Politics of Wednesday, 20 November 2019Source: citinewsroom.comRas Mubarak apologizes for defying NDC’s position on referendumMember of Parliament for Kumbungu, Ras MubarakThe Member of Parliament for Kumbungu, Ras Mubarak has rendered an unqualified apology to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for opposing the party’s position for a ‘NO’ vote in the upcoming referendum. The referendum is to decide on the proposed amendment of Article 55 (3) 1992 constitution that will enable political parties to sponsor the candidates for local level elections. President Akufo-Addo has in the past used his platform to urge Ghanaians to vote YES in the referendum. The Commission called on the public to discard some “misinformation” in the media alleging that the upcoming December 17 national referendum is to elect Metropolitan Municipal District Chief Executives. I was invited to a meeting at the party national headquarters to discuss my media interviews on the above-mentioned issue.
