The newly-elected General Secretary of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Nana Yaa Akyimpim Jantuah, has said the party now has a crop of young national leaders and moving away from being led by seniors.

The former Public Affairs Director of the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) said “The CPP has transformed now”, speaking on an Accra-based FM station on Tuesday, 22 September 2020.

“We are now attracting a lot of young people”, she said, adding: “Now the leadership of the party is made up of youthful ladies and gentlemen”.

“We no more have old men and old women at the helm of affairs”, Nana Yaa Jantuah stressed.

“Now we have pushed all the old folks to the Council of Elders to be playing an advisory role.

“Now we have the youth leading the party.

“All the national leaders of the party are all young people now”, she stressed.

Nana Yaa Jantuah was one of the many national leaders elected at the CCP’s recently-held internal polls, which also saw the election of Mr Ivor Greenstreet as flagbearer for the 2020 polls.
