The Convention People’s Party (CPP) has appointed the deputy General Secretary in charge of Administration, Asani Tano as the acting General Secretary of the party.

A statement signed by the National Chairman of the party, Prof Edmund N. Delle said Nabila Basiru, the deputy Youth Organiser has also been appointed as Youth Organiser.

The Convention Peoples’ Party (CPP) on June 30, 2016, suspended its General Secretary, Nii Akomfrah and National Youth Organiser, Ernesto Yeboah following the controversy surrounding the Ford vehicle gift offered President John Mahama by a Burkinabe contractor.

Akomfrah and Ernesto Yeboah had openly criticised the flag bearer of the party, Ivor Greenstreet after he said there was nothing wrong with Mahama’s decision to accept the car gift from the said contractor.
