The Interim Chairman of the Great Consolidated Popular Party(GCPP), Dr Henry Herbert Lartey, has pledged his total commitment to upholding his late father\u2019s legacy, which is making the GCPP greater and stronger.<\/p>\n
He explained that two former members of the party who were doing everything in their power to bring his name and the GCPP into disrepute through a disclaimer in the Daily Graphic were never elected at the 4th National delegates congress of the party in 2008.<\/p>\n
In a signed reaction copied to the Daily Graphic, he stated: \u201cWe the children of the Late Dr Lartey have experienced and shared a lot of political tribulations with our mother. I am, therefore, seasoned and can cope with all forms of political attack.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe truth is that although my father was a very wealthy and successful businessman: his passion for politics and the desire to make the CPP win elections depleted all his cash reserves, but not his properties. I adored and respected his passion to build Ghana into a prosperous nation,\u201d Dr Lartey pointed out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was, therefore willing to put most of my profit from export earnings to help him to achieve his aim.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said that he wrote and convinced Atongo and Thomas (the German violinist in the Amakye Dede’s Band)to produce the jingle of the \u201cVote Dan Lartey for President for Domestication\u201d and also paid Channel R., Atlantis Radio, Joy FM, Peace FM, and Fox FM for the promo.<\/p>\n
He said with this serving as a foundation, his father the Late Dan Lartey, then went on a very successful campaign which he organised.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a great joy that for once our father was making a great impact on the national political scene despite the fact that people personally laughed at me publicly when they did not understand the Domestication concept at the beginning,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
He was sad that \u201cthose who were not with us when the philosophy was propounded are now parading in the media to claim what is not theirs because it is very popular now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am totally committed to upholding my late father\u2019s legacy. I have been thoroughly trained by my father, he only talked politics. We shared loads of ideas and argued\/debated on various topics,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am a card-bearing member of the Great Consolidated Popular Party and I am extremely thrilled that the party is very attractive now. My travels to the party\u2019s constituencies in the regions to restructure and re-brand have been extremely successful”, he said in the statement.<\/p>\n
He recalled that US President Barak Obama on his visit to Ghana stated that Ghana must build institutions to properly develop her democracy.<\/p>\n
Former President John Kufuor said the public had a responsibility to help elections take place in a fair and stable manner, adding; \u201cWe must use all our influence to persuade political leaders that progress, prosperity and stability will stem from respecting their democratic rights.\u201d<\/p>\n
All these \u201cI believe in and I will do everything possible to make the GCPP greater and stronger,\u201d he pledged.<\/p>\n
