I’m now a ‘neutral’ consultant in Ghana politics – Koku Anyidoho
It would be recalled a few months ago that Koku Anyido has described himself as a consultant open to all political parties when it comes to the politics of Ghana.
According to the man who only months ago was aspiring to become NDC General Secretary, he has evolved into a consultant whose utterances cannot be biased.
He speaking on Starr FM with host Francis Abban who asked him if the NPP should be voted out next year. He replied that he is a consultant and people all sorts of political inclinations come to him so he can’t make any definite pronouncement on the question.
“I’m a consultant for various political parties and I am working across all political divide and doing job for various political parties now. And so I won’t say anything that will affect my talk on Saturday. I told you I’m billed for a talk so I need to be mindful of that. I consult for many political parties now”. He said..
Mr Anyidoho appears to be aligned to the Rawlings camp in the NDC and has since assumed a more antagonistic stance against his party, the NDC.
I love Mills; but I worked for Mahama
When prodded with a line of questioning on whether that love translated to John Mahama, Mr. Anyidoho simply implied that his relationship with Mr. Mahama was merely an obligatory working relationship, noting that love was “conditional”.
In an 2017, Koku Anyidoho ignited controversy when he said in an appearance on Accra-based GHOne TV’s current affairs programme, State of Affairs that he loved Mills but he only worked for Mahama.
“I will never regret working for him… President Mills, I salute you in your grave. Nobody will take that away from me,” he declared.
He stated that, he loved the NDC as a party and that “leadership will rotate” adding that “I loved President Mills; I worked for President Mahama.”
