Some delegates at the ongoing National Delegates Conference of the ruling New Patriotic Party have avowed to oust incumbent John Boadu from the General Secretary position.
The aspirants who spoke to Onua TV/FM’s Yaa Titi Okrah at the Accra Sports Stadium indicated even though they vouched for him for the Secretary position, he doesn’t have time for them. They claim he is very scarce at the party’s office.
“Some of the delegates I have spoken to say they campaigned for John Boadu but he doesn’t have time for them. They don’t even meet him at the party office. They say they brought him to power and will surely bring him down,” Yaa Titi reported.
The commencement of the programme delayed for over six hours. Intelligence picked by our correspondents on the grounds had it that aspirants were applying tactics in allegedly paying the delegates ransoms based on what their opponents offered.
“Per the conversations we have had with some of the delegates, many of the aspirants are confused. From the grounds, the aspirants are paying monies in bundles. So they’re looking at what their opponents are paying so they can top it up or reduce it. That’s what has delayed the system till now,” Yaa Titi reported.
In a related development, former MP for Tema East, Daniel Nii Kwartei Titus-Glover who is aspiring for the National Organiser position says John Boadu, incumbent and aspiring General Secretary should be questioned for the whereabouts of the delegates when asked about the delay.
