My suspension a decoy for PNC executives to dodge accountability for stolen cash – Janet
Regional chairmen, the General Secretary, a member of the council of Elders of the Peoples National Convention (PNC) have asked the Ghanaians to disregard the earlier press statement suggesting that Janet Nabla has been suspended by the party.
A press statement signed by Moses Dani Baah suggested that the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the PNC had agreed to suspend its General Secretary for gross incompetence and insubordination.
The statement indicated that a petition was brought before the disciplinary Committee of the PNC but when Janet Nabla was invited to meet the Disciplinary committee on several occasions but she did not show up.
In a statement reacting to her suspension, the General Secretary together with other signatories have called on the general public to disregard the earlier statement put out by the Chairman of the party.
According to them, ” There was no NEC meeting of PNC on the 28th August, 2021 since the
said NEC meeting fell short of forming a quorum in line with Article 45 (3) of the PNC’s constitution where it requires nine (9) out of sixteen (16) regional chairmen of the party to be present. There were only six (6) regional chairmen present out of the sixteen (16) and the remaining boycotted that said meeting in protest. A clear case of strictly going by
this constitutional requirement was at the NEC meeting of 27th February, 2021 where at the start of the meeting there were eight (8) regional chairmen present. The Ashanti Regional Chairman (Mr. Kabah) who was on his way had to give his consent via a phone call for the meeting to start before his arrival. He did arrive some few minutes after the meeting
started”.
Also, ” It is not true that the General Secretary snubbed the Disciplinary Committee (DC) of the party. The General Secretary was ready to appear before the Disciplinary Committee (DC) to answer the frivolous petition by the Leader, David Apasera and the National Chairman, Moses Dani Baah, and she never snubbed the DC. There are formal communications (letters) between the General Secretary and the DC on clearing some challenges before she appears, only for us to hear of the purported NEC meeting to discuss the report of the DC. Isn’t this witch-hunting and open disregard for the principle of fair hearing?”
Adding that “The reason for the Chairman and the leader to embark on this shameful
quest to get rid of the General Secretary is not farfetched. It is on record that, the hardworking General Secretary has on countless occasions complained about how the Leader and the Chairman misappropriated the party’s funds to the tune of GHC1.7 million during the 2020 elections. Just recently, after the 29th Anniversary celebration of the PNC to raise
funds to pay for party offices rent, an amount of GHC150 000.00 was received and deposited into the party’s account. They have withdrawn the money without the knowledge of the General Secretary to spend. The General Secretary is inviting auditors to forensically audit the party’s accounts; hence they hurriedly embark on this failed journey to discredit her”.
