The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said it finds, what it termed " divisive tribal campaign" waged by the First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings, Ms Faustina Nelson and the Palaver newspaper against its flag bearer,

Mr John Agyekum Kuffour very disquieting It said, "Mr J. A Kuffour has never on any occasion, made any disparaging remarks against the Vice-President in particular or Fantes in general".

This was contained in a news release issued in Accra and signed by the NPP General Secretary, Mr Dan Botwe. It said it was the NPP's view that the discerning people of the Central Region know that the current campaign, against its flag bearer is orchestrated to stem the popular support Mr Kuffour is enjoying from the region.

"The NPP, therefore, advises the NDC to cease this dangerous tribal campaign immediately as it will eventually undermine the unity and peace of Ghana".
