NDC Outdoors 13-Member Commitee To Probe Party’s Defeat

                            
     The Functional Executive Committee of the National Democratic Congress(NDC) with the approval of the Council of Elders has established a 13 member committee to investigate the cause(s) of the party’s abysmal loss to the NPP in the 2016 General Election and recommend the way forward.

The committee is chaired by Former Minister of finance and Chairman of the National Development Planning Commission(NDPC)- Prof Kwesi Botchway.

The Party is scheduled to address a press conference today-29th December, 2016 and outdoor the members of committee.

The committee’s terms of reference will also be announced at the news conference at the NDC headquarters in Adabraka, Accra. The incumbent John Mahama lost the polls to Nana Akufo-Addo becoming Ghana’s next president at the third time of asking.

The Former Attorney General of the erstwhile Kufuor regime obtained more than 50% plus one vote required to beat his main rival, President John Dramani Mahama of the National Democratic Congress in the tight contest held December 7, 2016.

The president-elect will be sworn in on January 7 after a one-month transition period. Mr Akufo-Addo had lost previous elections in 2008 and 2012 but pulled through at the third attempt.        

Ignore ‘Fake’ Ministerial List – NPP

              
Eugene Arhin, Press Secretary to President-elect Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has asked the general public to disregard a list being circulated on social media and other platforms supposedly containing the names of persons pencilled for ministerial and deputy ministerial positions in the incoming administration.

According to him, the list purported to have been signed by him is fake, for which reason the public should disregard it.

He indicated that the official list of appointments would be announced by the president-elect after he has been sworn into office on the 7th of January.

He wrote on his Facebook page on Tuesday December 27: “Again, kindly ignore a statement which is making the rounds on social media, and purportedly signed by me, listing names of persons appointed as Ministers and Deputy Ministers by the president-elect, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. It's completely fake, and a figment of someone's imagination.

“The names of the president-elect's appointees will be put out officially after he is sworn in, God willing, on January 7, 2017.”
