Will this be my last
comment on the NPP? Hell, no!!
By Dr. Michael J.K. Bokor

"The New Patriotic Party (NPP’s) National Executive
Committee (NEC) has unanimously voted to suspend its
National Chairman Paul Afoko indefinitely".
(See
http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/Paul-Afoko-suspended-as-NPP-Chairman-389503).
I read about the rumpus at the NPP's national
headquarters this morning and the press statement
issued by Kwabena Agyepong, General Secretary, and
laughed out loud!!
The very people accusing Afoko of whatever offence
there might be ended up being those who sat at
today's meeting to carry out the "coup d’état"
against him (as Dr. Wereko Brobby has described it).
They happened to be both members of the NEC and
Disciplinary Committee. How inconceivable!!
So, folks, as these empty braggarts turn the dagger
on each other's throat, what else can I do but
observe them and comment on their political
immaturity?
As I keep saying, these NPP people aren't
politicians worth entrusting Ghana's destiny to. In
the first place, they don't know how to do politics
to win the hearts of the electorate. Having
intensified their campaign of lies, intimidation,
and scare-mongering (in terms of violence), they are
only setting the stage for another humiliation at
the polls.
Now that they have confirmed that they cannot unite
for a common purpose, who will go along with them?
Unfortunately, they are deceiving themselves that
the challenges facing the Mahama
administration---which Ghanaians are complaining
about---will translate into votes for them at
Election 2016. Oh, how I pity them!!
And here is the shocking part of everything: "Mr.
Paul Afoko was recently criticized for making public
comments on the party’s finances, a practice against
laid down rules".
So, if Afoko saw malpractices regarding FINANCES,
shouldn't he react? Should he keep quiet for the
looting to go on?
Folks, do you see how these NPP people are? While
their shrimp Akufo-Addo is praising himself as not
being corrupt or is incorruptible, those he has
helped put in charge of the party are stealing the
party's funds, which Akufo-Addo knows of but isn't
acting to tackle.
Afoko won't tolerate that thievery and has bared it
all. Should that be an offence for which he is being
disgraced this way? How will Akufo-Addo do things to
safeguard Ghana's finances if ever he becomes the
President of the country? Close his eyes to
thievery? Some character!!
I shall return…
