Don’t abandon NDC – Asiedu Nketia begs defeated MPs
The General Secretary of the governing National
Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia
is asking all incumbent Members of Parliament who
lost their bid to represent the party again in the
2016 election not to abandon the party.

Long serving legislators like E.T Mensah, Joe
Gidisu and Dr. Mustapha Ahmed’s failed to
retain their parliamentary bid in the just ended
primaries.

Some of these MPs were floored by persons
contesting for the first time.

But Johnson Asiedu Nketia pleaded with the
defeated MPs to rather help the newly elected
candidates to win the various seats for the
party.

Addressing a news conference on Wednesday, Asiedu
Nketia emphasized the need for the NDC to fall on
the experience of such MPs as the party gears up
for the 2016 elections
“We wish to urge all the losers to accept
the will of the masses and join the winners with
renewed commitment to ensure the party emerges
victorious in 2016. Similarly we urge all winners
to be humble and magnanimous in victory to
facilitate all the reconciliation efforts of the
party within the constituencies, remembering
always that they are not yet in Parliament and
that those who gave them the victory are
constantly watching their conduct,” he
explained.
