The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, has called on the leadership of the Convention People’s Party (CPP) to work hard to revive the party and firmly position it to be a force in the country’s political administration.

He said the ancestors of the CPP worked very hard to position it as a political force, which later gained independence from Ghana.

Otumfuo Osei Tutu made the call when the CPP standard-bearer, Mr. Ivor Kobina Greenstreet, led a party delegation to visit him at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi.

The visit was to introduce himself to the Asantehene and seek their blessings and guidance, as he embarked on a three-day campaign tour of the Ashanti region to engage with party supporters and sell the CPP message to constituencies to help win. the 2020 elections.

Otumfuo Osei Tutu also tasked party leaders with working to fulfill their campaign promises when the party won the December 2020 elections.

Greenstreet said that the CPP was the only party that worked to transform the country after colonial rule and created job opportunities for Ghanaians.

“NPP and NDC have done their thing, but now is the time for a change, and that change can only be CPP. We are number four on the ballot and we are going to communicate these things to the people of our visit ”, he emphasized.

He said that the CPP defended peace and truth in all its dealings with the electorates.

“We come in peace and truth. People have seen so many empty promises, so it is time for them to understand that only one part, the CPP, can change their lives, “he added.

Greenstreet said the CPP was formidable in the Ashanti region and with the blessings bestowed by Otumfuo Osei Tutu, the party would make great strides in the region to claim the presidential seat on December 7.

“People must understand that a vote for the CPP is a vote for progress for themselves, as the CPP represents progress and prosperity for all Ghanaians,” he added.
