The Caucus of Constituencies First and Second Vice Chairmen of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Northern Region have thrown their weight behind Chairman Adam Baantima Samba over the controversies surrounding his stay in the northern region.

The group took the decision after series of press statement have emerged from some NPP members calling on the current chairman to go back to the newly created North East Region where he hails from.

Some members of the ruling new party in the Tamale, on 18th February, issued a press statement calling on the current northern regional chairman to move out of the region especially for his role that led to the carving of the north east region out of the northern region.

However at a press conference held at the NPP’s regional office in Tamale, the caucus of constituency first and second vice chairmen stated that, chairmen Samba remains the regional chairman per the constitution of the Party.

Spokes person of the group, Alhaji Abdulai Yakubu Zingirinjini reading the press statement on behalf of his colleagues said, as a citizen chairman Samba can extend his voting rights to any other region in Ghana, adding that the agenda by the regional chair to deliver 22 parliamentary seats for the NPP remain on course and no amount of pressured can derail that agenda.

We the Northern Regional  Constituency first and second vice Chairmen caucus wants to state it clear that we want our competent and hardworking chairman to stay with us here in the North to achieve our ”agenda 22 seats” in the region. Chairman Samba was elected for a four year mandate for New Patriotic Party in the Northern Region.

Ladies  and gentlemen, in fact the last time we checked,  Chairman Adam Bantima  Samba is still our Regional Chairman per our party constitution for the two newly created regions, SAVANNA and NORTH EAST regions. Chairman ‘Do all’ haves the constitutional mandate to choose as to where to stay whether North East or Northern Region, more over he can even extend his  voting rights to any other regions in Ghana because he is a Ghanaian and not a Togoles.

Not even withstanding Chairman Samba track records and qualities  is unbearable in the three Northern Regions. He is  a resident owner in the Northern Region and other Regions.With all standards.Lets take note as far as the 1992 constitution of the republic of  Ghana and the New Patriotic Party are Concern, no  amount of pressure and intimidations  can demoralize  the  Hardworking  Chairman  out  of  the region. We are focus and dedicated in the agenda 22 seats set by Chairman, we  wont allow any distractors  to change our mindset over that agenda.

Northern Region has given birth to those newly created regions, North East and Savanna Regions, and we the Northern Region  first and Second Vice chairmen for the various 31 constituencies then,  and now 18 constituencies  for the Northern Region,  due stands firm in support of the hardworking chairman to stick and stay with us here in the North to achieve our goals.

Ladies  and  gentlemen of the media,  Chairman Samba has change the old face of the region to a new face, because he able to touched  many lives  and  still touching many lives in the region, just  as recently happening in the Aboabo Market, when fire gutted five stores in the market,. Chairman Samba paid the victims a surprise visit with  huge sum of money of Ghc5000 each for the victims which sums to Ghc25000, he handed the cash  physically to the victims. Chairman Samba made this donation without the notice of the President nor the National Executive Committee. This is what we call politics, supporting party faithfuls and none party faithfuls,. Chairman Samba with his own resources without the support of the National Executive board, has secured an ultramodern Regional Party Office, first in the history of NPP in the Three Northern Region. He also provided each and every constituency  a laptop and a plasma LED TV others with an additional air condition, and  as  communication is the mouth piece of   a  political party, chairman Samba  supports  to the Northern Regional Communication Team is unbearable , his  monthly supports  to the team is  well appreciated  by  the  team membership  and  leaderships. He also support in construction  of  some  constituencies  Party  office in the Northern Region. Organizing a dinner with  constituency  executives, communicators  and journalist as well, it  is his hall mark, Chairman even stands and promise to hold an annual best journalist of the year. More over chairman  Samba has made a fair donation to the performance of the final funeral rites of the  various  late Paramount chiefs of  Dagbon, which includes YAA NAA MAHAMADU ABDULAI II and YAA NAA YAKUBU ANDANI III, That’s what we call politics ,

Ladies and gentlemen of the media,  We the chairmen has  not  seen  CHAIRMAN SAMBA to short-change the New Patriotic Party   in  the  Northern Region, we rather seen it as a progress and not  retrogress . we seen him as a competent and hardworking leader  not  base on tribalism or ethnicity, we humbly calls  for his  continues stay in  the  NORTHERN REGION forever till death do us apart.
