The leadership of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has advised the Member of Parliament for the Lower Manya Constituency, Michael Teye Nyaunu, to re-apply to become a member of the party.
According to the NDC, Mr. Nyaunu lost his party membership after he contested the Lower Manya seat as an independent candidate against the party�s regulations.
Mr. Nyaunu lost the elections to the Deputy Eastern Regional Minister, Ebenezer Terlabi in the December 7 polls.
The defeated MP earlier told Citi News he was still a member of the party but the National Organizer of the NDC, Yaw Boateng Gyan, insists that Mr. Nyaunu should re-apply to be accepted as a member.
�We always have to follow principles and have to be disciplined. If you want to join a party like NDC, then of course they have to re-apply and we will have to consider whether they are worth being admitted as new members of the party.�
In an interview with Citi News, Mr. Boateng Gyan explained that Mr. Nyaunu�s name has been struck out of the party�s membership list and �we have just given directives to the people that he is no more a member of the party.�
He added, that party members who also supported the MP�s independent candidature will also be sanctioned and kicked out of the party.�
