The National Chairman of the NDC Samuel Ofosu Ampofo has reportedly advised Johnson Asiedu Nketia, aka Mosquito, to concentrate on explaining to party members what he plans to accomplish if the elected general secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Asiedu Nketia and Ofosu Ampofo are expected to compete closely for the position of NDC National Chairman at Congress.
Ofosu Ampofo, however, asserts that if anyone, including his General Secretary, lacks a message, they should give up and permit him to run unopposed because he has a lot to offer the political party.
Chairman Ofosu Ampofo, who was addressing the media after wrapping up his campaign in the Greater Accra Region, was perplexed as to why his rivals had turned to propaganda in the run-up to the election rather than actual concerns.
He believes that his opponent's assertions that he is collaborating with party members who have been suspended are fiction rather than actuality.
"It is a figment of their own imagination. Under no circumstance will I take people who have been ousted from the party to be part of my campaign team. I ended my campaign in the Greater Accra Region Yesterday and about 10 to 15 constituency Chairmen were following me as members of my campaign team. I don’t lack people who will campaign for me who are bonafide members of the NDC.
"Those who are contesting me should come and tell the people what they will do when they are voted for to become National Chairman and others. Those contesting me should not hide behind people and say that Koku Anyidoho, Yaw Boateng Gyan, Dela Coffie, and Allotey Jacobs are regular panel members on Ahotor FM which is a radio station which belongs to me. None of them has been a panellist on my radio station.
"I want to use this medium to dismiss the propaganda and to also let them know that if they don’t have a message, they should throw in the towel and withdraw from the race."
