The Deputy General Secretary of the ruling (NDC), Mustapha Foyo Gbande, has spoken on the controversy surrounding the appointment of a former aide to former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
Speaking on the issue which has since sparked backlash from certain NDC members against the government, Gbande stated that, if he had been given the mandate, he would have reassigned her to a different role rather than appointing her to the presidency.
He, however, indicated that he, like everyone else, respects the president's decision and vision, adding that he offers his full support for the appointment.
He made this known after he was asked whether Rosemond Obeng should be removed from office to appease aggrieved members, during an interview on Channel One TV on Wednesday, July 9, 2025. "If I have the opportunity, I will reassign her to a different place.
