Koku Anyidoho, the embattled former deputy general secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has said he remains focused in building and continuing the legacy of the late president John Evans Atta-Mills.
Anyidoho was expelled from the Umbrella Family on Tuesday 27 July 2021 for indiscipline.
Reacting to the news, he tweeted: “This too shall surely pass.”

“I continue to remain focused on growing the Atta-Mills Institute, building Asomdwee Park, & flying high the legacy of President Atta-Mills. My bible tells me that, in ALL things, I should give thanks to God Almighty for His grace and mercies. I love Ghana,” Anyidoho tweeted further.

When Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery; they did not know they were selling him into his God-given destiny to become a Prime Minister in Egypt. What evil men mean for wickedness; God turns it around for good. I am a Son of God🙏🙏🙏

Anyidoho also took a swipe at groups pretending to be working to keep the legacy of President Mills alive.
“I am happy that all kinds of pretentious groups are working to keep the legacy of President Atta-Mills alive. By their fruits, we shall know them. Hypocrites and parasites.”
Dismissal
The NDC said the decision to expel Anyidoho comes after the party’s Functional Executive Committee (FEC) considered the report and recommendations of the National Disciplinary Committee on the case of misconduct and anti-party behaviour brought against him.
A letter signed by Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the general secretary of the NDC, said, “The Committee’s report found you guilty of the said allegations of misconduct and anti-party behaviour and recommended your outright expulsion from the party.”
“You are, therefore, by the decision of FEC expelled from the National Democratic Congress and for that matter, you are no more recognised as a member of the Party and cannot carry yourself as such.”
In February this year, the NDC suspended Anyidoho with immediate effect.
This followed the consideration of two separate petitions by party members, Mobarak Abdul Karim and Eric Adjei, against the former presidential communications director.
The petition raised issues about Anyidoho’s conduct, which the party believes breached its constitution.
