Yammin calls for a new resolve and united front for the NDC

The Ashanti regional Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has issued a stern warning to any group of people within the party who would want to put impediments in the way of the President, John Dramani Mahama in the discharge of his duties and as flag bearer of the party in the forthcoming elections.
“We will not sit down for any group of people to further deepen the crisis within our party to the detriment of the Mahama agenda”.
Joseph Yammin was speaking to Focus news in the aftermath of comments passed by former President Jerry John Rawlings on the BBC which was not received well by a section of Ghanaians.
He says though his “statements may be in bad taste, we are not looking for anymore divisions but unity as Prof. John Mills would have wanted”.
“We should work hard to make Mills smile in his grave”, and that means we have to unite and do all what is necessary to ensure H.E John Dramani Mahama wins the next elections and retain his seat as President of Ghana.
He encouraged the former first lady and the entire Mills family to remain strong in this hard time, knowing that the president lived his convictions and did what he found to be right until the end of his time.
