This, the UCF said, would come about as a result of hard work, commitment and rebranding of the President, John Mahama and the NDC.
The UCF said they are poised with optimism to remain united and focused in building the front’s structures and protect the very gains made so far with alacrity.
“We surely will defend the party and its leadership under His Excellency John Mahama with tantalising deal bearing in mind the treachery of the enemy who does not see anything good that the good leadership of his Excellency John Mahama brings to the people of Ghana”.
“The enemy’s business is not new. Their negative tool is to undermine the presidency and the President,” they said.
“Ghanaians are smart; they know the enemy has a lot of specs in their eyes which they themselves are incapable of removing”.
These were contained in a 12- point communiqué adopted at a meeting held by a group which was an amalgamation of cadre groups in Accra yesterday.
The communiqué was signed by some of its leadership including the National Co-ordinating Chairman, Comrade Shine Gaveh, the Chairman of the Cadre’s Forum, Comrade Kwedi Anhwere, the National Co-ordinating Secretary of the UCF, Comrade Tom C Brown and the Co-ordinating Chairman of the Accra Regional Branch of the UCF, Comrade Henry Addoquaye Moffat.
