National Youth Organizer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Sidii Abubakari Musah has been given a 72-hour ultimatum by youth of the party to explain to them why he became ineffective during the 2016 campaign affecting the entire youth wing within the party.
The Ultimatum was issued by a group called the Aggrieved Youth of NDC in an interview with Starr FM.
“We are giving Sidii three days within which he should come out and tell the NDC youth because of his negligence, selfish interest, because of inability to explore what was given to him, he was sabotaged or rendered incapable by external and internal forces hence the inability to work to the expectation else he should keep quiet and sleep and never dare to contest any position in NDC”, they threatened
According to the leader of the group , Kwabena Eduful who is also the Communication officer of the party in Fanteakwa Constituency in the Eastern region ,Sidii’s failure to energize and mobilize the Youth wing during the 2016 polls ,contributed significantly to the heavy defeat suffered in the just ended December 7 general election.
He said never in the history of the party has the youth wing has been ineffective and less resourced during elections , blaming it on the gross display of incompetence by the National Youth Organizer making him the” worse ” in the leadership of the youth wing .
The Youth wondered why their National Youth Organizer was overshadowed by his opponent in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Sammy Awuku despite his closeness to resources to enable him work.
“Sammy Awuku overshadowed Sidii Abubakar . An opposition youth organizer who has no resources, what prevented Sidii to be sponsored by the government of the day? Sidi is nothing but a failure even the fact that John Dumelo was chosen instead of Sidi to speak at the party’s campaign launch in Cape Coast shows clearly, he was not in charge “
According to the group , Sidii has disappointed many youth in the party and will never be forgiven should he fail to provide tangible reasons to his leadership and the ‘impotency’ exhibited during the 2016 polls.
The NDC has since established a 13-member committee to investigate the cause of the party’s defeat to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2016 elections and make recommendations for reorganization of the party to recapture power in 2020.
The committee is chaired by former Minister of Finance and Chairman of the National Development Planning Commission, Professor Kwesi Botchway.
But the group says, the cause of the party’s defeat needs no probe because the reasons are already known to all and sundry.

The National Youth Organizer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Sidii Abubakari Musah has been ***barred word*** even before he was elected and continued as such until they lost the elections successfully. How come he sits there for John Dumelo to address a rally only to clap for him.
Eeii! Asem b3ba dabi ooh. I thought NDC as a party was unified than NPP. Just one week in opposition and then ultimatum set in ? OK we r watching ooh.
These youth should understand that only NDC die hards did not see the defeat that was obvious.NDC can set up 100 commitees but the reason why they lost was Pred Mahama destruction of the economy.Life was unbearable for majority of Ghanaians and all NDC knew was infrastructure as if NDC party used its own pocket money for those infrastructure.Truth be told that Mahama is the worst president Ghana ever had.He inherited so much oil money and took the biggest loans and yet Ghanaians slept in darknesd for 4 solid years.If they want another humiliating defeat they should bring Mahama in 2020.A word to the wise
never even heard his name.
Not him alone but Kofi Adams the traitor general and Andy Osei Okra the selfish man. They must all resign as soon as possible. How can you give Andy Osei Okra a deputy minister position and at the same time campaign chairman of Asante region when the experienced people are there? What work has he done for the party?. Immediately we lost in 2000, he went to UK and returned in 2006 to work. When FIIFI Quartey and Co were struggling for comeback in 2007 and 2008 he was working in Forestry Commission for his selfish gains only to join the party when the party was in power. Mahama made mistake of engaging these people
Sayoo the infighting has begun.
