He stressed that fostering harmony among party leaders and grassroots supporters alike is critical to rebuilding confidence and positioning the party for success.
According to him, the courtesy calls are not about advancing his personal ambition, but listening to the wisdom and experience of the leaders, past and present, especially, the elderly, to draw lessons from the party’s history. He described the interactions as opportunities to seek counsel, promote dialogue, and rally the party around a common vision.
The party stalwarts who received John Boadu welcomed the initiative and commended him for prioritising unity and consultation.
They underscored the importance of maintaining peace within the party, particularly at a time when internal solidarity is essential for effective opposition and future electoral victories.

He called on party members to put the collective interest of the NPP above individual differences and to work together to rebuilding the party.
