The tension that is simmering between two stalwarts of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) former Central Regional Chairman, Bernard Allotey Jacobs and General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, is likely to boil over in the coming days.
This was after the former launched a scathing verbal attack on the latter describing him as "indisciplined" and a "hypocritical person".
A few weeks ago, the immediate-past NDC Central Regional Chairman called on Asiedu Nketia to rescind his decision to run again as the General Secretary of the party, and called on delagates to vote out the the latter because he has outlived his usefulness to the NDC.
He further alleged that there is ‘mafia’ at the NDC headquarters being led by Asiedu Nketiah, affectionately called General Mosquito, which was hampering the progress of the party.
General Mosquito’s position has come under threat since his deputy Koku Anyidoho picked nomination forms to challenge him.
Asiedu Nketia on the otherhand says he is not perturbed by the ‘vile propaganda’ to get him out of the party office and that he has the shock absorbers to neutralise any missiles aimed at ensuring he loses the party’s upcoming primaries slated for November 2018.
Contributing to a panel discussion on Peace FM's morning show ‘Kokrokoo’, Wednesday, Allotey Jacobs nearly went ballistic but for the timely intervetion of the host, Kwami Sefa Kayi.
“Asiedu Nketiah is very arrogant. He’s indisciplined…He is a hypocritical person…,” he fumed but the host stepped in to prevent the "Educated Fisherman" from attacking the personality of the NDC Chief Scribe.

Sayoooooooooo mmoa no reko ooooooooo.
there is no tension. allotey is just selfish
Sayooooooooooooooooooooooooo...... This corrupt NDC party will soon disintegrate.
This accusation does not hold water. The question of someone being arrogant us relative. What you see as arrogance may be seen as humility to another, so you can't use your perception of someone to be the basis for him to be voted out. Who is more arrogant than koku anyidoho? Koku is visibly reckless all the time. But for koku's restlessness NYC supporters would have had a successful demonstration against the US GHANA military deal. His childishness caused his arrest. I don't think ndc will be successful with koku as general secretary. I think allotey is trying to settle personal scores with asiedu nketsiah.
Allotey only wants to please Kwame Sefa Kayi and remain relevant on Peace fm. I must commend Fred Agbenyo for always being firm on that program despite the machinations by Kwame Sefa Kayi
Heeeeeeeeeerla
But Alotey, Asiedu Nketiah is the epitome of all that the NDC portrays in Ghana politics-arrogance, indiscipline, insulting behaviour, tribalism, nepotism, and above all deep-seated corruption.
The Chicken is coming home to roast. What did you and Kkoku Ayidayo did to bring the sick Atta Mills to power? No wonder Koku was un official Chief of Staff for Mills. He was appointing and firing. Koku became so powerful the IGP was even afraid of him. The then vice president Mahama was extremely angry at that time. This is the reason Mahama dont see eye to eye with Koku. God please do not bring this group ever again on GHANA. Ekow, Cape Coast
Ghana politics. its all about personal attacks
