A member of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) Communications Team, Stephen Atubiga has categorically stated President John Dramani Mahama will not be seeking the mandate of Ghanaians in 2020 on the ticket of the party if the conduct of some elements remain same.
According to him, measures should be put in place to eschew the betrayal and disgrace that the party subjected the president to in the just ended parliamentary and presidential elections.
“JDM will not contest till we put a lot of things in place to avoid another betrayal and humiliation”, he said.
In his view, many party members have been left hungry, neglected and jobless for long especially the grassroots questioning how the party will be able to bring all on board ahead of the 2020 elections.
“We should be worried about who are going to lead the party from national level to regional down to constituency level. We should be worried about our founding fathers stance in the party, their loyalty and support for JDM 2020. Who is going to be his running mate and what impact is he or she bringing on board? How are we going to fund the party especially going to opposition, NDC has been going through financial crises till date. What language or massage do we have for the grassroots to continue working on empty stomach? How are we going to empower our media and those who go on radio and TV to project the party? We have failed 100% for not taking care of them and their condition is very bad, some can’t put food on the table not talking of transport to the stations. Who are those to manage JDM? His campaign team should cut across all levels, meaning regional balance foot soldiers, people that are accommodative ,accessible, humble, charismatic, and those that have a history of looking out for the welfare of members when they had opportunity in government”

I thought your boss said the economy is on course and we are middle income! You see your lie$?!?
Mr deputy minister, who says NDC is poor? The oil money which president Mahama, his brother Ibrahim and Petroleum minister Armah Kofi ***barred word*** have stolen is more than the sand at the seashore! Go to them for your share.
Is the NDC as a party saying that none of the people that were in the government for 8 years is fit enough to take over the presidential candidacy from Mahama that you have to bring this empty barrel back? You must as well dissolve the party and go home. This is really disgraceful and disappointing. What about if this man gets a heart attach tomorrow and die, will you bring him back from the dead kingdom to lead the party? You are really a National Disgraceful Congress.
Yen tie obiara. As an astute politician the president should have known that elections in our country have always been closed so I wonder how and why he thought it was as he put it "one touch" for him. It might take a very bad government and governance for the npp to loose the 2020 election because of the margin of votes. There is a real apathy and discomfort among our traditional voters among the middle Gas. Check the results of the constituencies where the demography favours the ndc because of the large population of Gas but lost. A word to the wise is .....
Are now going to give foot soldiers jobs when you are out in government
Mahama was his own enemy. He was just like an armed robber in a well suited cloth. He blatantly came to power to amass undesirable wealth, and he couldn't give a dime to the several words of caution. He knew nothing but money. JJ was right in calling him a greedy b4r5tard.
all this were happing in the NDC and u kept quite as if all is well.stay there and surffer
Mr. Atubiga, the pretender,when did you realize all the good things for your foot soldiers? Now that you guys are out of power,how and where are you going to get the resources to convince, organize and motivate them to do the monkey dey work baboon dey chop for you again? Ghanaians are very discerning. Your wild propaganda that you have adopted will keep you in opposition for long.
I can't really believe John Mahama is being muted as a possible candidate come 2020. This totally weak, spineless man than was foisted upon us for over 6 years. NDC must really be lacking in leaders!
Remember the bashing of our "esteemed clergy", and you thought God was gonna sit down unconcerned? Our culture as a nation is to respect the elderly, but look at the way and manner in which JDM and his sharp teeth boys humiliated our elders? They should go back to reflect on the nasty things they unleashed on Ghanaians. General Mosquito tought he could take everyone for a ride? God is watching! God bless Ghana!
