As democrats, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) should proudly accept their ideology and stop pretending they share in the same ideologies of the 47th President of the United State of America, Donald Trump, who is a republican.
Gordon Asare-Bediako, a renowned journalist with Movement TV and Wontumi Radio asserted that the Republican version of the Great Old Party (GOP) in Ghana is the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
He therefore stated on the Movement Election Lens show that as democrats, the NDC doesn’t use the elephant as their symbol so should cease over celebrating the victory of Donald Trump.
Gordon exposed the NDC for lacking principles by mentioning that before Joe Biden became President, he selected Kamala Harris as his running mate which he said the NDC copied the same format in Ghana.
“NDC said Mahama has also selected Prof Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang so they are one”, he pointed out.
“I have come to the realization that certain people don’t have principles in Ghana. Both NDC and NPP are political parties with international allies. When then General Secretary of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia was looking to the National Chairman of his party, we remember he mentioned certain countries the NDC works with. He said if given the chance he can go to those countries ie Ukraine, Russia and host of others where they have political allies. When you go to America, NPP aligns with Republicans and the NDC, Democrats“.
“In fact from 1992 till date, when Bill Clinton emerged as President, the NDC was in power with Jerry John Rawlings. Then Bush came to power, Kufuor followed in Ghana. In 2008, democrats won with Obama and Mills won in Ghana with democrats“.
“2016 Donald Trump won and Akufo-Addo also won- all republicans. Even if you look at the NDC symbol, it doesn’t match with the republicans. NPP uses the elephant as symbol and the republicans also use same”.
