Audio Attachment:Listen to the Builsa South Mp, Hon. Clement Apaak. |
The Member of Parliament (MP) for Builsa South Constituency in the Upper East Region, and a member of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Foreign Affairs, Hon Clement Apaak has disclosed that some MPs from the Minority side of the House, visited the office of the former President John Dramani Mahama on Wednesday.
According to him, 80 Members of Parliament including himself who believe in John Mahama, decided to visit him and make their intentions known to him that as a matter of necessity, he must lead the NDC in the next general elections in 2020.
He said that though the Parliamentarians met his absence, they were able to relay their message through his Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah.
He made this known on Akomadan based Cruz FM's Morning Show.
"Only yesterday 80 NDC MPs including myself went to the office of the former president, he wasn't present, his Chief of Staff was there, Julius Deborah, and our interest is simple. He's the only person capable of leading the NDC back to victory," Clement Apaak said.
" . . We told him it was not negotiable and whether he likes it or not he will contest," he added.
He however said that the rest of the MPs who were not part were not happy that they were not informed.
" . . That is because others didn't know and they're mad at us . . . those of us who went believe that Mahama is the best person to lead us back into winning power . . . everyone is saying what they like and for us we say Mahama is the one we like . . . it was a private decision by those of us who believe in John Mahama and the fact that we expect him to come back and finish what he has started," he told Cruz FM
He added that the longest serving legislator on the NDC side was not part of the 80 MPs who visited the office of the former President.
The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has 106 members of Parliament after the polls on December 7, 2016 to elect the 5th President and the 7th Members of Parliament of the 4th republic.

Who are this incompetent people and to whom are they dictating to, why are you guys so bitter within, you have the whole nation been entrusted to you for all this years for you only to created an unspeakable mess before leaving, thank God Ghanaian's has decide and elected a mature and a God fearing person with his competent and experience team to clean and fix your mess you created so sit down and learn more especially your lazy young communicators who has been moving from one to other radio and TV stations I am sorry for you guys but trust me you are behaving like JHS students who's teacher is not in classroom
Oh NDC Mahama again it will be a great disaster which cannot be repairs
NDC WANTS TO RETRIEVE ALL THE MONEY YOU HAVE STOLEN
These guys must be crazy. John Mahama epitomises corruption in NDC - Start from the last backwards: Ford Saga, aircraft hangar saga, amajaro saga, and many many more. BRING HIM ON AND YOU WILL REGRET YOU DID. Greedy bastards.
***barred word*** mps
It is not likely for John Mahama to unseat Akuffo Addo in the first term. Impossible. It will be cool chop for Nana. Mahama has lost the respect of the people of Ghana. The best thing for NDC is to bring a fresh man whom they can sell for 2024. For Mahama to contest on 2020 is a huge loss to the party and they will stay in opposition for long. NDC is behaving as if they don't have any other person apart from John Mahama. Ghana is now one party state.
Oh, so you did not inform him you were coming? Or was it a case that he knew you were coming BUT did not what to meet you. Oh, NDC. Doing things byheart! Or was Mahama afraid that he will make a statement and his part will see him as starting to his defeat toooooo early?
MAHAMA AGAIN?THESE GREEDY BASTARDS WANT TO HUMILIATE THIS POOR NORTHENER AGAIN.
NPP across the country Ghana will ACCEPT even NDC General Secretary into NPP easier than accepting Kwabena. Because the latter has lost his trust in the party as at now
