The General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has admitted that the NDC has built an expensive ultra-modern office complex, but will not disclose how much it costs.<\/p>\n
The 4-storey building has been at the center of controversy since news broke that the party spent about US$20 million to construct it.<\/p>\n
He said upon strategic calculations the party realized that a new office complex would be better than maintaining their previous office at Asylum Down in Accra and continue to pay rent.<\/p>\n

At a press conference at the new office in Adabraka on Wednesday, General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu told Citi News\u00a0<\/strong>that “If you want any information from our office or indeed from anybody, you don\u2019t go putting wrong information into the media first and be calling us to respond. I have said that whoever says NDC has built a 20 million dollar office or NDC is moving into a 20 million dollar office complex, that may be his business. He may not be referring to this office, so I cannot be answering questions about a 20 million dollar mansion because I don\u2019t know where it is located. So this is a new office we have acquired.\u201d<\/p>\n
