NPP man Busted

…as he hides on Civil Service Council, instigates CLOGSA demonstrations

…he is a polling station chairman in Okaikoi constituency

Intelligence Daily Post has picked up indicates that the Civil & Local

Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) demonstrations that have rocked

the country the past couple of days were NPP-instigated.

Signals pursued by this paper led it to one Richard Bampoe-Addo, who is

representing the Civil Servants Association (CSA) on the Civil Service Council

as the man at the heart of the planning and organization of the demonstrations.

Daily Post, for strategic reasons, prefers to keep certain vital information

regarding the instigation of these demonstrations under wraps for the moment.

However, what the paper can reveal at this time is that, per the rules and

regulations governing the conduct of Civil Servants, Richard Bampoe-Addo’s

membership of the Civil Service Council is illegal.

A protégé of Nana Akomea, NPP MP for Okaikoi South Constituency, Bampoe-Addo is

the Chairman of the Kaneshie One and Four Primary Schools polling stations in

the Kaneshie-Awudome Electoral Area in Accra.

Clearly, he has identified himself with a political party and participated

actively in its activities. Daily Post intelligence can say with all the

authority at its disposal that he was active for the NPP in the 2008 elections

which the party lost to the NDC.

Clearly, Richard Bampoe-Addo, in this light, cannot be a member of the Civil

Service Council. His removal, as a result, must be immediate. Neither can he be

a member of the Civil Servants Associations as the 1992 constitution forbids

Civil Servants from engaging in active party politics or being members of any

political party.
