'Violent thug' Akufo-Addo won't be president - Twum Boafo

Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Free Zones Board, Kwadwo Twum-Boafo has described the flag-bearer of the New Patriotic Party NPP, Nana Addo Dankwa-Akuffo Addo as a violent thug, who wants to be president of this country at all cost.

“I will say it again that this country is on a precipice, that we have a violent thug, who wants to be president of this country at all cost. We have a man who absolutely has no campaign message, who is now begging to be voted for," he said.

Contributing to a panel discussion on Radio Gold's "Alhaji and Alhaji" programme, a fuming Twum-Boafo said, “Ghanaians should never make up their mind to vote for an unforgiving individual, causing all the mess in the country just for his personal interest to become the president of this land.”

Whiles advising Ghanaians to be very vigilant when dealing with members of the NPP and its flag bearer, he also urged them to listen to Paul Afoko, NPP’S suspended Chairman, who to him, is "clearly telling us the facts about who Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo".

“I have faith in the Ghanaian people that they would never vote into power such a man who has on three (3) occasions within his own party and twice from the Ghanaian people lost elections due to his lack of respect...." he said.

He added that “this act by Citizens really demonstrate how they would not allow any tyranny to befall them, showing how good they are in learning history. Therefore, we would not allow anybody to intimidate us for power".

“…so for those of you who always get up and say, that people like Kwadwo Boafo are always on the case of the NPP flagbearer...should do their homework well” he asserted.

“me I'm not afraid of anybody, you can only kill me once… can you kill everybody and when you finish are you going to rule over the cockroaches?” he rhetorically quizzed.
