CPP eyes 100 seats
Loading ...The Covention People’s Party (CPP) says it is sure of increasing its parliamentary seats from 3 to 100 during the December general elections.
The party says though it would field parliamentary candidates in all 230 constituencies, it is realistic and honest enough to admit that it is capable of winning only 100 of those seats.
Felix Amoah, Chairman of the party’s 2008 campaign, noted at a press conference on Thursday that “the CPP will have at lest 100 solid, popular, resourceful and competitive parliamentary candidates across the country, capable of winning parliamentary seats for the CPP”.
Mr. Amoah did not mention which seats the party is sure of winning and which seats it knows it would not win, but explained that some of the 100 seats it would conquer hands down would be contested by very resourceful and experienced candidates who can not be defeated.
He also predicted a run off during the presidential elections, and said the CPP would be one of the two parties that would be in the second round.
He added that “the CPP will win the 2008 elections and go back to the Flagstaff House. We are working to become one of the two parties to be in the second round run off after the December 7th elections.
We are going from polling station to polling station in every constituency in Ghana to recruit new members for the CPP through a national movement led by mostly young men and women across the country.
“We are registering tens of thousands of new members to help build a new CPP and get it ready for the 2008 elections. Those who supported other parties in previous elections are coming back.
Our most enthusiastic members are young men and women who have discovered the CPP tradition and want to help make it a successful party for the 21st Century.
Ghanaians want an alternative after their experience with the NDC and the NPP.”
