Members of the Minority Caucus in Parliament have distanced themselves from a comment by its Deputy Whip endorsing the candidature of Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nketia in the National Democratic Congress’s chairmanship race, they said, the caucus has not taken any such a decision.
According to a statement from the caucus, Mr. Ahmed Ibrahim’s claim was false.
The caucus said that its leadership “has no position on any of the candidates vying for the respective positions in the party.”
“We, accordingly, urge our rank and file and the public to disregard the purported statement made during the launch”, the minority caucus statement stated.
Meanwhile, the caucus said Mr. Ahmed Ibrahim has apologized for the gaffe.
Mr. Asiedu Nketia is leasing his boot to take away the position from the incumbent Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo from the seat.
