As a family, opinions and differences will come up, but how we communicate goes a long way to show maturity of the family member. “Please let’s get our facts straight, that is what a true Akatamansonian does”, Mrs. Wilson stated. Concerning invectives which have been thrown at the Dallas branch – the Chairwoman stated that the branch records show that NDC Dallas Texas branch has been in existence since the beginning of the year 2013 and dully registered since December 2012. Concerning publications which have described the Congress in Worcester, Massachusetts in a negative light, the Chairwoman stated that we live in a part of the world where the respect for the law is highly paramount, so in an instance where tension is envisaged inviting peace officers to ensure the security of all is not intimidation. She said, “We are under the microscope, so let’s be mindful of our pronouncements”. Mrs. Janet Akweley Wilson said NDC USA has the fullest support of NDC Dallas and is looking forward to work with every branch of the great NDC party in the USA and elsewhere to achieve a better Ghana for all to enjoy.
