Public Agenda

Mon, 1 Mar 1999 Source: --

The Public Agenda has as its banner headline: "NDC & REFORM FIGHT OVER CADRES". The paper says last week's announcement by the NDC that it was holding talks with the Reform Movement for the support of the party's estranged cadres whose support is crucial for the success of the NDC in the next elections. The paper says, however, that there is a counter statement from the Reform Movement dissociating itself from the so-called series of talks. The Reform Movement not only denied holding any talks with the NDC but dismissed the statement as clearly targeted at cadres, whom the paper describes as the driving force behind the Movement. "It is a scheme by the NDC to confuse and mislead the public", The Public Agenda quotes the Reform Movement as saying. The paper says that a member of the working committee of the Reform Movement Mije Barnor also denied any talks with the NDC on a Radio Gold programme "Rejoinder" last Friday. Instead information available indicated that the negotiations were rather with a faction of the Reform Movement led by Sam Garba, a former member of the working committee of the breakaway movement and member of the team that negotiated with the NDC until the talks broke down later last year.
