A diplomat in the Mahama administration and a failed parliamentary candidate for Abuakwa North, Victor Smith, believes that an overhaul of the NDC\u2019s executive structure is non-negotiable following the party’s overwhelming defeat in the 2016\u00a0elections.<\/p>\n
Everyone from the General Secretary, Johnson Nketia to the NDC’s Chairman, Kofi Poturphy, must be kicked out at\u00a0the party’s next congress in favour of what Mr. Smith called new “die-hard selfless people.”<\/p>\n
Speaking on the Point Blank<\/strong> segment of Eyewitness News<\/strong>, Mr. Smith\u00a0emphatically that, “we should change the whole guard. We should start with some die-hard selfless people\u2026 I think he [Asiedu Nketia] has been there long enough. We should just clean the stables.\u201d<\/p>\n This is in spite of the fact that he sees nothing wrong with maintaining former President John Mahama, who led the NDC to its monumental defeat from a position of incumbency.<\/p>\n
