Former Vice Chairman of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Dr. Onsy Nathan Kwame Nkrumah, has submitted his nomination form so he can compete as the party’s flagbearer.
This occurs as the party prepares to make an effort to unseat the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Speaking to media, he claimed that many Ghanaians living abroad had asked him to take charge of the nation that his father, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, formerly oversaw in order to bring about change and improve Ghana.
He claimed that he was driven by a desire to see CPP retake control, reform, and faithfully serve Ghanaians once more.
“CPP has once led the country and is ready to work with any individual to make this country a better one”. Dr Onsy Nkrumah said he had been an active advocate of Pan-Africanism across the world, making him the right candidate to lead the CPP and Ghana.
He said CPP’s independence would help provide freedom for a change and appealed to Ghanaians in the diaspora to return home and vote for him to lead Ghana.
Dr Onsy Kwame Nkrumah said Ghanaians had tried both the NPP and NDC and were equally let down by both parties.
He told GNA that Ghanaians had suffered enough under the governance of the NPP and the NDC from 1992 to 2023 and deserved much better governance for accelerated development.
Dr Onsy Nkrumah is competing with Nana Akosua Frimpongmaa Sarpong Kumankumah, as they both lead the probability of winning the CPP flagbearership race.
According to the party, picking up and submission of forms had been peaceful.
