The governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has indicated that it will launch its manifesto three weeks after Sunday’s\u00a0campaign launch.<\/p>\n

The entire NDC is expected to\u00a0converge on the Cape Coast stadium in the Central Region, to launch its campaign and also outdoor its Presidential nominee.<\/p>\n

But questions have been asked about why the party is not using the same platform to make its manifesto public with barely four months to the polls in December.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”TQfhARrwgWlM3WpeGKLzt0jYxROjezOY”]Some critics from the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) have gone as far as alleging that, the NDC is only delaying its manifesto launch in a bid to incorporate some of the NPP\u2019s policies and programmes ahead of the election.<\/p>\n

But one of the party’s\u00a0communicators, Solomon Nkansah, refuted these claims in a Citi News<\/strong> interview where he asserted that the party was only following a plan of activities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not delaying. We are following a planned programme, in a matter of three weeks from our launch, unless anything drastic happens, the NDC is launching its manifesto,\u201d Mr. Nkansah revealed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy we always launch our campaign before the manifesto is that we always want to act to galvanize or energize the party and excite it then proceed to launch our manifesto,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

\"Mahama\"<\/a>
President John Mahama is expected to be outdoored as the NDC’s flagbearer in Cape Coast<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mr. Nkansah said he would have revealed the party manifesto to Citi News<\/strong> but for the absence of the NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NPP themselves who are not ready, they want to make Ghanaians believe that it is rather the NDC who are not ready\u2026 It is unfortunate that the General Secretary is not here. I would have walked you to his office and shown you a copy, a bundle, large packed bundles of our manifesto.\u201d<\/p>\n
