According to him, if Mrs. Rawlings indeed wishes to come back, the NDC must welcome her with open arms.
Mr. Adams, who is a former spokesperson for the Rawlings family, argues that Nana Konadu is a founder of the party therefore he readmission won’t be difficult.
“I don’t think somebody of her stature will have to go through the processes of admitting new members to the party,” he said.
For Mr. Adams, Nana Konadu is “only coming back to her home” if she changes her mind about the NDP.
He believes that “she has paid her dues” to the party in the past and must be recognised for that.
“You accept her because of what they have done and the value you have attached to what she has done,” Mr. Adams said.
He also said accepting her without any conditions won’t be the first time the party has eased rules for a returning member.

“We did it to the Goosie Tanoh’s. We did it to many of the persons who left with him,” Mr. Adams said.
He further urged the NDC not to be swayed by the commentary on Nana Konadu’s possible return to the party.
Daughter of Nana Konadu and Member of Parliament for Korle Klottey, Dr. Zanetor Rawlings made the appeal to the party during the one-year anniversary of the passing of Flt. Lt Jerry John Rawlings.
