Hon. Nii Amassah Namoale has hit back at ex-president Rawlings for being a constant critic and a thorn in the flesh of the National Democratic Congress.

The former Member of Parliament for La Dadekotopon Constituency blamed the Founder of the NDC for playing a major role in making his own party unpopular in the eyes of voters.

According Hon. Namoale, the rampant criticism the NDC received from their own founder contributed to the heavy defeat they suffered in the 2016 general election.

Speaking on ATV’s Asem Yi Di Ka, Hon. Namoale mentioned that the late former President John Evans Attah Mills was the first culprit to taste the conundrum of ex-president Rawlings during his tenure.
