The Member of Parliament for Zabzugu, John Bennam Jabaah, has called for peace and unity among members of the governing New Patriotic Party up north.<\/p>\n
He said lack of unity affects the party\u2019s fortunes during elections.<\/p>\n
He said this when he brought together the NPP party constituency executives to celebrate the end of the year and new year with them.<\/p>\n
He distributed sewing machines, rice and oil to all women organizers of the party in the constituency.<\/p>\n
The gesture, he said, was to thank them for their unflinching support for the party.<\/p>\n
He said it was due to their support and prayers that the party won both presidential and parliamentary elections in the constituency during the 2020 polls.<\/p>\n
\u201cUnity is key to us as a party, especially in the Zabzugu constituency. Let us remain united and offer our support to anyone who is elected to lead the party. Without unity, it is the party that suffers. I pledge to lead the campaign of whoever is to be the candidate for the party in the constituency.\u201d<\/p>\n
Talking about peace, the MP called on the people in the constituency and the north, in general, to disregard the rumours that Konkombas and their neighbours are planning war.<\/p>\n
\u201cI urged all to disregard the rumour making the rounds that Konkombas are planning war against Dagombas and Dagombas are planning war against Konkombas. Please, it is not true, and I call on the security to arrest anyone found making such rumours. Konkombas and Dagombas are brothers. Our common enemy is poverty and underdevelopment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He used the opportunity to touch on some of the initiatives he had embarked on a year after being a Member of Parliament.<\/p>\n
\u201cTogether with my hard-working DCE, we have just, in one year, connected a number of communities to the national grid and work is currently ongoing on others. Plans are in place to start drilling boreholes in the constituency\u201d.<\/p>\n
The MP is offering support to 200 students in the Zabzugu constituency.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am supporting students in Zabzugu constituency with a hundred thousand Ghana cedis from my common fund. The support is for every student and not only for NPP supporters.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
