Paulo Pombolo was speaking at the opening of the I National Methodological Meeting on the Organization of Work of the MPLA, which started this Friday and runs until Saturday, to analyze the directive on the work to be carried out before, during and after the general elections scheduled for the second half of next August.
"Our political message must be mobilizing and convincing to attract more voters. We have several elements that support our word, we do not speak in vain nor in a vacuum", said Paulo Pombolo in his speech broadcast by Angolan public radio.
According to Paulo Pombolo, the party's discourse is "of visible works and achievements, which solve the people's problems".
"The MPLA electoral leaders must focus their action on the communities, identifying potential voters, men, women, young people, former combatants and other segments of the population, appealing for the vote in the MPLA", he urged.
The meeting was attended by the first provincial secretaries of the party, members of the secretariat of the executive committees of the provincial committees, the executive board of the OMA [female party body], the national secretariat of the JMPLA [youth party body], deputies and directors of the Central Committee.
Angola will hold this year, in August, general elections, the fifth since independence.
The MPLA has been in power since 1975, the year in which Angola achieved its independence, having, in the last elections, held on 23 August 2017, won with 61.07 percent of the votes, electing 150 deputies to the National Assembly.
