Ghana's High Commissioner to South Africa, Mr. George Ayisi - Boateng has bemoaned over the recent violence within the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) over school feeding programme.

According to him, violence is not characteristics of NPP adding member should exercise restraint.

‘The authorities should amicably find a lasting solution to the school feeling wranglings in the party’’, he said.

"Let me take this opportunity to beg Party sympathizers to calm down down, it is true that everybody has high expectations but God has time for everybody," he noted.

"Every position is occupy by one person so I am appealing to our members to patient while the President is working with humility and calmness and it’s expected that party faithful follow same," Mr. Ayisi Boateng stated.

Recently, the Northern Regional School Feeding programme office remains shut eight days after a pro-New Patriotic Party (NPP) group, Burma Camp locked the office.

The group have vowed not to open the office until their grievances are met, a stance that has left school children hungry.

The October 16, shut down was led by Kamil Sulemana who has pointed out that monitoring officers are also doublings as caterers who cook for two or three schools.
