Chairman of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Bernard Mornah is asking whether the party’s former Youth Organiser Abu Ramadan is still a member of the PNC.
Responding to Mr Ramadan’s clamour for him (Mornah) to resign together with General Secretary Atik Mohammed over the Electoral Commission’s disqualification of their flag bearer Dr Edward Mahama from the presidential race over certain clerical infractions, Mr Mornah asked Prince Minkah, host of the Executive Breakfast Show on Class91.3FM: “Is he [Abu Ramadan] still with the PNC?”
“Of course he has not formally revoked his membership of the party but just ask [him] at any point in time, whether he has shown faith for any activity of the party apart from when the IEA organised the presidential encounter that he just walked pass there because the public was invited,” Mr Mornah said.
According to him, instead of jumping from one radio station to another demanding his resignation, his critics, were they “serious and concerned party member” would have rather joined forces with the national executives to resolve the matter.
In calling for Mr Mornah and Mr Mohammed’s resignation, Mr Ramadan argued that it was their duty to ensure that the nomination forms of Dr Edward Mahama were properly filled in order for the party to partake in the presidential election.
For the first time in the Fourth Republic, the PNC will not take part in a presidential election following the disqualification which Mr Ramadan blames on the two national executives.
Apart from Dr Mahama, 12 others were also disqualified. The others are: Flag bearer of the All People's Congress (APC), Hassan Ayariga; Dr Agyenim Boateng of the United Front Party (UFP); Kofi Akpaloo of the Independent People's Party (IPP); Kwabena Adjei of the Reformed Patriotic Democrats (RPD); and former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings of the National Democratic Congress (NDP).
The others include: Dr Henry Herbert Lartey of the Great Consolidated Popular Party (GCPP); Mr Richard Nixon Tetteh (United Development Systems Party); Thomas Ward-Brew of the Democratic People’s Party (DPP); Alfred Kwame Asiedu Walker, an independent candidate, and Akua Donkor of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP). Mr Akwasi Addae Odike of the United Progressive Party's nomination is on hold pending a court case.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen political programme on Tuesday October 11, Mr Ramadan said: “Bernard Mornah and Atik Mohammed should resign within one week because they were supposed to have ensured that the forms were properly filled. The flag bearer could not have done it alone. The General Secretary and the National Chairman should have gone through the nominations form to ensure that it was properly filled before the submission.”

NPP was lucky to have suspended some key executives in the party. They would have also suffered the same fate
Bernard Monah is behind DR. MAHAMA'S disqualification. He is an NDC Agent in PNC.Doctor if you don't sack him e go sell your party. Take a car and make sure DR. MAHAMA is disqualified.
It's actually WOLF in SHEEP's clothing... You're part of the problem of today's educational failure. We should have had 100 Ama ATA Aidoo's teaching in Ghana!
Mornah, where is the car you clandestinely took from the NDC? Please tell us about that before you question some one else's loyalties
Bernard Mornah and the General Secretary of PNC failed and must admit their negligence and do the honourable thing - resign. What are they there for? Is it do propaganda? All these guys want to run our dear country while they lack attention to details. We thank God, they are disqualified. They would have been signing contracts without reading the terms of the contract just like the one Woyome had.
ABU RAMADAN AND ATIK MOHAMMED ARE ALL NPP MEMBERS I KNOW THAT FOR SURE
Bernard Mornah are you still with NDC?
