The National Treasurer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Charles Dwamena, best known as Dr. China has urged members of the party to contribute financially to the welfare of the party at all times.
Dr. China was of the view political parties thrives on payment of dues and other contributions, hence the need for party faithful to contribute their quota going forward.
This comes after the National Executive Council (NEC) of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) approved new fees for members across the country and also for all the external branches.
The new approved fees come in four categories: Bronze, GH¢2.00 per month, Sliver GH¢5.00 per month, Gold, GH¢ 8.00 per month and Platinum, GH¢10.00 per month.
The new membership dues payment system, which can be assessed by simply dialing *920*270# and following the prompts, is designed and structured into various categories powered by an in-built technology where every member can easily and conveniently pay their dues.
He explained that those who have registered for their membership card and have still not received their cards could still go ahead and pay their dues likewise those who haven’t even registered for their card.
“Since you are making payment with your mobile money, once you later get your membership card, every payment you’ve made with your mobile number will be recorded on the card for you and thus, the absence of the membership card shouldn’t be a hindrance”, he said.
“I will encourage that we all pay our dues and register to become members of the party so that by close of year, we could be able to account for what we have earned as a party so we can execute a lot more projects and plans for the party”, he added.
