The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has served notice to all affiliate volunteer groups that it will undertake a registration process to streamline their activities.
The National Organiser of the NPP, Sammi Awuku, who announced this, said the move is for the party to direct and properly structure the activities of all volunteer groups to be in sync with the party’s national campaign activities for 2020.
Speaking on Oman FM‘s hottest evening political show, ‘Boiling Point’, Mr. Awuku disclosed that the registration of these volunteer groups affiliated to the NPP would have their activities properly regulated.
“I sent a proposal to the Steering Committee and National Executive Committee of the party which was to allow all volunteer groups affiliated to the NPP be registered. I have been given the green light by the Steering Committee to implement that,” he said.
Mr. Awuku indicated that the exercise would begin to be operational from Tuesday, September 10, 2019, adding that once the affiliate volunteer groups are registered, the rules and regulations governing the conduct of volunteer groups would be outlined to the group.
The national officers of the NPP had early this year met with the various volunteer groups affiliated to the NPP in an effort to fraternise with their leaders to map out strategies ahead of the 2020 elections.
