Commenting on the peace pact in an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA) at Odomase in the Sunyani West constituency, Mr Appiah-Mensah, who is also a member of the Bono Regional NPP Council of Elders said it was important to re-unite the party soon after the primaries, to win the Election 2028.
“Going forward peace must prevail in the party and before we can get peace, there should be justice,” he stated, and advised the party’s communicator to “talk good about the NPP and try to be neutral,” refraining from speaking for any flagbearer as the presidential primary drew closer.
Mr Appiah-Mensah said that would greatly strengthen the party thereby bringing about the required unity to the party soon after our primary.
