RE: DON’T BE ANY PARTY’S WORLD BANK – RAWLINGS TELLS VOLTARIANS
Dear Sir,
Our attention has been drawn to a publication in the November 1, 2012 edition of ‘The New Crusading Guide’ as captioned above.
We wish to state that it is not true that President Rawlings in his statement at the Nugoryiza festival of the people of Penyi in the Ketu North District cautioned them to avoid being the World Bank of any party.
It is also not true that he said there was no sincerity in the NDC government because it had wasted four years in office.
There is no doubt that President Rawlings does not hesitate to criticise matters of national and political importance, but we cannot accept a situation where some media people mischievously attribute statements to him. It is unethical.
We wonder if the author of the report was at the Nugoryiza festival, because President Rawlings read a short prepared script before speaking extempore for about ten minutes on the sacrifices some footsoldiers had made for their community and society.
This office has a copy of the unedited video coverage of the event and we will be glad to furnish you with a copy if required.
We will be grateful if you can correct as a matter of urgency the complete misrepresentation of facts by your reporter.
Thank you.
....Signed....
