Ziedeng outlined the outcome of the National Executive Committee meeting.Under the arrangement, the DFP, Mr Ziedeng said, will be allocated two National Executive Committee positions at the national level, one Regional Executive Committee position and one constituency executive position.That arrangement, according to him, will enable the DFP to properly integrate into the NDC.He said there was a confluence between the philosophies of the DFP and the NDC and the differences in opinion the drove the DFP to split away have been narrowed.Mr Ziedeng, who was a Deputy General Secretary of the NDC before the DFP broke away, said the merger was at the instance of president Mills.
