The Mfantseman East and West Constituencies Chairmen of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Kwae Nkrumah and Mr Stephen Edward Moore have appealed for calm in the party.
Speaking to the press at Ekumfi Eyisam in the Mfantseman Municipality, the Chairmen expressed concern about the possible division recent events in the party could create and said if an early solution was not found it could harm the party in the 2012 elections.
Mr Nkrumah urged foot solders who were calling for the replacement of Professor John Evans Atta Mills for the 2012 elections to explain what they meant by government side-lining the former first family and foot soldiers which was the basis for their agitation.
He said "side lining" had many connotations and that Ghanaians who elected Prof Mills to office had to know what they were referring to.
Mr Nkrumah pointed out that in the run-up to the 2008 general elections, the New Patriotic Party used "a vote for Mills is a vote for Rawlings" as a campaign message which went down well with the electorate.
He said the constituency executives of NDC had to explore every means to refute that message and to make the people to believe that the learned Professor would be his own man when elected and that he would allow anybody to dictate to him on how to govern the country.
The Constituency Chairman said if by doing so the President's action could be interpreted as having side-lined certain people then he had an unfortunate problem.
He reminded the foot soldiers and their cronies that the Ghanaian electorate had matured in taking decisions on what was good for them, therefore they must be extra careful in whatever they did in order not to hand over power to the opposition on a sliver platter.
For his part, Mr Moore appealed to Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings to declare her position on the agitations for her replacing Prof Mills in the 2012 elections for the teeming supporters of the party to know where they are going.
He said they could have dismissed the agitation as wishful thinking but certain pronouncements by the former first lady and her husband recently had given credence to the agitation.
Mr Moore accepted the fact that Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings had the constitutional right to contest any position in the party or in the state but "what we are saying is that it is premature for her to take that decision now," and added that at the appropriate time the entire party shall throw its weight behind her bid.
He pointed out that since the inception of the Fourth Republic, presidents elected were permitted to serve a mandatory two-term in office.
"Unfortunately, attempts to kick out President Mills are being initiated by his own party not because he is performing badly but because he has stepped on the toes of the powers that be," he stated.
He said the performance of the President within these 20 months had been hailed in many quarters and many donor supports had started coming in because of his good work.
Mr Moore pointed out to the agitators that if they did not take care they could make the donor support to be withheld making the nation to lose funds for development.
