The National Democratic Congress (NDC), has condemned recent comments by a member of its National Communications Team, Dela Edem, concerning former President J.A. Kufuor.
This comes after a viral video surfaced in which Mr. Edem was seen making disparaging remarks about Mr. Kufuor, prompting swift reaction from the party.
In a statement in Accra, the NDC described Mr. Edem’s comments as unsavoury and distasteful.
The statement, signed by the party’s Communications, Director, Sammy Gyamfi, made it clear that the NDC does not condone any disrespect towards senior statesmen, irrespective of their political affiliations.
The party went further to join Mr. Edem in extending an apology to former President Kufuor, recognising the inappropriate nature of the remarks.
They also highlighted the former President’s significant contributions to the progress of Ghana, asserting that such comments did not align with the party’s values or its standards of respectful political engagement.
