Deputy Minister for Transport and Member of Parliament for Jomoro, Dorcas Affo-Toffey, has urged delegates of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Western Region to prioritise competence, commitment and proven ability to deliver when voting in the party’s ongoing regional elections.
She called on delegates to make informed choices by electing individuals who have demonstrated the capacity to work effectively and advance the interests of the party.
Madam Affo-Toffey made the appeal while monitoring the Western Regional NDC elections in the Ellembelle District.
She cautioned delegates against allowing personal interests, political differences and internal divisions to influence their decisions, stressing that the collective interest of the party must take precedence over individual ambitions.
The Jomoro MP also emphasised the importance of unity and mutual understanding among party members, regardless of the outcome of the elections.
According to her, the internal electoral process should strengthen the party rather than create divisions that could undermine its cohesion and future prospects.
She encouraged delegates and other party members to conduct themselves responsibly throughout the exercise, noting that every member had a role to play in ensuring the party emerged stronger.
Madam Affo-Toffey further urged members to rally behind whoever emerged victorious and work together with the elected leadership after the polls.
She maintained that the NDC’s broader objectives and future electoral fortunes should take precedence over personal interests, urging members to remain committed to the party’s shared vision.
Her appeal comes as the NDC conducts its regional-level internal elections, with party stakeholders emphasising the need for peaceful, transparent and credible processes to strengthen internal cohesion.
