Allotey Jacobs expelled from NDC

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has expelled its former Central Regional chairman, Allotey Jacobs, for 'misconduct and anti-party behavior'.

Parts of the the statement signed by the Party’s general secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah said, “At our meeting on Wednesday 17 March, the Functional Executive Committee of the NDC considered the report and recommendations of the Disciplinary Committee on the case of misconduct and anti-party behaviour brought against you Mr Allotey Jacobs pursuant to article 48(i) (b) and 8 (b) of the NDC Constitution,”

“The Committee’s report which is herein attached for your attention, found you guilty of the said allegations of misconduct, anti-party conduct and recommended among other things your immediate expulsion from the party,” it added.

“The Functional Executive Committee… has unanimously adopted the report and accepts fully its recommendation for your expulsion from the party.

“You are therefore by the decision of FEC been expelled from the National Democratic Congress and for that matter no more recognised as a member of the party and cannot carry yourself as such.”

Prior to this decision, the NDC earlier suspended the former Central Regional Chairman over what the party described as “persistent anti-party conduct.”
