According to rumors, over 1,000 members of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) in the Upper West Region have defected to the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The former PPP Chairman for Wa Central is the lone individual who has joined the NDC, according to the party’s leadership.
After the party’s performance in the 2020 elections, the party fired him.
Director of Communications for the PPP Felix Mantey expressed surprise at the allegations in an interview with Citi News.
“Where are the 1,000 people coming from?” he questioned.
Mr. Mantey said the chairman doesn’t even know the total number of votes in the 2020 general elections.
“He even concocted lies about me that I, as a communication director, went to Wa East to ask the NDC people to accept me… he concocted so many lies.”
“We don’t have problems with defections to the NDC, but don’t make it like the entire membership of the PPP has joined the NDC, which is a palpable lie,” Mr. Mantey added.
