I Won’t Commit Suicide Over Asiedu Nketia’s NDC Chairmanship Victory – Koku Anyidoho
A former Representative General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho says he will not harm himself over Asiedu Nketia’s chairmanship victory.
According to the former Communications Director at the Presidency, despite the fact that he didn’t want him to win, he is not bothered about his victory.
Mr Koku Anyidoho added this will not keep him from criticizing the party, when it falters.
He added that persons who think outcome of the elections will cause his to commit a suicide are joking.
“I didn’t want Mosquito to win: he won and so I should commit suicide?
Rubbish to say that I predicted a loss for Mosquito and he won so I should keep quiet.
“The number of us have not predicted wins in our lives and lost?,” he said in a tweet on Sunday.
Mr Anyidoho denied allegations that there is a rift between him and his former boss, Johnson Asiedu Nketia.
Speaking to JoyNews, he said despite his issues with the party, Mr Asiedu Nketia asked him to join a committee that would facilitate the nomination of a flagbearer for the 2020 general elections.
“When we entered 2019, Asiedu Nketiah called me that ‘Koku, we’re going to form a committee to work around nominating our flagbearer.
So the committee that elected President Mahama to run again, I was a member of that committee.
If I was bitter that committee would have had records,” he said.
According to Koku, his former boss admitted that the party had realized his “neutrality” in the party was “required so that the other candidates can warm up to the committee.”
Mr Anyidoho was formally removed from the NDC in a letter dated July 27, 2021, after investigations were led to ascertain the veracity of allegations evened out against him by two members of the party.
The allegations included misconduct and anti-party behavior.
