PNC’s Ayariga Slams Rawlingses

-What is it that they want again?

The flagbearer of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Hassan Ayariga has descended heavily on the Rawlingses on reports of their support for the new political party, the NDP.

Mr. Ayariga is wondering why the Rawlingses wouldn’t attempt to resolve the problems within the NDC if any, but try to form a new party.

The National Democratic Party (NDP) which is yet to receive certification from the Electoral Commission is mainly made up of disgruntled members of the NDC.

Speaking to XYZ News, Mr. Ayariga noted that the conduct of the Rawlingses since they left power in 2000 makes it difficult to actively engage them in the NDC’s activities.

“I am not a member of the NDC but my issue is the Rawlingses have ruled with the NDC for 20 years, people fought for them, people supported them even people died for them to rule, so what is it that is in the NDC that they cannot solve that they have to form a new party.

“If there are challenges in the NDC, which Rawlings is the founder; I believe that the beauty of democracy is to be able to solve the challenges that confront you”.
