The Upper East branch of United Cadre Front (UCF) of the National Democratic Congress is appealing to the Council of Elders and the leadership of the party to as a matter of concern work tirelessly towards resolving the simmering issues that have the potential of generating rancour and acrimony within the rank and file of the party. This they believe could help avert division among party faithfuls. In a statement signed by the Regional Chairman of the UCF, Comrade Alagskoma Asakeya Noble, all hands must be put on deck to facilitate a speedy resolution of the challenges facing the party. He said in order to uplift the spirit of continuity and unity within the party and government, there is the urgent need for the former first lady to rescind her decision to contest the sitting President.. He noted that though UCF as a body supports and share in the ideologies and concerns of the Rawlings’s, they are of the conviction that her withdrawal from the race will inure to the benefit of the NDC party in the 2012 general elections. Mr. Asakeya Noble moreover seized the opportunity to caution party members to be circumspect in their utterances and as well assist in projecting the policies and programmes of the government to the public. He therefore stressed the need to organize workshops on public relations and communication skills for government appointees to enhance their daily dealing with the public and party faithfuls in particular. Public officials on the other hand were also urged emulate the leadership style of the President by being transparent, accountable and honest since they will be called to account for their stewardship in future. Mr. Asakeya Noble later encouraged all cadres especially those in government to continue to uphold to the principles of probity and accountability on which June 4th revolution was nurtured. He also appealed to the president not to renege on his promise to compensate all hardworking cadres who were thrown out of employment in organizations such as the National Mobilization Programme in 200.
