The Ashanti Regional Communications officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Abdul Samed Akalilu is authoring a book to reveal secrets about the party’s embarrassing defeat in the 2016 polls.
Mr. Akalilu who was the regional spokesperson for the 2016 elections is accused of pocketing monies and other souvenirs meant for grass root supporters of the party.
Former Deputy Ashanti Regional and regional campaign coordinator, Hon. Andy Ocran was also accused of losing touch with senior members of the party in the region, hence their overwhelmingly defeat.
As a result, some disgruntled members of party locked up the party regional office immediately after the New Patriotic Party (NPP) took office from NDC to show their displeasure at their leadership.
However, the former spokesperson and communications director has revealed he will soon outdoor a book on reasons that caused the party’s defeat.
The book with its full content, mynewsgh.com understands, has been given to Prof. Kwesi Botchwey’s committee which is tasked to investigate the party’s pitiable lost at the polls.
The title of the book is however unclear.
When published, it will be the second time a party under this Fourth Republic is publishing a book after elections.
Dr. Kobina Arthur Kennedy of New Patriotic Party (NPP) published one after party lost power in 2008 with a title: “Chasing the Elephant into the Bush.”????

"Throwing the umbrella to the wind"
The first book on election under the fourth republic was written by the NPP in 1992/93 by a committee chaired by the then MP aspirant and now the President of the republic, His Excellency Prescient Akuffo-Addo. The title was 'THE STOLEN VIRDICT' which, among other things, sought to enumerate the various ways the NDC used to rig the 1992 Presidential and parliamentary elections. The NDC and rigging and loooting are bed mates
'When published, it will be the second time a party under this Fourth Republic is publishing a book after elections.' This is a factual error. The first book was written by Professor Albert Adu-Boahen after the 1992 elections.
