According to him, the National Chairman’s deep understanding of the party’s structures and decades of service continue to provide invaluable leadership.
“General Mosquito is the spirit of our party today. You like him or not, I would have loved to have the experience of him managing the party for a little bit longer,” he said.
Gbande added that Asiedu Nketiah is probably the most experienced person in the party and has played a significant role in mentoring many of its current members.
“He is probably the most experienced individual in the party today. He’s been there for a long time. All of us who are walking around, we’ve walked through his hands,” he stated.
He also urged party members to refrain from attacking the National Chairman over disagreements, stressing that differences of opinion should be resolved through the NDC’s internal structures rather than public criticism.
