@Moro Sandah said:
"You do all just give updates, the people deserve to know. You are doing in terms of communicating, but the communicating wing of the party is weak. They have all taken appointments, leaving the communication end to be very vulnerable. NDC lost I'm 2016 from poor communication to counter the propaganda of NDC. It is as if 2016 is revisited. NDC hmm."
