Kwabena Owusu Aduomi has vehemently dismissed allegations that he is a member of the oppostiton National Democratic Congress (NDC).
In an address to the media ahead of the Ejisu By-election, the former member of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr Aduomi reiterated that, as much as he is not a member of the opposition party, he is loved and admired by the NDC due to his credibility and fairness.
He said, “I am not an NDC member. The NDC people like me because of the work I did that benefited them. Where have they seen me wearing NDC colours? The NDC people want to vote for me because I am going independent and because of the work that I did for the constituency.”
Being described as a traitor by members of his former party, the Independent candidate intensely dismissed the notions that he is a traitor. He rather urged members of the NPP to solve their internal issues and stop throwing shades at him, describing him as a traitor.
He noted, “I am not a traitor and NPP should rather solve all issues bothering all members of the party and should not favour some people against others."
“That bogus elections that they said they held at the polling stations, if the president has the party and the Ejisu constituency at heart, he will ensure that the issues that the people brought will be solved,” he stated.
The Ejisu by-election became necessary following the sudden passing of the Member of Parliament, John Kumah after battling with ill-health for a short period.
The Ejisu constituency is a strong hold for the NPP but there narrative is taking a different following the intention of a former Member of Parliament for the NPP, standing as the independent candidate.

Traitor? Who is a traitor but one who turns his back on those who trusted him. So NPP is the biggest traitor. NPP promised us heaven on earth they have given us hell on earth. Very irresponsible buying people with votes and because of the extreme hardship visited on the people they agree to take peanuts and vote against their conscience. Pay time will come as they NPP moves into opposition. Like the proverbial ostrich they have buried their head with eyes in the sand so could not see. Aduomi I wish you well and I wish you win. NPP can tickle themselves and laugh but at the right time they will laugh at the wrong side of their mouth.
I wish that Bill is oaased into Law asap for mE Kodi Asante m's wide to report him for forcing her to do 'BJ' for him. Then they will know that they have supported a .......
You people can cry blood, the whole NPP government is a traitor to Ghana. They have betrayed Ghanaians and dinning with their western allies who want to impose LGBT on Ghanaians.
Yes, you are a traitor by all standards. You were voted for to unseat a cabinet minister and you were happy. In the same process, someone was also voted for to unseat you and you decide to turn your back to the party that gave you that opportunity to even become a deputy minister. Go and ask the NDC people who are rooting for you because they are not in this competition if this is how their true members behave. Let them support you and win but the day of reckoning will come in December when they abandon you to go and support their own candidate in the general election and you will see your smoothness level.
