Mr. Portuphy flattered the National Democratic Congress as having members competent and confident enough to contest and win the 2020 elections despite the NPP’s unrelenting feat in achieving its outnumbering campaign promises.

He said, “We have the men. Our management capabilities are high, we are skillful and we have demonstrated it before. In terms of the last election, we could not put our acts together, we must accept that one, but I am saying that we are working very hard.

Mr. Portuphy who boasted of his party’s proficiency maintained that, “We are working very hard.”

Adding that “we are not going to pride ourselves only in the past, but we are working very hard to overcome the bridges that we couldn’t build. We must now build the bridges properly, so we can interact with both sides of the stream.”

Five months after the committee presented its report to National Executives, the party has kept the report under lock and key saying it’s not meant for public consumption.

The report is said to make damning revelations on how campaign funds never got to their intended destinations, divisions in the party and how the party’s election collation centre broke down during the polls.

Some media houses have reportedly intercepted a copy an executive summary of the classified report and have been serializing contents of the report.

But NDC executives have rubbished every bit of the supposed report that has been published insisting the media’s copy of the report is fake.
