The NPP gave the advice in its solidarity message through the party’s Deputy General Secretary, Nana Obiri Boahen, who noted that politicians had a duty to live a disciplined life and demonstrate a high sense of maturity.
“As leaders, we have to play the part well by demonstrating a high sense of maturity. It’s important that healthy politics is practised in our country. It is obvious that the two leading political parties are NDC and NPP and so it’s important that we send this warm advice to our opponent,” he said.
