Augustus Nana Akwasi and Joseph Yammin<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joseph
\nYammin, a former Ashanti Regional Secretary of the National Democratic Congress
\n(NDC), has reacted angrily to reports that he has created a parallel regional
\nparty office in Kumasi.<\/p>\n

The
\nAshanti Regional NDC Chairman, Augustus Nana Akwasi, has accused Yammin of
\ncreating an additional NDC regional office at Kwadaso, a suburb of Kumasi.<\/p>\n

In
\na recent report, Nana Akwasi is reported to have stated emphatically that he
\n(Nana Akwasi) is the only NDC Ashanti regional chairman so Yammin\u2019s office
\nshould be disregarded by NDC members.<\/p>\n

The
\nissue is said to be creating tension and uneasiness among NDC members in the
\nAshanti Region who fear that the current quandary could deepen cracks in the
\nNDC.<\/p>\n

Yammin Reacts<\/strong><\/p>\n

But
\nin a sharp rebuttal, Joseph Yammin indicated that \u201cwhoever believed the
\nstory that I have created a parallel NDC office and reacted to it in the media
\nis naive and it includes our regional chairman.\u201d<\/p>\n

The
\nNDC stalwart stated that he has no intention of creating an additional NDC
\noffice after losing to Augustus Nana Akwasi during the recent primary in the
\nAshanti Region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe
\noffice in question is my private office and so I am surprised that the NDC
\nchairman is having issues with it. If I have lost elections does that prevent
\nme from creating my own office?\u201d he quizzed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI
\nam surprised that the regional chairman said that we have one-and-only regional
\nchairman in the news report. The writer of that report has confirmed that he
\nspoke to our chairman.<\/p>\n

\u201cAugustus
\nNana Akwasi should rather be happy that some of us who have lost NDC election
\nare even ready to work for the party to win the 2020 presidential election,
\nwhich is just around the corner.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yammin
\nsaid the issue should not create tension in the NDC chairman, reiterating that
\nonly naive people would believe that he (Yammin) has created a parallel Ashanti
\nRegional NDC office.<\/p>\n

He
\nwas of the view that the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) should rather be
\nconcerned about his private office and not the NDC which is his beloved
\npolitical party.<\/p>\n

Yammin, who served as deputy sports minister during the previous Mahama administration, lost to Augustus Nana Akwasi during the Ashanti Regional NDC chairmanship race last year.<\/p>\n
