NDC’s new rule aims to strengthen party while government focuses on economy – Tanko Rashid

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has justified its new directive requiring full-time government appointees to resign at least six months before contesting party executive positions, saying the decision was made to strengthen the party while allowing the government to focus on fixing the struggling economy.
