SYVESTER MENSAH: THE BEST MAN FOR NDC 2020 – KWABENA EDDUFUL

The National Democratic Congress is re-strategizing to wrestle power from the New Patriotic Party in the next general elections in 2020. This follows the party’s defeat in the recently held general elections that saw incumbent President, John Mahama of the NDC’s ambition to serve a second term quashed.

The Presidential candidate of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) Nana Akufo-Addo defeated President Mahama with a 53.85 percent lead in all valid votes cast, against the latter’s 44.40 percent.

The NDC’s defeat has sent shock waves through the rank and file of the party, with many blaming the leadership of the party for the loss.

Kwabena Edduful who is NDC activist and National Coordinator for Friends of Sly, in an interview this morning on Radio1 Breakfast Show ‘Susubiribi’ said the best choice for NDC to bounce back in 2020 is Sylvester Mensah.

According to Kwabena Edduful, Sylvester Mensah has the qualities to lead NDC bounce back to victory in 2020.

Speaking to the host Osahene Kofi Owusu, Kwabena Edduful said Sylvester is the only man who can bring unity and help NDC grab victory in 2020.

“We are all behind him, we believe in him and we know he is the only one who can help the NDC party and the Country”, he said.

Earlier this year, Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) secured permission from the court to freeze the bank accounts of the former NHIA CEO following investigations into his tenure of office.

According to the FIC, after investigations were concluded, they could not associate Mr Mensah with any illegality.

Mr Mensah’s bank accounts were frozen in January this year after an ex-parte application sought by the Financial Intelligence Centre.

This was in line with the BNI’s investigations into an alleged false claim by some 10 medical facilities, with suspicions that the processes were compromised.

There were speculations in January that the arrest of the former La Dade Kotopon MP could be linked to a grand effort to scuttle a possible presidential ambition he could be nursing.
