The General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Hon. Fifi Fiavi Kwetey has made a U-Turn on his position that the Flagbearer of the party is not a drunkard.
Earlier, Hon. Fifi Fiavi Kwetey had issued a strong statement condemning what it describes as “unsubstantiated and baseless” remarks made by Hon. Samuel Atta Akyea, Member of Parliament for Abuakwa South, against the NDC’s Flagbearer, H.E. John Dramani Mahama.
The comments were made during a mini-rally on August 28, 2024, where Hon. Atta Akyea allegedly referred to the former president as “a drunkard and an alcoholic.
However Hon. Kwetey in his Release stated that “The NDC has expressed deep disappointment over what they describe as a “descent into the gutter” by a senior member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP). “Such comments not only undermine the decency of political discourse but also expose the desperation of the NPP in the face of an imminent electoral defeat.”
In its statement, the NDC reaffirmed that John Mahama is a respected statesman with an undeniable commitment to the progress of Ghana. “His track record in public service and his enduring leadership qualities speak for themselves,” the statement continued.
Meanwhile, on his Facebook Page, the General Secretary of the NDC, indicated that the statement he issued on behalf of the party defending their Flagbearer was “FAKE.”
Many people who commented on this new development think the claims by Atta Akyeah might be true and that Fifi Kwetey by his U-Turn is agreeing to that claim.
