The party had originally planned to launch the manifesto at the Tamale Sports Stadium in the Northern Region on Saturday October 9.

But a source within the party has hinted Graphic Online that the date has also been moved from Saturday, October 8 to Sunday, October 9, 2016.

Reasons for the change in venue and date was not made known by the source.

The Northern Regional Chairman of the NPP, Mr Daniel Bugri Naabu had earlier stated that the decision to organise the manifesto launch in Tamale was based on the "massive" support the party currently enjoys in the Northern Region, which is perceived to be a stronghold of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC).
