The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has expelled 23 disgruntled members who decided to contest the 2016 elections as independent parliamentary candidates.<\/p>\n

A statement signed by the General Secretary of the party, Johnson Asiedu Nketia said the party\u00a0took the decision because the candidates breached the party\u2019s constitution with their actions.<\/p>\n

Thus the NDC in a statement said, \u201cthe General Secretary acting on behalf of NEC wishes to inform the general public and especially all such persons that they are in breach of articles 8( d,f); 45( a,b,c &e) and 46(10) of the party\u2019s constitution. The affected persons by their conduct and on their own volition have ceased to be members of the party,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n
