regional chairman touted JB's political experience by chronicling some of the positions he's held in the party including Polling Station Chairman, Polling Agent, Constituency Secretary, Director of Research and Information for NPP Greater Accra, Director of Finance and Accountant at the party Headquarters, National Youth Treasurer, National Youth Organizer, Deputy Director of Communications, Director of Operations for 2016 campaign, and now, National Organizer as well as Acting General Secretary.
With these, he stated emphatically that no one in the NPP currently, has had the rare privilege of serving the party in almost all capacities than John Boadu. On their part, the executives of each of the 26 constituencies pledged to give John Boadu an overwhelming endorsement. They added that, they do not know the gentleman contesting John Boadu though he claims to be a member of Volta Region NPP.
For instance, Mr. Jarvis Koffie and Hon. Edem Agbewornu, the Constituency Secretary and DCE for Ketu South, a constituency/district the gentleman claims to come from, emphatically "disowned" him as a member of the party from the constituency. To them, it is most absurd and incredulous for such a person who has absolutely no root in the party and has not even held a polling station executive position in his entire political life, to think that he can be the party's General Secretary and CEO for that matter. The NPP is not a joke, they added.
On his part, the Krachi East constituency chairman, Mr. Collins Yaw Ahenkro said, it will not only be unconscionable but also an unforgivable sin for the NPP to abandon John Boadu, who has lived all his life in sacrifice and service of the party. The same position was exposed by Kwadekpo Richard, the Ho Central Constituency Chairman who also said that his entire 17 executives are the lead-campaigners for John Boadu in the region and beyond.
John Boadu was accompanied, throughout his 3-day tour of the Volta Region by the party's famous Regional Chairman (Makafui Kofi Woanya, a.k.a the Major), the Regional Secretary (Joseph Homenya), the Regional Women Organizer (Rejoice Afi Adzagbo), the Regional Youth Organizer (King David Nkanbonam) as well as the Volta Regional Manager of MASLOC, Daniel Kafui Wudome.
