“TEIN-NDC activities shouldn’t only be limited to general meetings and welcoming of freshers where some party big men use as an occasion to project themselves. How are we helping in the mentorship of these vibrant guys? What research work is the party tasking them to undertake?” A visibly passionate and charged party activist submitted.
He also emphasized the need for the party to identify itself with her ideological values and close the circles. This he believes will reposition the party for victory in 2024. He called on the youth of the party to shun the monetary enticements from the ruling party and remain loyal to the cause of the NDC.
The vibrant NDC activist who tried but failed in his bid to become the party’s Youth Organizer in the last executive elections in 2018 recounted how he rejected numerous bribe offers from top government officials during his days as a student leader and stayed true to the party’s cores values. He said such is the integrity that must guide the politics of today.
The Rejuvenated NDC Hub group promised to organize more of such meetings as it aims to work for the victory of the NDC in 2024.
