Konadu has given away her legacy and dignity– Lecturer

A Political Scientist, Ransford Gyampo says Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings has given away her hard won political legacy and dignity within the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC).

To the respected lecturer, Mrs. Rawlings’ chosen political path is “very risky” although the national constitution offers her the right to lead any political party of her choice.

Mr. Gyampo said this on an Accra based radio station.

Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings was on Saturday endorsed at the maiden congress of the National Democratic Party (NDP) in Kumasi as the party's presidential candidate.

“She (Nana Konadu) has left her invaluable legacy within the ruling party as a key founding member. Her quest to contest Professor Mills was not (suitable) that was why she seem to have been humiliated until the time that she tended in her resignation, she was still seen as a serious force to reckon with within the party,” Mr. Gyampo asserted.

He continued that Nana Konadu's decision to quit the NDC may pay off if her intention is to push the party into position “and then with the help of her husband, re-capture it when the party has been in opposition.”
