I’ve NDC membership card but I’ve not been ardent—Prof. Kobby Mensah

Political Marketing Lecturer and Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Tourism Development Company, Prof. Kobby Mensah, has disclosed that he has had a National Democratic Congress (NDC) party card in the past.

“I’ve had a card of NDC in the past, but I haven’t been ardent if I should put it,” he said while speaking on Accra-based Joy FM.

Prof. Kobby Mensah, who was a major critic of the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo-led government as a political marketing expert, disclosed that he has always belonged to the left, although his research has extensively looked at the New Patriotic Party and its campaign strategies over the years.

“I am absolutely to the left. I am left-leaning in terms of my ideology. The conversation about party affiliation is, it depends on how you want to define it.

If you want to define it by ideological leanings, then you would associate me to the NDC because of my ideological beliefs. When you want to define it by membership, somebody would say political membership means that you hold a card; then, of course, that is also another conversation, but I can tell you that I’m absolutely left-leaning,” he told Accra-based Joy FM in an interview.
