A flagbearer will be chosen by the Convention People’s Party (CPP) on June 12 to represent the party in the 2024 presidential elections.
The choice complies with the party’s constitution, which specifies that when the party is in opposition, the flag bearer shall be chosen two years prior to the general election.
A statement issued by the CPP on Tuesday (21 March) called on persons who desire to lead the CPP to avail themselves when the party opens nominations.
“At a central committee meeting held on 20 March 2023, the Convention People’s Party (CPP) has determined to hold its flagbearer elections by 12 June 2023.
“The decision to go by the constitutional provision was overwhelmingly agreed by all members present at the Central Committee which is the highest administrative decision-making body of the party,” the CPP statement said.
