In polling booths and community clinics, in party meetings and crisis rooms, in the boardrooms of Denver and the constituencies of Ghana’s Northern Savannah.
What follows is not a political résumé. It is the record of a woman who has given the New Patriotic Party three decades of unconditional service — and who now presents that record to the party she loves as her credential for its highest elected administrative office.
“I watched neighbours dragged before kangaroo tribunals. I saw wives left behind. I saw children grow up without fathers. That experience did not make me afraid of politics. It made me committed to the kind of politics that protects people — the kind that the New Patriotic Party was founded to deliver.”
“I cast my first vote for this party in 1996. I co-founded the Colorado Chapter in 2006. I drove 22 hours for national campaign fundraising event in Los Angeles in 2008. I hosted the NPP’s International Conference in Denver in 2009. I have been a delegate at three National Flagbearer Congresses. I have spent 30 years doing the unglamorous work of party-building — the minutes and the meetings, the logistics and the late nights, the medical outreaches and the audits. And I am asking, now, for the mandate to bring all of that to the national stage. Not for myself. For this party. For Ghana.” — Obaa Yaa
