A flag bearer aspirant of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Prof. Joshua Alabi has successfully rounded up the first phase of his Upper East Regional campaign tour, with delegates thrilled about his vision for the party when voted to become a flag bearer.

In all, he held meetings with delegates in the Chiana-Paga, Navrongo Central, Bongo, Pusiga, Garu, Tempane, Bawku Central, Binduri, Zebilla, Nabdam and the Bolgatanta East constituencies.

The branch and constituency executive members were elated with Prof. Alabi's message of properly resourcing the base of the party by creating fixed deposit accounts for all constituencies to take care of party activities when he became leader of the NDC.

Delegates excited

The delegates pledged to work relentlessly to enable Prof. Alabi to become the flag bearer of the party in view of the practical strategies and approaches he intended to adopt to govern the NDC and Ghana ultimately.

Prof. Alabi also made a stopover in Tamale in the Northern Region to observe and participate in the Fire Festival.

He also held a meeting with the Kintampo South Constituency of the NDC in the Brong Ahafo Region.

More engagements

Prof. Alabi intends to continue his engagement with the rank and file of the party across the country to reinvigorate the base of the party, having gathered first-hand information on the peculiar challenges in the various branches and constituencies.

That, he said, would enable him to devise workable solutions to fix the challenges and also take advantage of opportunities present in those constituencies to increase the electoral fortunes of the NDC.

He expressed gratitude to the delegates in the Upper East Region for the warm reception and their overwhelming pledge to elect him as the flag bearer for the 2020 general election.
