The National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Lower Manya Krobo constituency has suspended former Member of Parliament, Michael Teye Nyaunu, along with three other party members in the constituency, for misconduct.<\/p>\n
According to the NDC’s Constituency Chairman, David Walter Hormelu, they took the decision in accordance with the party\u2019s constitution which stipulates that any member found to have contravened the party’s laws must step aside for a period of six months for investigations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Mr. Hormelu\u00a0did not outline the reasons for Mr. Teye Nayaunu’s suspension but said he had been carrying out activities in the constituency perceived to be against the NDC.<\/p>\n \u201cHonourable Teye Nyaunu and the three others misconducted themselves which is an act against the party\u2019s constitution and we decided to refer them to the disciplinary committee for investigations and then recommendations. Per the constitution, they have to step aside for that investigation to go on.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThey have committed several offences which I am not permitted to be talking about because the matter is before the committee. What I do know very well is that in misconducting himself, he has been carrying out activities in the constituency which are likely to embarrass the party and to bring the party’s name or image into disrepute.,\u201d he explained to Citi News<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Mr. Teye Nyaunu’s most recent major involvement in the NDC saw him lead the NDC\u2019s 2016 campaign team in Lower Manya Krobo, Yilo Krobo, Upper Manya Krobo, Akropong and other constituencies in Akuapem-Krobo enclave in the Eastern Region.<\/p>\n His time in the NDC has however\u00a0not been without controversy as he once broke ranks to endorse the candidature of Nana Konadu Rawlings when she left the party to form the National Democratic Party (NDP) after a failed flagbearership bid within the NDC.<\/p>\n He also forfeited his membership of the National Democratic Congress to contest as an independent parliamentary candidate in the 2012 elections.<\/p>\n –<\/p>\n By: Fred Djabanor\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Lower Manya Krobo constituency has suspended former Member of Parliament, Michael Teye Nyaunu, along with three other party members in the constituency, for misconduct.
