The Patron of the Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) Dr Obed Yao Asamoah has denied The Chronicle newspaper’s publication that he has return to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) saying the story is “Foolish, Bogus, Nonsense and has no bases”.
Dr. Obed Asamoah also denied that he had any kind of deliberations with President Mills on a possible return to the NDC at a funeral in Tamale in the Northern region.
The Chronicle on Monday reported that Dr. Obed Asamoah was considering returning to the NDC after the supposed discussions with President Mills.
According to the paper, the DFP is asking for conditions before aligning with the NDC, but Dr. Asamoah told Adom Fm that, the publication is “foolish, bogus, nonsense and has no basis”.
The newspaper also hinted that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) which the DFP supported during the last general elections, had plans to meet the DFP for a possible alliance on the basis of a common ideology, principles and core values that they shared.
However, speaking with Adakabre Frimpong Manso on Adom Fm’s Dwaso Nsem, the Deputy General Secretary of the DFP John Ameka, also denied that the leadership of DFP has ever had talks with NDC on a possible reconciliation.
He stressed that the DFP has never thought of aligning itself with the NDC and would never think about doing that.
John Ameka stressed that the DFP is now gaining weight and will give the two popular parties a run for their money in the next elections.
“We are good contenders why should we have to align with a violent party like the NDC”? Mr. Ameka asked.
He also denied any scheduled meeting with the NPP next week for similar reasons as reported in the publication.
