Kofi Adams Beg For Konadu

-Urges NDC to extend olive branch to her




Suspended deputy general secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Kofi Adams has made a passionate appeal to the leadership of the party to consider the reintegration of Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings and members of the NDP to ensure smooth victory.
Speaking on Joy FM’s radio and television current affairs and news analysis program, “News File” last Saturday, Mr. Adams said in other to ensure the re-election of President John Mahama and the NDC in the upcoming December polls, it is important all lovers of the NDC must impress on the leadership to extend an olive branch to Nana Konadu and the members of the National Democratic Party (NDP).
“All that I want to say, for those of us who wish for the re-election of the NDC and President John Mahama, we strongly think that party leadership would have to find a way of working out and extending a hand to our brothers and sisters in the NDP. It’s very key, it’s very important…,” Mr. Adams stated.

According to Mr. Adams, who also doubles as spokesperson to the Rawlingses, it is those who don’t have the NDC at heart, who are wishing the former first lady had succeeded in filing her nomination papers on the ticket of the NDP.
“As for those who complaining that they were unhappy with the NDP’s inability to file their nomination…possibly they are not people who really wish the NDC that well. If they do, I don’t think that they will be celebrating”.
In an apparent reference to statements made by the managing editor of the Insight newspaper, Mr. Kwesi Pratt jnr., he considers cynical, Mr. Adams said:
“For those who are shouting ‘and that would have shown smoothness level’; if contesting elections and winning or losing, or your performance will determine whether you contribute politically in this country, then persons like Kwesi Pratt and co, would not have been talking. Because he had contested elections in 1996 and he lost heavily. It was a humiliating defeat. But he is still making his contributions in terms of talking on radio…I’m bringing him (Pratt) in because he is the one who introduced that…that the Electoral Commission should even give NDP one month grace to file their nomination; being sarcastic as usual of him (Pratt).”
Mr. Kwesi Pratt had earlier stated on last Friday’s edition of Peace FM’s flagship programme, “Kokrokoo”, that his greatest wish was for the former First Lady to have the unique opportunity of contesting the December general elections, and see her “smoothness level” after the declaration of the results.

He pleaded with the Electoral Commission (EC), to grant Nana Konadu a grace period of “one month” for her party, the National Democratic Party (NDP), to completely fill out her nomination forms and submit them to the electoral body.




KONADU STILL A MEMBER OF NDC
-Her purported resignation letter null and void


Documents cited by The Al-Hajj has revealed that former first lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings’ purported resignation from the NDC is after all, a hoax.


The Al-Hajj can today confirm that until otherwise determined, by a competent court of jurisdiction, Nana Konadu who is the wife of NDC founder, Jerry John Rawlings remains, and can continue to hold herself out as a bonafide NDC member.

Nana Konadu’s supposed resignation letter gleaned by this paper only exposes her crass incompetence and the confused state of mind thereby, rendering it ineffective.

Elsewhere in this paper on page 10, is a copy of Nana Konadu’s assumed resignation letter, dated 12th October 2012, which ostensibly was meant for the Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), but in actual fact, ended up being addressed to the Chairman of the National Democratic Party (NDP), the party she rather wanted to join?

As if that was not enough, Nana Konadu, in the heading of the same letter titled it: Letter of Resignation from the National Democratic Party (NDP) again, and not the NDC, given her away as a confounded person.

In our last week Thursday edition, The Al-Hajj reported how it was the turn of Nana Konadu to suffer the consequences of the many months of subjected former president John Mills to daily barrage of attacks, character assassination and image battery leading to his premature death, last July.
We also reported that Konadu’s main purpose of wanting to contest this year’s poll on the ticket of the NDP ‘at all cost’ was to scuttle the chances of the late President Mills’ heir, John Mahama, and also to send the NDC into opposition.
However, as providence, fired by the spirit of the late president Mills will have it, vindictive Nana Konadu could not correctly fill out simple forms provided by the Electoral Commission to enroll for the December polls, thus crashing out of the actual contest.
The Al-Hajj will also want to believe that it is in the same hopelessness that Nana Konadu, also NDC founder’s wife, shoddily wrote the supposed resignation letter, which technically speaking, has rendered the letter null and void.
Until then, and in the opinion of The Al-Hajj, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings remains an NDC member.
In effect, the supposed Nana Konadu’s letter was, and is not meant for the chairman of the NDC.
