The former Deputy Secretary of the Opposition National Democratic Congress Samuel Koku Anyidoho has refuted claims that he was suspended by the party leadership.
On February 9, 2021, the National Democratic Congress issued a statement announcing the suspension of former deputy General Secretary Koku Anyidoho.
In a statement signed by the General Secretary, Johnson Aseidu Nketia, the party said it considered two separate petitions before suspending Anyidoho. This decision according to the party is in accordance with articles 46(1),46(6), and 46(8)(b) of the party’s constitution.
“At its meeting on the 20th January 2021, FEC considered two separate petitions from two registered members of the National Democratic Congress (copies attached) each of which lodged an official complaint against your conduct which is viewed to be in breach of the Party’s disciplinary code for its members as contained in the NDC Constitution. The petitioners are: Mr. Mobarak Abdul Karim (Oti Reg. Com. Officer), Eric Adjei (Bono Reg Dep. Com. Off.),” the letter dated February 8, 2021 read.
“You are therefore by this letter to take note and notice is hereby given, that your membership of the NDC is suspended pending the hearing and final determination of the petitions against your conduct”.
But according to Mr. Anyidoho, in an interview with Nana Aba on Starrfm on Wednesday, March 10, 2021, he maintained that he is still a bonafide member of the NDC. According to him, he has not received any letter of suspension from the party.
“I have not received any letter to that effect. I have not received any news. I’m a bonafide member of the NDC just that I’m doing different things now, the delegates made a choice and I have never been angry. Even that day at Trade Fair, I stayed till the very end. I’m not leaving the NDC no matter what happens,” he told Nana Aba in an interview monitored by Apexnewsgh.com
