The agony of non patriotism in the sissala east

The agony of non patriotism in the sissala east constituency.

The leadership of young democrats wish to take this opportunity to thank all our hardworking campaign teams, the numerous supporters of NDC across the length and breadth of the constituency, the country and the entire Ghanaian population at large. As a matter of fact, no single person won the election for the NDC. It was the efforts of large majority of Ghanaians, led by party executives and MPS. NDC wouldn’t have maintained power if not for your hard work and support. In fact, it will be a mayhem if the effort of millions of people go un notice, unrecognized and unappreciated, if we young democrats should sit and fold our hands at the look of events in the constituency. As one may anticipate, the battle for constituency executives positions is approaching for the constituency to groom people who are self motivated with unceasing desire for excellence coupled with quest for knowledge and pride in success to render competent and dedicated service for development. It is important that, the development of our constituency is in limbo due to high level of non patriotism especially from 2008 up to date.

We must therefore not allow few individuals in the constituency to relegate the party to unbearable one. Those individuals that Hon. Sulemana Alijata Gbentie induced to conduct polling station executives election instead of the constituency executive must be told in a clear language that is not their duty to do so. If one may ask them what capacity or authority do they have to conduct polling station executives election? Their action and inactions are uncalled for and must be condemn toto. This is a sign of immaturity and incompetent natured and must be stopped. Could it be that she want to be retain without proving to the polling station executives that is why she want people who are royal to her course to be elected as executives. If Hon. Sulemana Alijata Gbentie really wants to be retained as our parliamentary candidate should work and prove wet and stop this kind of immaturity and illegal game. In fact, if Hon. Sulemani Alijata Gbentie and those she induced doesn’t respect the constituency party chairman and the executives but they should at least show respect to the position of chairmanship.

We call on the party chairman and constituency executives to strongly response to their action and inaction.
