The former Central Regional Chairman of the NDC has advised his party’s national leadership to instead focus convincing grassroots voters by engaging in house-to-house campaigns. If you go to the line of Moses, Moses’ elder brother was a high priest and his sister was a prophetess. There’s no politician in this country who will deny his family members employment opportunities after helping him to win power,” he explained. The NDC indicated that at least 51 persons related to a few people in government have been appointed into government.
