RE- NOTICE OF CHANGES IN PARLIAMENTARY LEADERSHIP
The NDC Professionals Forum (NDC PROFORUM) welcome and commend the Party for the bold and tactical decision to effect changes in the leadership of the NDC Parliamentary Caucus
We truly believe that, these changes are we?l intended and in sync with the clear vision and mandate imposed on the national leadership.
We therefore call on the rank and file members of the Party to remain calm and focused on the bigger picture
We sincerely urge membership of the Party, to fiercely resist any attempt by any internal or external detractors who may be inclined on exploiting the sectional sentiments of some members to create trouble and division within the Party as a result of the new Changes
There is no doubt whatsoever on our minds that, Hon Haruna Iddrisu, Hon James Kluste Avadze and Hon. Muntaka Mubarak have written their names deeply in the sand of NDC and Parliamentary history but as the saying in Theater goes, perhaps it is time to bow when the applause is louder
Whilst congratulating the former Parliamentary leadership for their job well and excellently done, we wish Team Ato Forson all the best of luck, and remind them that they now carry the onerous responsibility of winning power for the NDC in 2024, No ifs and No Buts.
Signed
Amb. Sam Pee Yalley
