NPP and CP cross to Verandah Club

Zugu (Northern Region) 6 Oct. 1998 One hundred members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the Convention Party (CP) have joined the Verandah Boys and Girls Club. Mr Zakari Nuhu, district organiser of the club who introduced the new members to the Yendi District Chief Executive, Mr Mohammed Alhassan and the district executive officers of the NDC, said the clubs are not political parties but vehicles to attract more people to the NDC fold.

Mr Alhassan advised the people to be wary of politicians who have started campaigning that since President Jerry John Rawlings will not contest the 2000 elections they are sure to win. He said political parties that make such utterances do not have competent and dedicated personalities of vision to help them win the confidence of the electorate during the elections on their own merit.
