The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has very little to do in terms of marketing Nana Akufo-Addo to Ghanaians should delegates elect the former Foreign Affairs Minister as the party�s flagbearer for the 2016 elections. According to Iddrisu Musah Superior � an aide to the NPP General Secretary Kwabena Agyepong who is a perceived Alan Kyerematen aficionado � the two-time presidential candidate has gone through the mill and stands a better chance to win the next general elections. Superior described Ghana�s former Justice Minister as �irresistible in the NPP� and thus a few resources will be required to package him at the national level since his free education campaign still holds water. �Nana Addo is popular and is cheaper to use him [than Alan],� Superior told Citi FM�s Richard Dela Sky on the Point Blank segment of Eyewitness News Tuesday. �He is going to carry a collective and united party. He will be carrying a solid NPP into the next elections.� He added: �Nana Addo is a man the NPP can�t forsake. Ghanaians need a man who can deliver justice� I believe in Nana Addo and believe he is the right person to lead the party. His advantages outweigh the others.� The veteran politician is contesting the ex-Trades Minister and one other for the standard-bearer slot of the Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition in a bid to unseat sitting President John Dramani Mahama. The NPP will be going to congress on October 18 to elect their flagbearer.
