Minister chants NPP slogan at NDC meeting
The Deputy Eastern Regional Minister, Mavis Ama
Frimpong, on Monday shocked the Eastern Regional
executives of the National Democratic Congress
(NDC) when she chanted the slogan of the
opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), during a
meeting with the National chairman of the party,
Dr. Kwabena Adjei at the Residency.

The deputy minister, chanted "kukurudu kukurudu
kukurudu" to prepare the grounds for her welcome
address.

The deputy minister realized the blunder when her
attention was drawn to it, compelling her to
apologize. Some of the executives wondered why the
deputy minister could commit such an unpardonable
mistake.

The meeting with the regional executives formed
part of Dr Adjei’s campaign tour of the region
which started on Monday. Dr. Adjei and his
campaign team also held a meeting with other party
executives from some five constituencies.

Speaking to the media after the meeting, Dr. Adjei
stated that his chances of retaining the
chairmanship position are bright having weighed
the massive thumps up from party delegates in five
regions visited so far.

He said his track record of bringing the party to
power from opposition and support given to the
party grassroots would be translated into massive
endorsement for continuation from the delegates.

He described as laughable accusations by his
competitors that he is too dull. According to him,
chairmanship position is a statesmanship seat,
hence, the need to calm down and work underground
for the success of the party.

"We need diplomacy and statecraft, we are not in
revolutionary era where we do things bugabuga, we
use wisdom and knowledge to manage the party-who
in the NDC is more wild than me...? Go and check
my background," he challenged.

He said the NDC cannot afford to lose the 2016
general election; therefore, there is the need for
the delegates to maintain a winning team that
would work hard to increase the current votes of
the party. Dr Adjei and his campaign team are
expected to be in the region for three days to
meet delegates of the party.
