After President Mills’ demise
-
Sekou Nkrumah, son of Ghana’s first President and an avowed critic of
the late president John Evans Atta Mills, who resigned from the NDC to
join the campaign of the NPP flagbearer, Nana Akufo-Addo is
contemplating rejoining the NDC, Impeccable intelligence picked by The
Al-Hajj reveals.
Mr. Nkrumah who resigned last year from the National Democratic Congress
(NDC) after several public disparagement of the Mills administration
has consistently said he wants to ensure the NDC is kicked out of power.
But less than ten days after he and his ilk hounded president Mills to
his early grave, Sekou, according to Intel report picked by this paper,
is seriously considering going back to the NDC to campaign for the John
Mahama-led NDC to retain power.
About a month before his untimely death, Sekou Nkrumah, on Asempa FM’s
Ekosii Sen programme demanded President Mills should honourably resign
from office because in his own words; he is not fit enough to occupy and
discharge the duties of that high office.
“It is clear the president is not fit for that post and should resign,” Sekou declared on Asempa FM on Tuesday June 19.
But National Propaganda Secretary of the ruling NDC, Richard Quashigah
says Dr. Sekou Nkrumah has betrayed his Father, Dr Kwame Nkrumah by
aligning himself with NPP.
Mr. Quashigah in an interview with XYZ News said he is baffled by Dr
Sekou Nkrumah’s decision to join forces with an offshoot of the UP
tradition which, according to him attempted to assassinate Dr. Nkrumah.
However, when The Al-Hajj contacted Dr. Sekou on the matter, he said it
is too early to talk about his rejoining the NDC and that if anything,
that decision could wait until after the December elections.
“It is too early to talk about my return to the NDC, the problems are
still in the NDC, but we can talk about that after the elections,
whether win or lose…” Dr. Sekou said in an interview.
Dr. Sekou Nkrumah, an avid critic of the late former president John
Mills last Friday, in the company of our Managing Editor paid his last
respect to the late president when he signed the book of condolence in
his honour at the Banquet Hall in Accra.
