#Ghana2016: Samia likely to collaborate with Nduom on NPP alliance – Ephson

Samia Nkrumah is more likely to join forces with Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom’s People’s Progressive Party (PPP) to collaborate with the leading opposition New Patriotic Party ahead of this year’s elections, Pollster, Ben Ephson has predicted.

“I suspect that going forward there is going to be a major collaboration…If Samia wins the CPP Presidential candidate she may collaborate with Dr. Nduom to go to the negotiation table with NPP”

Ephson intimated that Samia has been politically closer to PPP, hence he foresees a possible alliance between her[Samia] and former flagbearer of the CPP, Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom in her bid to make inroads into the upcoming polls.

In an interaction with Fiifi Banson on Anopa Kasapa on Kasapa 102.3 FM Ephson echoed that the best way for the CPP to make an impact was to allow for a first round collaboration in exchange of seats.

The party is struggling to yet position itself to win back power since the overthrow of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, CPP founder and first President of Ghana in 1966.

Meanwhile the CPP has set Saturday January 30, 2016 for its presidential primaries.
