NDC Constituency Chairman demands apology from Hebert Mensah

Ekumfi Eyisam (C/R), May 16, GNA - Mr Kwame Nkrumah, Mfantseman East Chairman of National Democratic Congress (NDC), has called on Mr Hebert Mensah, a former Chairman of Kumasi Asante Kotoko, to apologize to NDC delegates who would be attending the Party's Congress in Sunyani for insulting their integrity.

He said for alleging that President John Atta Mills had set aside GH¢90 million to be distributed to the delegates to vote for him in the up-coming presidential primary amounted to insulting the integrity of the delegates.


Mr Nkrumah told the GNA in an interview that Mr Mensah's allegation inferred that the delegates would not use their senses to vote but had to be bought before deciding whom to vote for. This, he said, was an affront to the delegates and Mr Mensah must apologise.

Mr Nkrumah appealed to members Friends of Konadu Agyeman Rawlings (FONKAR) to stop making such wild allegations which could be picked up by the New Patriotic Party against the NDC and also to make reconciliation of President Mills faction and that of Mrs Rawlings after the primaries difficult.


"We are all from the same family and we shall go back to our root after the congress so we must be careful with our deeds and utterances," he said.
