The division within the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) deepens as disqualified presidential aspirant Philip Appiah Kubi, also known as Roman Fada, rejects the party’s endorsement of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) ahead of the upcoming election. Speaking to Citi News, Kubi alleged that the party’s Deputy General Secretary, Jerry Addo, announced the endorsement without seeking the approval of the entire party.
He also described the endorsement as fake. “Not that we have issues with either NDC or NPP, but as the leader of Ghana Freedom Party currently, with my general secretary, my four Parliamentary Candidates and the other executive members, we have not endorsed any political party.”
Speaking to the press on December 4, Addo stated that the decision to endorse the NDC was based on its strong policies. He highlighted the party’s support for the NDC’s commitment to establishing a Women’s Development Bank and providing free tuition for first-year tertiary students.
