The loyalty of Obed Asamoah, Life Patron of the Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) to the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has been questioned by a member of his party. According to the Volta Regional Youth Organiser of the DFP, Wisdom Deafemekpor, the party as a whole has not agreed to join the ruling NDC because no one was consulted before Obed Asamoah switched camp. He said “As far as I am concerned, no congress, meeting or negotiation was made by the DFP before Obed defected to the NDC.” He added that Obed’s move to the NDC does not represent the stance of the entire DFP party since it is rather “Obed’s personal decision.” He also warned the NDC to be cautious about its “prodigal son,” noting, “this prodigal son has not changed one bit” but is a wolf in sheep clothing.” Wisdom Deafemekpor alleged that “Obed Asamoah’s defection is a curse to the NDC because it is part of a calculated attempt to throw the NDC into opposition.” According to him, the life patron of the DFP, who has openly pledged his allegiance to the NDC, should be carefully watched because he has been in bed with the opposition National Patriotic Party (NPP) for a long time and therefore his defection is a recipe for doom in the NDC. “During the 2008 run off, Obed personally called me, the regional youth organiser to ask all constituency organisers to work, vote and align ourselves to the NPP, which we did. I challenge him to deny that this is not true.” Mr. Deafemepkor indicated. “Obed said he had been given money by the NPP so that we work for them. All the money we used to fuel our vehicles during the runoff was from the NPP and that is what Obed himself told me.” The fuming youth organiser could not fathom why Obed suddenly decided to join the NDC, adding, “If the NPP had won then, would he go back to the NDC in opposition?” He added that Obed is just an opportunist and chameleon who will stop at nothing to satisfy his greedy desires and lust for money and power. The DFP organiser, who was a cadre during the revolution and a staunch member of the NDC before he defected to the DFP said, “I am not surprised that less than a week after Obed openly defected to the NDC, there have been total confusion and anarchy in the party. “Asamoah is only using the DFP as a party to make money, which he made from the NPP in 2008 and now wants to make from the NDC in the run up to next year’s elections.” Mr. Deafemekpor advised the NDC to boot Obed out before he destroys them and brings them back to opposition.
