According to sources, Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the national chairman of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), is upset about President John Dramani Mahama's selection of ministers and chief executive officers, suggesting trouble is imminent in the party. According to the Chronicle's unquestionable sources inside the ruling party's Functional Executive Committee (FEC), Mr. Asiedu Nketiah, also known as General Mosquito, is upset that President John Dramani Mahama and the party's appointment committee have marginalized him because his preferred candidates for government appointments appear to have been turned down.
Information leaked into The Chronicle office claims that President Mahama rejected Johnson Asiedu Nketiah's list of preferred appointees. As executives from all constituencies continue to pour into the office of the outgoing National chairman to voice their displeasure of the President's nominees, The Chronicle has learned that the issue has created tension inside the party. Another FEC source told The Chronicle that General Mosquito had earlier lodged a formal complaint against the president with party elders.


In light of these events, the party's Council of Elders, which includes the Speaker of Parliament, has apparently called an emergency meeting to discuss the Chairman's concerns and identify the brains behind the purposeful effort to exclude the National Chairman from the selection of ministers and CEOs in President Mahama's administration. In order to prevent more rifts within the party, worried party members demanded that the President and the Chairman quickly resolve their growing disagreements. They asserted that by traveling to practically every town in the nation to solicit votes for the party to win power, Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah surely played a big part in the 2024 electioneering campaign.
