Former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Koku Anyidoho, has issued a response to recent comments made by the party’s National Chairman, Johnson Asiedu Nketia.
Mr. Nketia, commonly known as General Mosquito, advised party members to prioritize winning the 2024 elections over discussions about future government positions.
He likened such premature discussions to dividing meat before the hunt concludes.
Asiedu Nketia made these remarks during the official introduction of the party’s running mate for the 2024 elections, Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, to party members at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA).
However, Mr. Anyidoho, a vocal critic of General Mosquito, took to the social media platform X to criticize him.
“Growing up in Burma-Camp in the Heart & Heat of June 4, 1979 Uprising & December 31, 1981 Revolution – birthing PNDC/NDC, it’s a BIG embarrassment to me that after all we went through as a nation, my NDC can be shamelessly talking about “sharing the meat” of Ghana. Disgraceful,” he wrote.

He accused the NDC Chairman of hypocrisy, suggesting that his focus is solely on securing positions for himself and his allies.
Furthermore, another post by Anyidoho questioned the sincerity of the Chairman’s dedication to the party’s objectives, highlighting his emphasis on position-sharing rather than prioritizing Ghana’s welfare.
