Politics of Tuesday, 19 November 2019Source: kasapafmonline.comVote ‘YES’ to end ‘winner-takes-all’ system – NPP to electorateNPP General Secretary, John BoaduThe New Patriotic Party (NPP) is strongly campaigning for a ‘Yes’ vote in the impending national referendum, adding that, it will end the ‘winner-takes-all’ canker that creates rancor in Ghana’s politics. Addressing a press conference in Accra on Monday, the General Secretary of the party, John Boadu, dismissed claims that the referendum will be to the advantage of the ruling New Patriotic Party. That is why we begun on a platform of a consensus and it cannot be said that this entire Constitutional Reform exercise is to benefit one political party to the exclusion of others. Indeed, it is rather the current status quo which favours one political party or at best the two main political parties to the exclusion of all others,” he stated. The NPP is fully behind the President’s programme and the people’s desire to democratize local governance and enhance accountability at that level.
