A member of the communications team of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Gabriella Tetteh, has proposed that future flagbearer aspirants of the party publicly outline how they intend to distribute government appointments if elected.
Her suggestion follows concerns among some party supporters who say loyal members who worked to bring the party to power have not been adequately recognised in government appointments.
In a post shared on social media, Ms Tetteh suggested that aspiring presidential candidates within the party should clearly state the proportion of appointments they would allocate to party members, the general public, friends and family, as well as individuals from other political parties.
According to her, such a formula would help party members determine how much time, energy and resources they should invest in supporting the political ambitions of aspirants.
Her comments come amid ongoing discussions within sections of the party about the distribution of opportunities and support under the current administration.
Some supporters of the party have recently criticised the government for what they describe as support for individuals or groups perceived to have been unsupportive of the party’s 2024 electoral campaign.
One example cited by critics is the government’s involvement in the “Women of Valour” event organised by media personality Nana Aba Anamoah in the United Kingdom on March 7, 2026.
Those raising concerns argue that greater recognition should be given to individuals and groups who actively contributed to the party’s electoral victory.
Ms Tetteh’s remarks have since generated discussion among party supporters about internal party loyalty, inclusiveness and expectations regarding appointments in government.
