Allotey Jacobs: I no longer belong to NDC; I support Akufo-Addo, Bawumia
Former Central Regional Chairman of the opposition
National Democratic Congress (NDC), Bernard
Allotey Jacobs has declared that he no longer
belongs to the NDC.
To him if the NDC says it has suspended him, he
has also “dismissed” himself from the party.



He said he now supports President Nana Addo Dankwa
Akufo-Addo and his Vice President Dr Mahamudu
Bawumia, even though he is not a member of their
political party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), he
believes they were putting Ghana on the right
track.

Mr Allotey Jacobs said this when he appeared on
Accra based Peace FM’s Kookrokoo radio programme
Wednesday morning [March 10, 2021], monitored by
Graphic Online.

He told the host of the programme, Kwami Sefa Kayi
that he wanted to make it clear that, "that is why
I have declared to support him [Akufo-Addo and his
Vice President... I no longer belong to the NDC. I
am not an NPP member, I'll never be an NPP
member."

When he was prompted by the the host, Kwami Sefa
Kayi that the NDC has already suspended him, he
responded that if they have suspended him, he has
also resolved to "dismiss" himself from the party
[NDC].



He indicated that his admission or entry into the
NDC party was not "official" and so his exit
cannot also be "official," he said in reaction to
Sefa Kayi's query whether he had officially
informed the party about his declaration to exit.

Mr Allotey Jacobs was suspended from the NDC in
2020 for what the party described as his
persistent anti-party conduct.
