NDC flagbearer aspirant, Sylvester Adinam Mensah has outdoored a mobile telephony platform as part of a range of innovative means to pool resources to fund his campaign. Mr. Mensah joins the array of presidential hopefuls adopting latest technological trends to raise funding for their campaigns. The NDC flagbearer hopeful has already toured various regions across the country, canvassing support for his bid to lead the party for which among others, he had been a Youth Organiser in the Greater Accra Region, rising to become a Member of Parliament for La Dadekotopon from 1996-2000. The former NHIA CEO has been vigorously campaigning with a message of dedication, rewarding party loyalty and unifying the party structures as the momentum is heightened to capture the reigns of governance if elected to be the presidential candidate of the party for the 2020 Elections. In messages sighted across various platforms, he called for massive support in all forms for the “Sylvester Adinam Mensah’s Campaign”. It continued, “#TeamSly wishes to thank all who have so far supported the Renewed Hope Campaign ably led by Hon Sylvester Adinam Mensah. “We are aware that there are individuals ready and willing to contribute to this worthy cause. The team has created this platform for all to be part of this agenda for a new face, a new vision, new leader, and a new set of relationships. “Please dial *447*7*2020# on all networks, follow the prompts and donate to the #Sly2020 Campaign. Thank you!”. As electoral campaigns have become expensive to run, taking advantage of mobile telephony to raise fund has become integral for all the major parties as an effective resource mobilising medium. The NDC only recently reduced the nomination form and filing fees for its flagbearer hopefuls to GHC320,000 after numerous agitations from majority of the party’s personalities expressing interest to contest the primaries set for January 29, 2019.
