NDC must stay in opposition for 16 years – Kweku Baako
Managing Editor of the New Crusading Guide has
vowed to work tirelessly to keep the National
Democratic Congress (NDC) in opposition.

According to Abdul Malik Kweku Baako Jnr. the
political party which performed shambolically in
the 2016 general elections needs to stay in
opposition to restructure the NDC.

“NDC must stay in opposition for 16 years; its
therapy and they need it” he stated on Peace
FM’s morning show Kokrokoo Wednesday.

Kweku Baako made the comment while discussing the
rush for the flagbearership slot by some leading
members of the NDC even before former President
John Mahama declares his intention to contest.

Former Majority leader and current 2nd deputy
Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, retired
Rector of the University of Professional Studies
Accra (UPSA), Joshua Alabi, former Minister of
Trade and Industry, Ekwow Spio-Garbrah; former
Speaker of Parliament, Edward Doe Adjaho and
former National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS)
CEO, Sylvester Mensah and Minority leader, Haruna
Iddrisu are said to be busily setting up offices
and criss-crossing the country to shore up their
support bases ahead of the crucial NDC congress,
likely coming off next year.

But Kweku Baako maintains that their struggle will
be an exercise in futility should former President
Mahama decides to run.

He indicated that anyone the NDC chooses will
campaign based on the track-record of Mr. Mahama
thus remains the party’s sure bet.

This notwithstanding, the veteran journalist said
the NDC will still lose the 2020 general elections
irrespective of the candidate they bring.

Kweku Baako said, “I will work against the NDC
coming back to power”.
