FONA Inaugurates National Executive Committee and Regional Coordinators in Kumasi, Vows to Support NAPO’s Candidacy
Kumasi, Ashanti Region – Friends of NAPO (FONA), a grassroots organization dedicated to empowering young people, has inaugurated its national executive committee and regional coordinators in Kumasi, the Ashanti regional capital.
The ceremony, held in Kumasi marked a significant milestone in FONA’s journey to support the candidacy of Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, popularly known as NAPO, as the running mate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming elections.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by FONA executives, both national and regional, as well as other constituency executives, including Mr. Kweku Oppong, chairman for Manhyia North Constituency, and Nana Kodie, NAPO’s secretary.
The event was a testament to FONA’s commitment to NAPO’s candidacy and its determination to mobilize support for his bid.
In his inaugural address, the national chairman for Friends of NAPO (FONA), Mr. Baffour Asare, who also serves as the chairman for Manhyia South constituency, reiterated FONA’s unwavering support for NAPO.
“FONA is here to stay, and we are committed to supporting NAPO’s candidacy all the way,” he emphasized.
Mr. Asare charged FONA members and executives to spring into action, rallying door-to-door campaigns and social media blitzes to spread the word about NAPO’s qualifications and vision.
According to Mr. Asare, NAPO’s remarkable performance in the education ministry, where he served as minister, and his current tenure in the energy sector, make him the better option to pair with Vice President Dr. Bawumia and presidential candidate for the NPP.
“NAPO for Running Mate is the future,” he declared, citing a recent survey that puts NAPO at 76% as a testament to his popularity.
FONA’s purpose, Mr. Asare affirmed, is to make Dr. NAPO the running mate and subsequently the Vice President of Ghana, due to his charismatic and visionary leadership.
We believe NAPO has the qualities and credentials to lead Ghana to greater heights, and we are committed to supporting him every step of the way,” he concluded.
The inauguration ceremony marked the beginning of FONA’s campaign to mobilize support for NAPO’s candidacy.
With its national executive committee and regional coordinators in place, FONA is poised to play a significant role in shaping the political landscape of Ghana in the coming months.
As the political season heats up, one thing is clear: Friends of NAPO (FONA) is a force to be reckoned with, and its support for NAPO’s candidacy is unwavering.
The question on everyone’s mind is: will FONA’s efforts pay off, and will NAPO emerge as the running mate for the NPP? Only time will tell.
In the meantime, FONA is calling on all its members and supporters to join the campaign trail, spreading the word about NAPO’s qualifications and vision.
With its grassroots approach and dedication to empowering young people, FONA is confident that NAPO’s candidacy will resonate with the youth of Ghana, and that together, they can make a difference in the country’s political landscape.
