Dr. Isaac Osei, NPP presidential hopeful has called on potential delegates and party faithfuls to give him the opportunity to lead the party to wrestle power from the Atta Mills led NDC government.
Dr. Isaac Osei who was speaking in a meeting with party faithfuls at Oforikrom in Kumasi on Thursday at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) urged party supporters to remain united and support whoever emerge leader of the party after the August 7 congress. He however stated that he was the best person to lead the party considering his experiences in management at various levels of industry. He dissuaded his supporters from using abusive language towards the other candidates.
According to the former finance Minister, managing a country such as Ghana goes beyond trivial factors as age and height. He also sought to debunk the assertion that some of the candidates have already been marketed and hence should be made to represent the party a second time saying that it is the party that markets people and not people marketing the party.
He also praised the legacy of former president John Agyekum Kuffour while condemning the NDC, saying that the NDC’s claim of creating one thousand six hundred jobs for Ghanaians is an untruth which should not be taken seriously by serious minded Ghanaians. He said the NDC government is only recycling jobs; taking them from the NPP members and giving them to their own.
