He nonetheless claims the his purported suspension is ultra vires.<\/p>\n<p>But the PNC\u2019s National Vice President, Haruna Asante while presenting the party\u2019s fratenal message at the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) National Conference in Cape Coast on Saturday, pleaded with the President to look more in the direction of the PNC for appointment as they have competent members ready to serve Ghana in public office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>This message is coming from no mean a personality than the Ambassador at Large, Dr Edward Mahama.
