In his remarks, Nartey expressed his appreciation to the party’s executives for their cordial welcome and reiterated his commitment and vision to work hard to win the Adenta seat for the NPP in next year’s elections.
“This is the first step in my determination to rescue our lost seat from the opposition party and build the flourishing Adentan we want for ourselves,” he said.
“I appeal to all party faithful to regard me as their best candidate, determined and capable of winning our parliamentary seat come December 2024,” he added.
The executives, on their part, urged Nartey and his team to have a clean campaign devoid of insults and personal attacks to secure a united front for next year’s elections.
