‘NDC Bloated Membership Figure’
NATIONAL ORGANIZER of the New Patriotic Party
(NPP), John Boadu, has accused the ruling National
Democratic Congress (NDC) of exaggerating the
number of its registered members across the
country.

According to him, the number of NDC members that
turned up to vote during the party’s recent
presidential and parliamentary primaries indicated
that the NDC bloated the number of its card
bearing members.

He said places that the NDC claimed to have
registered about 7000 members, only 2000 people
turned up to vote, which clearly shows that the
number of people that the NDC claimed to have
registered was a lie.

Mr. Boadu noted that the NDC intentionally
exaggerated the figure of its membership just to
make Ghanaians believe that it has a huge
following, indicating that “the elections
have exposed the NDC lies”.

The NPP National Organizer was addressing
residents of Odumase Electoral Area in the Manhyia
South Constituency in Kumasi during the
‘Meet Your MP’ programme, organized
by the MP of the area, Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh.

Mr. Boadu, who was a guest speaker at the highly
patronized event, said the NDC is known for its
lies and therefore called on Ghanaians to vote the
NDC out of political office in 2016 to help save
Ghana from further degeneration.

He lambasted President Mahama for presiding over a
corrupt government, pointing out that the huge
number of NDC members that voted ‘no’
against the president at the NDC presidential
polls, shows the president is not performing.

Mr. Boadu said northerners in the country have
been let down by President Mahama, who also hails
from the north, saying “money which should
have been used to develop the north, have landed
in the pocket of individuals”.

The NPP Organizer alleged that President Mahama
and his friends have distributed money for the
northern development among themselves, leaving the
northerners to their own fate, “so he must
be voted out of office”.

Mr. Boadu lauded Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh for
initiating the ‘Meet Your MP’
programme to know the concerns of his people,
urging other NPP MPs to emulate the shining
example of the Manhyia South MP.
