Former Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has vowed never to allow his former boss, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, popularly known as General Mosquito, to be National Chairman of the party.
Samuel Koku Anyidoho said Mosquito’s only motivation to be chairman is to use the position for his “personal perfidious ambition”.
He made the comment in series of posts on Twitter while announcing his come back to active NDC politics.
I thought Asiedu-Nketiah wanted to be General Secretary for life! Why does he now want to become National Chairman? He only wants to become National Chairman so he can use Article 25 of the Party’s Constitution to become Leader, and pursue his personal perfidious ambition.

Mr Anyidoho explained that he is against the candidature of General Mosquito because he is the “most poisonous and destructive element within the top of NDC.”
Asiedu-Nketiah is the most poisonous and destructive element within the top of the NDC and he shall be exposed and NOT allowed to become National Chairman and Leader of the Party of Jerry John Rawlings.

The former Deputy General Secretary is convinced General Mosquito is not fit to be NDC National Chairman.
Asiedu-Nketiah, as National Chairman and Leader of NDC? Kai!!!

Mr Anyidoho added that though incumbent National Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo, has failed, General Mosquito is certainly “not the alternative”.
Article 25 of the NDC’S constitution states that, when we are in opposition and not elected a Flagbearer, the National Chairman doubles as the Leader of the Party. Currently we have no Flagbearer. Ofosu-Ampofo has failed to be Leader but Asiedu-Nketiah is NOT the alternative.
