THE Northern Regional Secretariat of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has appealed to some aggrieved party activists who were disqualified from contesting the parliamentary primary in the Tamale North Constituency, to abandon their decision to contest the December parliamentary poll as independent candidates.
“The party entreats you to reconsider your stand and rally behind your elected parliamentary aspirant, Alhaji Abubakari Sumani, and the party's presidential hopeful, Professor John Evans Atta Mills, to ensure a resounding victory in the forthcoming December general election,” the Northern Regional Secretary of the NDC, Alhaji Abdulai Harruna Friday, stated.
Making the appeal in Tamale, Alhaji Friday also commended the executive of the three NDC constituency branches in Tamale for working hard for the party.
"We thank you for working selflessly to increase the party's goodwill and support in the metropolis. We, however, urge you not to be complacent with these achievements," he admonished them.
The appeal came after Alhaji Friday had led some regional executive to interact with some of the constituency executive to sensitise them to the importance of the voters registration and revision exercise that commenced yesterday.
Among the suburbs visited were Vittin, Lamashegu, Sagnrigu, Gurugu, Sabojinda and Victory.
The secretary said all activists of the NDC must step up efforts by mobilising eligible voters to register, since that was the only way to garner the necessary votes to beat the ruling New Patriotic Party.
The Northern Regional NDC Propaganda Secretary, Alhaji Umar Farouk, also advised party sympathisers to exercise maximum restraint during the entire period of the exercise and to report any misgivings to the appropriate quarters for redress.
The Regional Women's Organiser of the party, Hajia Raliatu Yakubu, admonished NDC supporters, particularly the women, not to allow any individual or group to deceive them into trading their votes for money.
