Carl Wilson Contests For The NDC Weija Parliamentary Seat

Attention!!! Carl (Car) Wilson Contests For The NDC Weija Parliamentary Seat










The former Chairman of the Confiscated Vehicles Allocation Committee (CVAC), Carl


Wilson, popularly known as "Car Wilson" has dismissed reports making round that he


has been disqualified from contesting in the forthcoming primaries for the election


of a parliamentary candidate to represent the ruling National Democratic Congress


(NDC) in the Weija constituency.





A publication in Monday's edition of The Publisher newspaper claimed "Carl Wilson,


having been booted out of office after the youth of the NDC besieged the

headquarters, is out with intention to lead the people of Weija Constituency in the


region. But his dream is now shattered because his application has been turned down


by the rank and file of NDC.?





In an interview on Radio Gold, Carl Wilson described the publication as false and


propaganda and denied that he has been disqualified. According to him, he went


through a successful vetting process and has even been given the authority to


campaign. He was therefore pleasantly stunned to see the publication indicating


otherwise.





According to him, it was a very big surprise that see a publication that he was not

qualified, because he went through vetting and everything was successful, there was


nothing to suggest that he had any trouble or somebody has anything against me.





Despite the fact that the same paper has castigated Carl Wilson many times as a


vindictive person, Carl said ?when you know you are doing the right thing, you don't


have to be afraid.?





Is it not really strange that somebody like Carl (Car) Wilson, a former Chairman of


the Confiscated Vehicles Allocation Committee (CVAC) who was thrown out of Office


for stealing cars from the Tema Harbour could be allowed to contest for the NDC


Weija parliamentary seat?
