Newly-elected National Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has reacted to rumours he gave delegates �buta� just to be voted for.
During the National Delegates Congress of the party, there were pictures of �butas� having Kofi Adams� image on it; others also had the image of the newly-elected National Chairman of the party, Kofi Portuphy. http://elections.peacefmonline.com/pages/politics/201412/226544.php
Prior to this, there were rumours that some other aspirants shared cement bags, roofing sheets, etc for delegates to vote for them but little did we know that �butas� were included.
Reacting to this in an interview with Kwami Sefa Kayi on PEACE FM Morning Show �Kokrokoo�, Kofi Adams said he had no idea that something like that was being shared.
�I got to know after the congress,� he said.
Nonetheless, he expressed appreciation to all who shared the �buta� saying �If someone did it on my behalf, I am grateful to them� at least our brothers who are Muslims can use it to pray� but it was not part of our plan even though it was a good initiative. I think it contributed to my victory�
Commenting on his victory, he said the fact that delegates voted massively for him is an indication that they are expecting a lot from him
��my interpretation of the landslide victory is that there is a big task ahead of me; with every other person on board. The results of the election do not mean that someone has done anything wrong� he said.
