A former National Democratic Congress Member of Parliament for Ablekuma Central says a decision to boycott the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) National Delegate’s Conference was in a bad taste.
According to Theophilus Tetteh Chaie, the party lost a big opportunity to criticize the Nana Addo-led government.

“We lost an opportunity to voice out our challenges to the Nana Addo government. It would have made the news. For me, I believe we lost a very big chance to enumerate our feelings about this government and I think it was not in the right direction to boycott the event.
“The government has taken us for a ride for a very long time and I think that was the time to tell it in their face how they have destroyed the country,” he said on Adom FM’s Morning Show Dwaso Nsem Monday.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) boycotted the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) National Delegate’s Conference in Koforidua partly due to some decisions of President Nana Akufo-Addo which they consider a threat to democracy.
According to General Secretary of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the invitation letter arrived at the party’s headquarters on Thursday when the party was preparing towards the one-week memorial of the death of their 2012 and 2016 Vice Presidential Candidate, Paa Kwesi Bekoe Amissah-Arthur on Friday.
