After nearly three years of denial, the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), has finally admitted that the party indeed owns the ultramodern office complex at Adabraka in Accra.
National Organiser of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), Yaw Boateng Gyan made the confession last Tuesday on Accra-based Asempa FM.
This was after several denials by the leadership of the party concerning the ownership of the building. When the issue about the building was first made public, the party's Deputy National Organiser, Joshua Akamba, was among the first people to deny the story.
"The NDC has not acquired any new building, neither are we putting up any ultra-modem office building," was his exact rebuttal on Adom FM's 'Dwaso Nsem' programme in December 2011.

Fastforward to 2014, on the late afternoon political talk show programme hosted by the National Organiser of the NDC, who is seeking re-election, touted the construction of the building as part of his achievements for which he needed to be retained.

"Today, as I talk to you, I am just coming from our new office; we will soon commission the building and when people come and see it, they will realise the work we have done," he posited.
He justified the construction of the building saying they could not continue to rent office spaces for the NDC.
Aside that, he said they could not compare their office to those of their colleague political parties outside the country, claiming theirs looked like a hen coop.
"When we became national executives, we made our minds that by the time we leave office or by the end of our term of office or even when we decide not to contest anymore or we will not contest for any position, we would have gotten a place we could pride ourselves with that this is our party headquarters," he said on Accra-based Asernpa FM yesterday.
NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, aka General Mosquito, had earlier told delegates in Sunyani, the Brong-Ahafo Regional capital, that , the party was building an ultra-modem headquarters in Accra which was nearing completion, even though he did not mention the exact location of the facility'.
