Ivor Greenstreet’s victory in the Convention People’s Party’s (CPP) congress in January was sponsored by the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), failed aspirant Samia Nkrumah has alleged.
“…The influence of the NDC was there for all to see. Absolutely, they were in full charge. The monies came from them, it’s no secret. Everybody knows…the monies that came to our delegates did not come from the CPP’s coffers or from an individual…,” Ms Nkrumah told Ekow Mensah-Shalders on Class91.3fm’s Executive Breakfast Show on Thursday March 10.
The former CPP chair’s ambition to lead the party her father founded as flagbearer for the 2016 polls was crushed as Mr Greenstreet got the nod from delegates after polling 1,288 votes – 64.2%, ahead of Samia’s total of 579, representing about 28.9%.
Shortly after the results, Ms Nkrumah granted an interview to the media and accused delegates of being influenced by money.
Her actions were condemned by the national chairman of the party, Professor Edmund Delle, who expressed disappointment over the comments, and entreated her to offer an apology to Mr Greenstreet and the party as her behaviour risked affecting the fortunes of the party negatively.
Jesus Christ Save life and God love you.
