Teye Nyaunu willing to defect to NDP and risk losing seat

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for Lower Manya Krobo says he is willing to formally defect to the newly formed NDP and suffer the consequences of losing his parliamentary seat.

Michael Teye Nyaunu was yesterday one of the key speakers at the NDP’s National Delegates Congress in Kumasi.

He told Joy News the NDC had not been fair to him, especially during the Parliamentaries in his constituency which he lost.

Mr. Nyaunu has been one of the harshest critics of the NDC although he is in Parliament on the party’s ticket.

He said until he finally defects, he still considers himself a bona fide member of the NDC.
