The current leadership of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) need to swap politics for UFC, Chairman Wontumi has asserted.
The Ashanti regional Chairman for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) believes the current crop of NDC leaders have demonstrated over time that they are “good in organizing bloody fights” rather than “enhancing and deepening democracy”.
His comments comes on the back of gunshots which were fired by some irate members of the NDC to protest against the decision by the part to name Ali Adolf 2: the Acting Northern Regional Chairman of the party.
“The leadership of the NDC must immediately contact Dana White and Conor McGregor and join the UFC. They don’t have to be in the Democratic space but rather the octagon because this is where they belong”, Chairman Wontumi said to Wontumionline.com.
Some irate National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters on Tuesday, August 23, stormed the Northern Regional office of the party and locked it up.
The angry party youth brazed up the offices of the party fired gunshots and destroyed party properties in protest against the decision of the party to name one of the Northern Regional Vice Chairpersons, Ali Adolf, as the Acting Regional Chairman, instead of their favourite Vice Chairperson, Alhaji Rufai Vielim.
The Northern Regional Functional Executive Committee of the party on August 17 appointed Mr. Adolf as its Acting Chairman, following the death of its Regional Chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Mobila.
In announcing the appointment, Northern Regional Secretary of the party, Mohammed Abdul Salam, clarified in a statement that “For the avoidance of doubt, the National Democratic Congress has no such position as 1” or 2nd vice-chairman position in its current executive structure.”
