Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Alban Kingsford Sumani Bagbin, has launched another scathing attack on Former President John Dramani Mahama accusing him of running an 'animal farm' government.

According to the Nadowli MP, Mr. Mahama abandoned party faithfuls and brought in people who did not work towards the victory of the party to enjoy while the others were left to their fate.

The flag bearer-hopeful of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) who was speaking to a group of party communicators he met at his Job 600 office indicated that he will not abandon the grassroot of the party if elected.

He said; “That is why you had unknown people appearing from nowhere and getting top appointments while people like you [communicators] and other executives who had toiled for the party had been ignored.”

The veteran lawmaker’s comment was in response to queries by the mostly unemployed communicators about what was in it for them, should they support his bid to lead the party into the 2020 general elections since they were sidelined by Mr Mahama, whom they supported ahead of the 2012 polls.

“It is not for nothing that I have said I will make the party the fulcrum of my administration if I am elected flagbearer and eventually win to become the President. I know our people and respect their efforts”, the former Majority and Minority leader told the communicators.

The party communicators who met the flagbearer hopeful instigated the revelations when they questioned why they should support the candidature of Bagbin when he finally files his nomination.

Their point was that they had toiled in the recent past to get former President Mahama into office, but when he became President, they were abandoned.

Most of them said they were jobless and impoverished from neglect from their party for eight years and asked why they should commit to helping any other flagbearer hopeful for the party.

Mr Bagbin, who had already promised a paradigm shift from that of former President Mahama’s style of governance, explained that former President Mahama appointed outsiders into his government because he was not familiar with true party people.
