A Regional Communication team member of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) Johnson Ayine has advised the leadership of the party in the region to swallow their ego and reach out to the Communicators. Apexnewsgh.com report The aggrieved Communicator offered the advice to the regional party leadership during a political discussion on Dreamz FM monitored by Apexnewsgh.com on Friday, August 12, 2022. “We should put ego aside, we should put power aside and reach out to communicators. As I was saying, who stands to benefit in the situation? “I used to tell people that patient is very good because if you are able to have patient you can move mountains. Whatever you do on this earth, has a reward whether negative or positive”. He stated “If all of us were to go back to our bed and reflect back within this period on what has happened to each of us, we will understand things. This world where are we carrying it to? Mr. Ayine was responding to their strike actions as Communicators which lasted for almost 2months and was later called off by members of the communication team a few days ago. Their strike was triggered by the appointment of Peter Ayinbisa the former Bongo District Chief Executive as the NPP Regional Communication Director. Earlier, the striking members of the Regional Communication team were of the view that Peter Ayinbisa wasn’t part of the communication team in the region and cannot lead them as Communicators. They also accused the leadership of the party of not consulting them before the appointment. However, in a later copied to Apexnewsgh.com, the aggrieved Communicators advised media platforms to avoid engaging a few individuals mentioned in their statement because those individuals are not professionals when it comes to party Communication. Their statement has since generated some questions such as “Whose responsibility is to assign communicators on Radio Station to represent the party? In an interview, the Upper East Regional Chairman of the governing NPP Anthony Namoo who in his submission was specific said, it is the responsibility of the Regional Communication Director to assign Communicators on party matters. Meanwhile, it appears the response coming from the Regional Chairman did not go well with Johnson Ayine. He believes the response from Mr. Namoo was unnecessary. “Even this comment that Director is supposed to delegate Communicators it was not necessary”.

IMF: Cathedral, NABCO, FSHS, Ex-Gratia in shamble as IMF conditions demands….
The much awaited International Monetary Fund (IMF) has finally landed to dying Ghana economy with several conditions to enable them gain access to loan to regain the economy from a very critical state. However, as these conditions as anticipated by many Ghanaians, these conditions will go along way affecting average Ghanaians as most of them may see us loose several interventions that have us since the Akuffo Addo led new patriotic party came into power. The conditions include the immediate resolution of the free senior high school policy which was started in 2017 by the new patriotic party after winning the 2016 general election. The IMF believes Ghana’s economy is not at a state to render free senior high school education with several sectors on their needs. Also, the resolution of the nation builders corps since a chunk of money is used to pay several semi employed youth in the economy whose take home salary isn’t anything to talk about. It suggests that the government redirect these amounts in to the construction of more factories and job creation interventions to reduce the unemployment rate. Meanwhile, the IMF sees no reason why a country running to it would prioritize the construction of a cathedral among other pressing needs such as constant floods in the capital and increasing prices of foodstuffs in various markets across the 16 regions of Ghana. The IMF will also want the President to cut down on the size of the government especially the number of ministers. Ghana currently has over 82 ministers and this number takes on ton of money of the national coffers. The International Monetary Fund will also want to see the government abolish the ex gratia system which leases out huge amounts of tax payers money to past presidents and ministers of states who were duely paid during their tenure and had proper retirement packages made for them. These are but a few directives the financial organization will require from Ghana should it happen to grant us a loan to salvage our economy from its knees and getting back on its feet. Many Ghanaians are also against the decision by the government to run to the IMF to ask for another loans despite taking several loans within its 6years in power . Ghana’s current debt sits at about $54 billion which constitutes over 7000% of the country’s GDP. Apexnewsgh.com

Mr. Superior further said: “I feel sad and sick and I want to cry, because this party was built on certain clear values liberty, diversity, democracy, transparency honesty, and truth. And we have to be honest with our party. Are we keeping those values? If you allowed somebody to buy your votes. If someone gives you Ghc 5,000,00 and you vote for the person and really don’t think that this person is going to do a good job, what are you to the party? You are becoming a danger to the party. So, people should just disregard this, is not going to help you. Is it a deliberate attempt by those buying the vote to try and cease this party and make you useless and weak, so that, next time they can come back and buy your vote? In the last five years, the current executive officers of the party have abandoned this party and have abandoned our constituency executives. They don’t come here, they don’t come to the constituencies, all over the country, they don’t talk to our party people, and they don’t even identify themselves with them”. “Today, we are having an election, and their assistant and their agents are regularly calling these people they rejected and abandoned several years ago. So, what are you telling us? They think that we are unintelligent, they think we are stupid and they think they can come again and tell us stories”. He stressed However, the party is going to the polls on July 15-17, 2022, to elect their national party executives.
