Former General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress [NDC], Koku Anyidoho has said his party will remain in opposition if unity is not ensured within the party by the new national executives.

According to him, one of the main problems that led to their embarrassing defeat in the 2016 elections was because they had a “disunited” front.

“Even the Kwesi Botchwey report stated that clearly. So many things went on that shouldn’t be,” he said.

Koku who lost to his Chief Scribe at the party’s national executive election last year said he is ready to assist Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketiah to work towards 2020 victory.

“I really want the NDC to come to power. And we can only do this if we are united and resolve all differences. Sometimes people think I have issues with the General [Asiedu Nketiah], there is no problem whatsoever between us. I am ready to work with him so we gain power in 2020,” he said in an interview with Asempa FM’s 'Ekosii Sen' programme Wednesday, February 13, 2019.
