Peacefmonline.com can confirm President John Evans Atta Mills, a contender in the NDC’s upcoming Presidential primaries in Sunyani, has also been officially cleared by the party\u2019s Vetting Committee to contest the flagbearership race.<\/p>\n
PeaceFM’s Castle Correspondent Bernard Quantson who covered the vetting reports that President Mills spent a little over an hour before the committee.<\/p>\n
According to him, the President answered all questions in his usual calm but intelligent manner.<\/p>\n
Later in an interview with the media after his vetting, President Mills who was mobbed by party faithfuls said he was “satisfied” with the process and was hopeful that at the end of the day, “NDC will emerge victorious and not an individual”.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith God holding the banner, we shall succeed….what was happening in the Party was not a fight,” he said.<\/p>\n
The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the ruling NDC, on Tuesday June 7th, began vetting its candidates ahead of the July 8-10 Presidential primaries in Sunyani.<\/p>\n
Former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings was the first to face the committee at its maiden meeting yesterday. She answered questions bordering on her suitability and preparedness to lead the party into the 2012 general elections.<\/p>\n
Earlier, the Chairman of the Vetting Committee, Alhaji Issifu Ali, had express worry about the amount of mudslinging and insults being traded between supporters of the two candidates, and pointed out to the contestants the need to comport themselves to prevent the party from splitting after the primaries.<\/p>\n
The failure of Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah, Chief Executive of the Commonwealth Telecommunications Organisation (CTO) to meet the requirements of the party and the deadline for submission of his nomination forms, meant the contest is now a two-horse race between Professor John Evans Atta Mills and Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
