We accordingly urge the rank and file of the great NDC party in particular, and the entire Ghanaian populace in general to disregard the publication and treat it with utmost contempt,’ it said.

Disregard Daily Guide Publication on “fabricated” Kwesi Botchwey report
Our attention has been drawn to a daily guide publication on Tuesday October 24, 2017 with the headline “Probe NDC Chair Over Missing GHc1m Cash…” purporting to be a portion of the Kwesi Botchwey Committee’s report which allegedly indicts the Eastern Regional Chairman for “pocketing money” meant for the campaign.
To start with, the publication is fictitious, fabricated and can simply be described as a bogus reportage.
We accordingly urge the rank and file of the great NDC party in particular, and the entire Ghanaian populace in general to disregard the publication and treat it with utmost contempt.
Whiles the secretariat respects our Chairman’s personal right to initiate a legal action against Western Media Publications (owners of Daily Guide) if he so wishes, we want to state on record that the the said publication is false and no such events occurred.
There was a regional campaign coordinator appointed by FEC who coordinated the raising of funds and disbursement of same for the 2016 electioneering campaign and has accordingly rendered accounts to the Regional Executive Committee. Nowhere in his account was the daily guide publication corroborated. It is therefore ridiculous for the media house to come out with this fictitious reportage.
On record, no such amount came into the region for campaign purposes in the first place, for it to even land in the pocket of the regional chairman.
The party is focused on our re-organization process to recapture power in 2020 from a government who has lost steam even before it’s first year ends. We urge our rank and file to focus and not be distracted by such publications.
Elections 2020 is there to be won and with God on our side, the NDC shall form the next government come January 2021.

Eastern Regional Secretary, NDC
