A concerned youth group of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Okaikwei North Constituency has vowed to be apathetic towards the party should their preferred candidate, Abdul-Rashid Issah be denied the Okaikwei North Municipal Chief Executive position.

This comes amidst speculations about the potential appointment of a candidate from Okaikwei North Constituency, a sister constituency of the Okaikwei North Municipality.

The group, during a media briefing in Accra on Sunday, April 13, accused the governing NDC of continued neglect despite its contribution to the party’s political fortunes.

Abass Yusif Hussein, the Branch Executive and spokesperson for the group, said, “As an MCE, he will bring inclusiveness, harmony and participatory governance. Your H.E., we must be blunt, any attempts to by pass Abdul-Rashid, respectfully, in the selection of the next MCE for Okaikwei North muncipality will be met with deep disappointment, resistance and potential demoralisation amongst party faithful.”
