Chairman Wontumi Is 100% Competent Than NDC Leaders – Atubiga

The Founder of the National Liberation Congress, Stephen Atubiga says, the incumbent regional Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party, Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, popularly known as, Chairman Wontumi must be retained by delegates of the party, in the upcoming internal elections of the aforementioned.

In an up-close with Kweku Dawuro on the ‘Movement In The Morning Political Show’ on Monday, the defected member of the National Democratic Congress(NDC), said, the competency and capabilities of Mr. Antwi-Boasiako outweigh the aforementioned of the National Chairman, of the largest opposition party, NDC, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo.

“Chairman Wontumi is 100% better, than the National Chairman of the NDC, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo. “He’s capable of even managing the entire election machinery of the NDC, coupled with even educating the national chairman and other executives of the NDC, on what strategies to adopt, to win an election.” He asserts.

He said, Managing a political party, goes beyond intellectuality. “Degree doesn’t guarantee victory in an election. He added.

Highlighting factors he believes are the reason, Chairman Wontumi stands out among his contenders, Mr. Atubiga said, Chairman Wontumi’s relations with the indigenes of the Ashanti region, regardless of one’s political affiliation, tribe or race.
“There are some executives of the NDC who have benefited from the benevolence of Chairman Wontumi. He’s ready to support you despite your political differences.”

He further went on to say, even in the worse state of the incumbent Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NPP, he ensured a tremendous victory for the party, whiles in opposition.

Although I’m aligned with the ideology of the NDC, a party I once belonged to, an ideology he claims the National Liberation Congress has adopted, unarguably, Wontumi has been able to outsmart all other political parties in the Ashanti region”. He noted.

Buttressing his assertions, Mr. Atubiga stressed, “In the history of the NPP in the Ashanti Region, nobody has been able to garner enough votes than Chairman Wontumi, since more 1992, so why change the winning team”? He quizzed.

“He’s a treasure the party must do all within its will, not to lose. In a nutshell, he has what it takes to rule, even at the national level. He’s the best material for the National more Chairman. He added.

Mr. Atubiga warned delegates going to the polls from May 27- 29, to ensure they cast their ballot in favor of Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, or they will regret any otherwise decision.

Bernard Antwi- Boasiako is expected to contest with four other candidates, to retain his position, as the Ashanti regional chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party.
