Accra, June 17, GNA – Mr Abdul Malik Jeleel, the Convention People’s Party (CPP) Chairman of the Adentan Constituency, Thursday , extended his best wishes to the New Patriotic Party in its Saturday Parliamentary Primary and urged all participants to endeavour to comply with all the safety protocols.
All the delegates and aspirants must be mindful of the global pandemic and observe the COVID-19 protocols of social distancing and the wearing of face marks during the voting, counting of votes and declaration of results.
Speaking in an interview with the Ghana News Agency on the NPP’s June 20 Parliamentary Primary in the 168 constituencies, where the ruling Party has sitting Members of Parliament, Mr Malik said, it was imperative for both aspirants and delegates to keep the pandemic in mind in whatever actions they may take to contain the spread.
He predicted victory for the incumbent Member of Parliament, Lawyer Yaw Buabeng-Asamoa, who is also the Party’s Communications Director.
However, Mr Malik said, he was hopeful that 2020 presented the best opportunity for the CPP to win the Adentan seat.
“The CPP is ever ready to take on both the NPP and NDC in the December Parliamentary Election.
The CPP is, however, yet to elect its candidate.
Mr Malik stated that, although the Party’s top hierarchy had gone through some challenges recently to resolve issues in court, it was normal and good in every revolutionary party’s restructuring.
