An aide to Dr. Ekwow Spio Gabrah, Alhaji Mohammed Nasiru has disclosed that Dr Spio Garbrah will be meeting former President Jerry John Rawlings on Tuesday afternoon to formerly inform him of his decision to contest for the position of flagbearer in the upcoming National delegates Congress in July to be held in Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo Region.<\/p>\n
In an exclusive interview with the news desk of X-FM, Ahaji Nasiru further stated the meeting will also be used by Dr. Spio-Garbrah to announce his arrival into the country as well as give other details about the formal launch of his campaign and other matters arising.<\/p>\n
Dr. Garbrah, a leading member of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) stunned party followers and political pundits when he declared his intention to contest the flagbearship slot of the NDC which hitherto was a close fight between former first lady Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings and incumbent President John Mills by announcing his resignation as a vice chairman of the party.<\/p>\n
Most party followers especially from Mrs. Rawlings\u2019 camp believe Dr. Garbrah\u2019s participation will be a blow to the former first lady\u2019s bid since he has been seen in political arena as an associate of the former first family.<\/p>\n
But others also believe, it is to introduce himself and announce to potential delegates about his desire to contest for the leadership position of the party in 2016, and might probably resign at the final stages of the delegates\u2019 congress at Sunyani.<\/p>\n
This will be the second time the former Minister of Communications and C.E.O. of Commonwealth Telecommunications Organization (CTO) based in London will be vying for the leadership slot of the NDC after an abysmal performance against the then Candidate Mills in 2006.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
