The National Executive Committee [NEC] of the People’s National Convention [PNC] has appointed Jacob Amoako as acting General Secretary of the Party.
Jacob Amoako will replace Atik Mohammed who was suspended indefinitely by the NEC Â for gross "misbehavior and misconduct" last week.
Â
Mr. Mohammed was suspended after he criticized the party’s 2016 presidential candidate Dr. Edward Mahama, for accepting an ambassadorial appointment from President Nana Akufo-Addo.
He is also accused of bringing the image of the party into disrepute and repeatedly throwing invectives at Dr. Edward Mahama during NEC meetings.
Â
PNC Communications Director Emmanuel Wilson confirmed the suspension of Atik Mohammed in a statement which said he does not have the mandate to henceforth represent the party in any capacity.
Â
But Atik Mohammed has maintained he has not been suspended and that no organ in the party, except congress, possesses such authority to suspend him.
