I've gathered enough experience to serve as constituency Secretary-former Student leader declares intention

A former student leader,who recently competed for the position of Municipal Chief Executive for the West Gonja Municipal, Kadri Abdul Rahman has declared his intention to  run for the position of constituency Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party.

In a declaration statement,the determined young Patriot disclosed that he believes he has gathered enough experience working at the student front and various party positions to avail himself for higher leadership roles in the party in the Damongo constituency.

He recounted his days at the University of Education,Winneba,where he served dilligently as the Students Representative Council president,a platform that helped sharpen his leadership skills, negotiation, diplomacy and administration. 

According to him,in the tough days of the New Patriotic Party in opposition,he served as Polling Station Secretary, Deputy Constituency Youth Organizer and and a Constituency Communication team member; where he contributed massively to the 2016 and 2020 victory of the party.

He therefore, holds the strong conviction that this is the right time for him to respond to the many calls from the grassroot of the party by availing himself to be considered for the position of constituency Secretary in the upcoming elections,whilst pledgding to be a unifier and a team player.

"Earlier this year, I presented myself to be considered for the appointment of MCE for the Damongo municipality, but that was not meant to be within the will of God who controls the affairs of man. As a firm believer of the Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition however, I firmly understand that our service to the growth of this tradition is not limited to only people serving in government, but even more importantly is to serve through the party that births the government.

"In view of this, fellow patriots,  I wish to respectfully bring to your attention my ambition to contest for the office of the CONSTITUENCY SECRETARY in our great party; the New Patriotic Party, here in the Damongo constituency when the time is due for nominations"- he said.

On his leadership experience,he said,

"In our tough days in opposition, I served  as a polling station Secretary from 2009-2013 and also served as a deputy Constituency youth organizer in the Damongo constituency from 2013-2017 where I served faithfully. In the last ten years however, I have also served as a communications team member for the party.

"This eventually culminated into our massive victory as witnessed in the 2016 and 2020 elections.

" During my student days at the university, I also served at the highest level of student leadership as the  SRC president. This singular honour, created a huge platform for me to sharpen my leadership skills, negotiation, diplomacy, administration and broaden my horizon".
