NDC Angry with Mills

The paper flashes a banner headline which reads "NDC Angry with Mills". According to the paper, a few NDC supporters are not happy with what they termed the "transparent handling of the stadia probe report" by Vice President John Evans Atta Mills.

Some NDC elements see the institution of the probe by the Veep as an attempt to score political points, and they refer to the way and manner in which he received the report and quickly gave it to the media.

The paper stated that, some NDC members felt the veep should have just collected the Report and allowed the government to issue a statement on its views.

The NDC members were pleased with the Tagoe report in view of the time and pressure involved but conceded that certain vital issues were not addressed. One of them, was the way the committee was silent on the contradictory nature of how the consultancy contract was taken from the Architectural and Engineering Services Limited (AESL).
