The resolution, signed by the regional chairman, Mr Francis Ntumy, directed that preparation towards the 2020 general election ought to begin now to avoid defeat. It further demanded that as a matter of urgency the CPP must renew efforts at bringing total unity among splinter Nkrumahist parties including the People’s National Convention (PNC), Progressive People’s Party (PPP) and Great Consolidated Popular Party. The resolution noted with grave concern the abysmal performance of the party in the 2016 general election. The CPP obtained below one percent of the presidential votes and failed to win a single parliamentary seat. It said the party must plan such that it could utilise the entire four-year election period since elections are held every four years.
