The Central Regional First Vice Chairman for the Convention People's Party (CPP), Ato McLean has described his party to be unpopular in Ghana's current political settlement due to its stance to place less value on money unlike other political parties.
According to him, governance isn't entirely about money as witness today but the selflessness one poses to govern his nation. Highlighting money and womanising as determining factors which cuts short the glittering career and ambitions of a politician.
Things he described the late Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, founder of CPP and Ghana's first President to have eschewed during his political days, but set before him how to liberate Ghana off its shackles of poverty, which same can't be said of the country's leaders of today.
Speaking with Sompa News Eric Annan, Ato McLean attributed CPP's present unpopularity in the Ghanaian politics to the rate at which political parties have centred politics on money.
A practice he bewailed has significantly contributed to Ghana's present economical woes.
The Central Regional CPP First Vice Chairman further asserted his party to be the worthiest political party in Ghana should all its betrothed assets by Kwame Nkrumah which has been denied the party by successive governments be handed over to them.
Formed in June 1949 after Nkrumah broke away from the United Gold Coast Convention, the CPP once call the shots in Ghana's political dispensation, having rose to political fame in the 1950's.
