The 2016 Campaign strategist for the Convention People’s Party(CPP) James Kwabena Bomfeh has said that the choice of Nana Gabby Nsiah Nketiah as the running mate to the 2016 Presidential flagbearer Ivor Kobina Greenstreet amply defines the CPP as an all-inclusive party.
The Vice Presidential nominee comes as a person who really is not neck-deep in CPP politics per se but Mr. Bomfeh popularly known as Kabila said he[running mate] possessed the right qualities and will complement the Ivor Greenstreet ticket that will return the CPP back to the reins of power in historic election December 7.
“…he brings experience , sacrifice, the newness and the sense that really works for the Ghanaian and that gives meaning to our existence as a people who are so endowed naturally – both material and human wise, and would require the catalyst that will unite the various shades of opinion and qualities that we have in this country to work for the Ghanaian people,” Mr. Bomfeh said in an interview with Accra-based Citi FM Friday.
The Convention People’s Party named the diplomat, and traditional ruler Nana Gabby Nsiah Nketiah as the running mate to the 2016 Presidential flagbearer Ivor Kobina Greenstreet days ago.
He was nominated by the Central Committee of the party.
