Ghanaians Will Retain NDC In 2016 – Amaliba A member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC)
communication team, Abraham Amaliba, is hopeful
that the hard times the country is going through
will be over and a larger number Ghanaians will
vote to retain the NDC and President Mahama in
office come 2016.
Mr. Amaliba indicated that the story is very
likely to be different if these harsh living
conditions were to remain until 2016.
'In politics one day is even enough for a change
to occur, so let's hope for the better and see
what happens.'
He was speaking in an interview with DAILY GUIDE
in Bolgatanga ahead of a meeting with some NDC
ward executives and communicators.
Amaliba was in the Upper East Region over the
weekend to inform the party's ward executives and
other important party members and dignitaries in
the Bolgatanga Central Constituency of his
intention to contest the Parliamentary
Primaries when nominations are opened.
According Mr. Amaliba, NDC in the Bolgatanga
Central needed a change to make the party and the
name of the constituency a household one across
the country, as the silence of the current Member
of Parliament, Opam Brown Akulbire, in Parliament
and even in the Bolgatanga Central Constituency,
was not helping to sell and connect the party to
development partners.
His comments comes at a time when many NDC diehard
supporters in the Bolgatanga Central Constituency,
have described their Member of Parliament, Opam
Brown Akulbire as a 'No Action MP' who needed to
be changed if the NDC desired to win the that
seat.
Critics have said Amaliba is not close to the
grassroots people and many people in the
constituency do not even know he hails from the
Upper East Region and that he was only taking
advantage of the fact that many NDC supporters
were disappointed with the Member of Parliament
for Bolgatanga Central, Opam Brown Akulbire.
Amaliba however challenged his critics to research
further, saying he served in various capacities
in the Upper East Region and even taught at
Bolgatanga Girls Senior High School before leaving
for Accra. Source - Daily Guide
