Reports making round is that General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Fiifi Kwetey, has released a list of NDC MPs who did not betray the party during the approval of President Akufo-Addo’s ministerial nominees.
On Friday, March 24, 2023, the Minority failed to halt the approval of six ministerial nominees (K.T. Hammond, Brian Acheampong, Amin Adam, O.B. Amoah, Stephen Amoah and Asamoah Boateng) as directed by the party as part of efforts to reduce the size of the current government.
Out the 135 NDC MPs in Parliament, close to 40 are said to have approved the nominees.
According to sources, Fiifi Kwetey, who together with other party leaders have condemned the recent incident, has provided the identities of 46 NDC MPs who adhered to the party’s directive via Whatsapp.
