Ashanti’s Angry Over

Kufuor Being Set Up

By The Akyem Cabal In NPP

As The Akyem Click-Pushed Kufuor To Insult Dr. Afari-Gyan

”It is said that if one lies that his dead mother is asleep, it will still be found out when the body starts decomposing”.

This is the situation in which, the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) finds itself.

It has been vehemently denied that there are no problems between the Ashanti and the Akyem factions in the NPP. However, the latest incident which has ignited the Akyem-Ashanti tension, is when the Akyem group in the NPP prevailed on ex-President John Agyekum Kufuor, to insult the Electoral Commission (EC) boss, Dr. Kwadwo Afari-Gyan, and to embark on warmongering, that, Ghana could be on a time bomb.

Ex-president Kufuor puts aside his senses of objectivity and modesty, and said that the decision of Dr. Afari-Gyan to create the 45 new constituencies does not make sense.

After making him (Kufuor) embarrass himself, the Akyem sect in the NPP further decided to contest elections in the 45 newly-created constituencies whiles pursuing the court cases.

Credible reports reaching The Informer indicate that ex-President John Agyekum Kufuor has been very angry at being made a fool by the young Akyem boys, as he told a confidant that “he will teach Akufo-Addo and his Akyem group sense, before the elections”.

Below is a story that The Informer carried, concerning how Akufo-Addo and his Akyem group disregarded the Ashanti’s dislike for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

Ashanti NPP Supporters

Angry With Akufo-Addo

Intelligence Desk Report

Many New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters in the Ashanti Region are disillusioned, as regards the lack of respect shown towards them by their flagbearer, Mr. Williams Addo-Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

Intelligence picked up by The Informer, indicates that the aggrieved supporters hold the view, that in the selection of Akufo-Addo’s running mate, the leading members of the NPP in the Ashanti Region, submitted, as their first choice, the Lepowura, Alhaji Mohamed Nuhu Dini Jawula, instead of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

They contend that, Akufo-Addo chose Dr. Bawumia because the Akyem cabal, made up of Ken Ofori-Atta, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko and others, had wanted their preferred choice, Dr. Bawumia, to be selected, so they can manipulate him.

The Informer also picks up signals that the foul-mouthed opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin North constituency, Hon. Kennedy Akompreko Ohene Agyapong’s statement that Ashantis should beat up Ewes and Ga –Dangmes in the Ashanti Region, was part of Akufo-Addo’s tribal politics’ agenda against the Ashanti Region.

According to them, that explains why Akufo-Addo never criticized Kennedy Agyapong, for his war-mongering and tribal statement.

These pained NPP supporters, have also hinted that, many of the delegates in Ashanti Region were Akyems, and that was why they ended up voting massively for Akufo-Addo to become the flagbearer, as against the region’s choice, John Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen, who lost miserably in the Ashanti Region.
