Victor SmithVictor Smith

Former High Commissioner to the United Kingdom Ambassador Victor Smith has explained that the party's Founder and Chairman of the Council of Elders, former President Jerry John Rawlings is partly to be blamed for the NDC's abysmal performance in the 2016 general elections.

Speaking on Okay FM's Ade Akye Abia's Programme, the former spokesperson for the Rawlingses explained that as a leader of the party, he should have considered the interest of the party before doing things which endangered the party's chances in 2016 general elections.

Meanwhile, the Kwesi Botchwey Committee of the NDC which was set to investigate the poor performance of the party in the 2016 general elections is yet to present its committee reports to the party leadership.
