<\/a><\/div>\nEditor-in-chief of the Crusading Guide newspaper says there was an error of judgment on the part of the renowned politician Dr Edward Nasigre Mahama relative to the position taken by the People\u2019s Nation Convention (PNC).<\/p>\n
Kweku Baako disagreed with the five-time presidential candidates\u2019 comment about some key persons in the party knowing about his appointment after party\u2019s National Chairman, Bernard Mornah, and General Secretary, Atik Mohammed complained about not being aware.<\/p>\n
Contributing to a discussion on the issue on Joy FM\/MultiTV\u2019s news analysis programme Newsfile, Saturday, he questioned if the Mr Mornah and Atik Mohammed are not key persons in the party structure.<\/p>\n
He argued that\u00a0Mr Mahama had nothing to lose \u201cif he had dropped hints to the two and the thing doesn\u2019t happen, he won\u2019t be embarrassed since everything is on the quiet.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWaiting to be confirmed before calling for a Standing Committee meeting with the party, does not show good leadership.<\/p>\n
The 2016 PNC presidential candidate\u00a0is set to call a party meeting to officially inform them of his appointment by President Akufo-Addo\u2019s to serve in the New Patriotic Party (NPP)\u00a0government as an Ambassador-At-Large.<\/p>\n
Dr Mahama told Joy News\u2019 Joseph Ackah-Blay in an interview on Tuesday that he will seek to convince his party that accepting a job from another political party is not the same as betraying his party or its ideology.<\/p>\n
The PNC leader is facing internal opposition from party\u2019s Mr Mornah and Mr Atik Mohammed, over the job which they say puts their leader in NPP\u2019s pockets.<\/p>\n

Five-time presidential candidate, Edward Nasigre Mahama<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cI am not NPP ambassador or PNC ambassador, I am an ambassador for Ghana. My ideology is not PNC my ideology is Ghana\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not joining NPP I am still PNC. In fact, I am the leader of PNC,\u201d\u00a0he said stressing\u00a0his post does not mean he is selling out the PNC, but rather selling Ghana to the world.<\/p>\n
But Mr Baako said he was surprised by the reaction of the two executives towards embarrassing him.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would be surprised if the party takes an extreme action [of expelling him]. They need to call a standing Committee meeting and tell him he is wrong in regarding his action,\u201d Mr Baako said.<\/p>\n
According to him,\u00a0the\u00a0appointment is commendable,\u00a0disagreeing with the ideological difference argument between the NPP and PNC by dissidents.<\/p>\n
Mr Baako explained that there is not any marked ideological difference in the various political parties when it comes to the country\u2019s foreign policy, which has been followed since Dr Nkrumah\u2019s time.<\/p>\n
He also thinks it would be honourable for Mr Mahama to voluntarily step down as leader of the party since he will have the time and space to be doing active politics.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, media practitioner and law lecturer, Yaw Oppong said there was no point in him consulting anyone before accepting the appointment.<\/p>\n
He said the President crossing the bridge to invite someone should be welcomed by the PNC rather than being chastised.<\/p>\n
All the parties\u2019 policies are the same so the position of the PNC\u2019s approach is not the best.<\/p>\n
