National Democratic Congress (NDC) stalwart, Anita Desoso, has refuted claims that she has been sidelined or abandoned by the current government, clarifying that she currently serves on the Board of the National Population Council.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen, following the passing of former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, Madam Desoso assured party supporters and well-wishers that she remains an active contributor to national development.
“I have not been sidelined or abandoned. When we talk about appointments, I have been given one, but I cannot come and make noise about it,” she explained.
The former NDC National Women’s Organizer said some members might have misinterpreted her low public profile as neglect, but she took time off after the 2024 elections to rest. “After the election, some of us needed to rest because I am growing old,” she noted.
Touching on the death of Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, Madam Desoso described the loss as deeply painful, acknowledging the immense role the late former First Lady and her husband, Jerry John Rawlings, played in shaping her political journey.
“Besides God, it is her and her husband who helped make me somebody,” she said emotionally.
Her comments come amid renewed conversations about recognition and inclusivity within the NDC.
Madam Desoso’s assurance, however, signals her continued loyalty and contribution to the party and national governance.
