Tamale (Northern Region) 04 November 2002- Dr Kwesi Botchwey, aspiring presidential candidate of the NDC has stated that he resigned from the Ministry of Finance and not the NDC and cautioned those saying he had come to "sow seed of confusion" in the party to disabuse their minds because he had played an active role in the development of the NDC.
He said at the time he took office as Finance Minister, Ghana's economy was at its lowest level, adding that, he worked hard to bring it back to real economy growth. The former Finance Minister called for a new NDC where grassroots structures would be revised and made strong to enable the party to win elections in 2004.
On selection of parliamentary candidates, he said that the people would decide candidates of their choice and that no one would be imposed on them as was done by the old NDC in the 2000 elections.
"We need a new NDC with a new vision to champion the course of the party to victory" he said. "If we do not win the 2004 elections, the party will be in trouble, he noted, saying, "People are in disillusion and are calling on the NDC to lead them"
