Re-elected General Secretary for the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has described his former Deputy General Secretary Koku Sitsophe Anyidoho as just one of the many principalities who were against his candidature.
According to Asiedu Nketia who polled the highest votes among all the other contestants, the likes of Allotey Jacobs, the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) and other renowned pollsters, all predicted his defeat.
Speaking on Okay FM’s "Ade Akye Abia" Morning Show, he posited that his victory shows that the NDC former Central Regional Chairman, Allotey Jacobs was wrong about him [Asiedu Nketia] being arrogant and a dictator in the party.
“Allotey had his assessment of me wrong; there is a problem with his assessment of me being a dictator and an arrogant person because the king makers who are the delegates think otherwise and then voted massively for me above any other contestants at our congress. I read a report of BNI polls predicting my defeat as well as other polls. This shows the principalities I was fighting against and not only deputy [Koku Anyidoho]”, he said.
He emphatically mentioned that the NPP government wanted him [Asiedu Nketia] out of the way, and tried using his deputy as leverage.
“There is a saying that ‘when a wall cracks open, a cockroach finds its way in and so some people wished they could use the opportunity created that Koku was contesting me and then hijack his campaign to achieve certain ends...this government wanted me out of the way. Ask them, who are they afraid of? We are going into 2020 elections and so they want to get away our key people in order to make the fight easy for them”, he asserted.
Buttressing his point about the NPP government’s scheme to oust him from office, General Mosquito as affectionately called, said even some dye-in-the-wool NPP serial callers were constantly on radio calling for his head; and making spurious allegations against him.
He, however, praised the NDC delegates for being "discerning enough to know what is right for the party and choosing the best leaders they believe can wrestle power from the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming 2020 general elections in 2020".

Look and listen this walking bones as if NPP members were part of the electorates. Just use*less talks all the time.
WERE YOU NOT HOLDING THAT POSITION WHEN MAHAMA GARNERED 44% OF THE VOTES UNPRECEDENTED IN THIS COUNTRY. WHO FEARS THE COMEDIAN IN AFRICAN POLITICS. YOUR STYLE OF POLITICS RATHER ALIENATES THE MASSES AGAINST YOUR USE*LESS PARTY.
kwasiafo NPP people, ASiedu is wiser than your retard president
all these followers of a crack addict think they also have something to say against Asiedu nketia. ***barred word*** animals, they dont even know that NDC has beaten them in a election with a wider margin in 1992 and 1996. we have also won more elections in Ghana than these ***barred word*** following a crack addict.
@EuniceI.ndeed women are usually circumspect when making comments in this space but you have shown that you are as st-u=p=id as most of the lobotomised delegates who voted for this dried up mummy calling himself General Mosquito.I agree with you though on one point. This man is just the type of character the NDC deserves. ***barred word***,always spewing gibberish,telling the most outrageous lies and generally making a f001 of himself.
May the almighty God bless Efo Gyakpata, he said it all they should listening to themselves when they are talking, they think Ghanaian s are bunch of id0its .
Asiedu Nketia and your female jacket awaaaayyyy.Stay in opposition with your arrogance.You guys had the audacity to change Adu Asares name on the ballot paper incompetence paa nie even in opposition All is not well with the NDC Party after this congress
The mosquito is biting himself...
I thought this was the same mosquito who was the NDC's general secretary when the NPP handed them the classic whipping. So who is afraid of him as his bloated ego is suggesting to him? May they complete their "incompetent opposition project (IOP)" by voting the legendary John Mahama as flag bearer. The easiest team to beat!
I followed the whole proceedings because of you. YOU ARE INDEED THE BEST MAN FOR THE JOB. Ignore these ***barred word*** empty barrels who never mind their own business and blame everyone else but themselves for their incompetence
