The National Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress, Sammy Gyamfi has reassured party faithful that the party is united despite the various contentions between candidates.<\/p>\n
According to him, the disagreements were a usual characteristic of the contest which would soon end after the election of new executives scheduled for Saturday, December 17.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe NDC is not doomed, the NDC is in fact getting stronger and stronger. In every contest there is a possibility of some acrimony and disagreements, once the contest is over we have always demonstrated that we are one family. We love ourselves.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have a common goal and that common goal is our focus and that you can rest assured that after all is said and done, we will unite and come together as one and work for the progress of the National Democratic Congress,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Sammy Gyamfi\u2019s assurance comes on the heels of mudslinging and acrimonious campaigns leading up to the congress.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a familiarisation tour ahead of Saturday\u2019s congress, he said the party had put the necessary security arrangements in place to prevent any violent clashes.<\/p>\n
\u201cAdequate security measures have been put in place; we are working with the Ghana Police Service. Our internal party security will be here to complement their efforts.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have learned useful lessons from what happened in Cape coast and we can assure our rank and file and the general public that we will not have any such occurrence \u2026 so security will not be a problem at all,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
About 9,000 delegates are expected to participate in the congress on Saturday.<\/p>\n
It would be recalled that the national youth and women congress held on December 12 in Cape Coast, was characterised by disturbances leading to the injury of four persons and the destruction of property.<\/p>\n
The party\u2019s Council of Elders has since condemned the acts of violence and demanded for a full report of the incident.<\/p>\n
It said persons found to have breached the party\u2019s rules whether elected or not will face disciplinary action.<\/p>\n
The party urged strict observance of the rules announced by the Congress Planning Committee to avoid the recurrence of violent events and to ensure a peaceful outcome of Saturday\u2019s congress.<\/p>\n
