If Rawlings Couldn’t Stop Konadu from Leaving NDC, Who Else Can Bring Her Back? – Ben Ephson Wonders

Pollster Ben Ephson has noted that no present member of the National Demcoratic Congress (NDC) can extend an invitation to the former First Lady, Konadu Agyemang Rawlings as she left on her own accord.

His comment comes after Dr Zanetor Agyeman Rawlings called on the leadership of the party to do the needful to bring her mother back to the NDC, adding that she was an integral part of it.

However, Ben Ephson believes the onus lies on Mrs Rawlings to return to the party since she left on her own and her husband who was the founder couldn’t stop her.

“It’s unfortunate this has come at a time we’re commemorating the old man’s first anniversary. But I think that Nana Konadu walked out of the party on her own volition and if the late president couldn’t stop her, who else can bring her back. She walked out on her own and if she decides to walk back into the party I don’t think that anybody will stop her. So rather she should have a tête-à-tête with her mother and ask the mother to eat a humble pie and come back”, the pollster advised.

“Is there anybody more important in the NDC or the Rawlingses life than the late president? I’m sure the president would have tried to stop her and she defied the former president and went ahead. Posterity has shown that she was wrong in leaving. I think that maybe she tried to equate her popularity with that of the late president. Yes she’s hardworking, she helped the NDC in the formative years and so on but she and the former president were poles apart in terms of popularity and strength within the party”, Ben Ephson added.
