Citi FM Journalist, Umaru Sanda Fires NDC Supporters For Their Insults – Takes A Swipe At Kevin Taylor
Renowned broadcast Journalist, Umaru Sanda Amadu has fired Supporters of the opposition NDC for their persistent attacks on him.
According to him, if the NDC Supporters had directed the same energy they are using to insult him into their campaign, they would have won enough seats in the 2020 elections, and the margins would have been ‘unriggable’.
Umaru Sanda also took a swipe at US-based Ghanaian Journalist, Kevin Taylor, who he described as a coward with a microphone.
In a Facebook post, Umaru Sanda wrote,
“Dear NDC Supporters,
If you had spent half the energy you’re using to insult me and other journalists on the campaigns of 2020, the party would have won at least, 138 seats with UNRIGABLE MARGINS so that this debate about MAJORITY and MINORITY wouldn’t arise.
By the way, despite all the insults you’ve heaped on me and my ethnic group, my skin is still as smooth as that of my brother, the Fulani NDC MP for Adenta.
I know the block-headed self-acclaimed journalist in unwarranted exile in the US doesn’t know that a Fulani blood is in Parliament on the NDC ticket. But of course, he’s an unintelligent coward with a microphone. That’s dangerous.
My NDC friends, let’s have an intellectual intercourse. You would find it more stimulating than the insults.
3y3 Zu!!!”

NDC Will Soon Be The Majority In Parliament – James Klutse Avedzi
Deputy Minority Leader in Parliament James Klutse Averdzi has stated emphatically that their side will constitute the Majority side of the House in some few months to come.
His comments follow the position of the NPP that they now form the Majority Caucus.
The Speaker Rt. Hon. Alban Bagbin had ruled that the NPP MPs (137 members) together with the Independent MP for Fomena, Mr. Andrew Asiamah Amoako are now the Majority Group.
His ruling came after he read the official letter the Fomena MP wrote informing him of his decision to transact business with the NPP.
Later, the NPP held a press conference claiming to be the Majority Caucus in sharp contrast to what the Speaker had ruled.
The Deputy Leader of the NDC reacting refuted the claims.
According to him, the NPP was attempting to deceive the public and has since asked the media to inform the public on what the ruling was.
Mr. Averdzi added that the NDC was hopeful it will reclaim the Techiman South constituency seat and some other seats to constitute the proper Majority.
He wondered why the NPP was struggling to become the Majority and find comfort with the Independent MP.
