The National Chairman of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Samson Asaki Awingobit, has chastised the opposition NDC’s presidential candidate, John Dramani Mahama, for abandoning Bernard Mornah in the face of his disqualification from contesting as president by the Electoral Commission.
In an interview with Philip Osei Bonsu on Ekosiisen on Asempa 94.7 FM on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, the PNC’s top brass expressed anger at the betrayal of John Mahama towards his friend, Mornah.
“O. B, everybody in Ghana knows that Bernard Mornah is an appendage of the opposition NDC, but when he was disqualified by the EC, neither John Mahama nor any of his party executives called him to console him” he said.
“Not even the National Chairman nor Peter Boamah Otukonor bothered to pick a phone to call Bernard Mornah to sympathize with him” he further stated.
According to Chairman Awingovit, it was rather the Vice President and presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who called Mornah to console him.
“We all thought the NPP was behind the disqualification of Bernard Mornah, we were under the impression that the NPP asked Jean Mensa to disqualify our candidate, so we were shocked when it was Dr. Bawumia who rather placed a call to Mornah to speak with him and console him. We knew right away that the NPP was not behind what has befallen Mornah. The NDC Mornah has always been supporting, no one, not even Mahama, called him”
He also revealed that after the 2020 elections, the NPP gave Mornah and the PNC some vehicles for their activities.
“Bernard Mornah is known to be supporting the NDC at all times but nobody from the party called him to console him when he was disqualified and needed him most” the National Chairman of PNC said.
