Nana Obiri Boahen
The Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Obiri Boahen has cautioned members of the party from engaging in acts that could push the current government out of power, MyNewsGh.com reports.
He has said members of the party would continue to benefit from merely been associated with it as long as it stays in government.
He was commenting on recent unpalatable developments in the ruling party in some constituencies across the country, in an interview with Okay FM monitored by MyNewsGh.com.
In the Asante Akim North Constituency, a polling station chairman has been seen in a viral video cursing the MP, Hon. Andy Appiah Kubi and other party executives; in the Asawase Constituency, aide to the Vice President, Manaf Ibrahim has vowed to contest despite a resolution by the party to let Alidu Seidu run unopposed.
In the central region, the First Vice-Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Horace Ekow Ewusi, can no longer hold and exercise his authority as the second-in-command of the elephant family.
This follows his indefinite suspension from the party for grossly misconducting himself.
The deputy scribe who says all these developments culminate into soiling the image of the party and advancing the course of the opposition, has advised that, the mistakes that pushed the party out of government after the 2008 elections must not be repeated.
“I went to a village and wanted to use a bomber latrine; I was holding GHS 20 and the toilet attendant said he would not have change for me but he allowed me to use the facility for free because he knew I was the deputy general secretary of the NPP”, is that not an advantage for my party being in office, he quizzed.
