Those who take you to IMF cannot break the 8–Kennedy Agyapong

The Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has said the New Patriotic Party cannot win the 2024 elections with the same faces taking the country to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a financial bailout. Engaging Party members at the ongoing NPP National Constituency Officers Welfare workshop at Koforidua in the Eastern Region Friday, Mr. Agyapong expressed disgust about the move by the government to seek a bailout from the IMF. “You are sitting here and you are smiling. IMF? What are we going to say again? Somebody texted me that I shouldn’t say anything about the IMF, I shouldn’t say anything about IMF? I will say it”. “Going into IMF is just like giving over power to NDC without a contest straightaway. Because the noise makes and I chew my own words back when I said NDC Went to IMF because of their mismanagement of the country or the economy”. “So, if NPP is going to IMF what am I going to say again? So, breaking the 8 is going to be tough. You cannot use the face of those who took us to IMF to break the 8, I won’t work. My message to you is simple, you cannot read my lips, and am not scared of anybody in the party, I will tell you the gospel truth.” Those who take you to IMF, those same faces cannot break the 8. A word to the wise is enough. I am very very sad today, when I saw the publication that we are going to IMF. You know, that is what Mahama was praying for and he has gotten his wish. It will not be easy, it will take hard work. So, prepare ourselves knowing there is a task ahead of us, and therefore, is only unity that will make sell through breaking the 8.

10 government officials not wanted in Akufo-Addo 2nd term – NPP group makes list

A pressure group affiliated with the governing New Patriotic Party, Patriotic Reform Movement says it has sampled the views of 2,500 party supporters nationwide and have come up with a list of officials who need to be kicked out of government in order to keep the prospect of maintaining power in 2024 alive. According to the group pushing for major reforms in the NPP, one of the major reasons for the near defeat of the party in the parliamentary elections of the 2020 general elections was as a result of the poor conduct and bad attitude of some government appointees. The groups say it gathered through its survey the individuals who will cause the party to lose the 2024 elections very badly if they are allowed to serve in any capacity in the next government to be formed by Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in his second term. “Such individuals will cause widespread apathy and will cause members to stay away and in severe cases leave the party. 2500 party members were interviewed across the 16 regions of Ghana and ten particular names were often mentioned,” the group in a statement said. See below the list of 10 officials NPP supporters do not want back in the 2nd term of Akufo-Addo according to the PRM survey: 1.Kan Dapaah – National Security Minister 2.Elizabeth Afoley Quaye – Minister for Fisheries 3.Daniel Titus Glover – Deputy Transport Minister 4.Anthony Karbo – Deputy Minister for Roads and Highways 5.Madam Frema Opare – Chief of Staff 6.Samuel Atta Akyea – Minister for Housing 7.Kwasi Amoako Atta – Minister for Roads and Highways 8.Professor Frimpong Boateng – Minister for Environment Science and Technology 9.Yaw Osafo Maafo – Senior Minister 10.Simon Osei Mensah – Ashanti Regional Minister. For the listed individuals, the group also listed top five issues that accounted for them making the list. They include arrogance towards party members and elders, lack of support for party structures, lack of response to calls and messages. Also included in the reasons are a lack of access to the offices of the officials and the awarding of contracts and giving of opportunities to members of the opposition National Democratic Congress at the expense of NPP supporters.

Just In: The MMDCEs who campaigned against the party to be thrown out of their positions– Osafo- Maafo

It has been established that some Municipal Chief Executives (MCE) and District Chief Executives (DCE) contributed to the abysmal performance witnessed within the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the December 7, elections. The Chairman of the Fact-Finding Committee, Yaw Osafo-Maafo in an interview with joynews monitored by Apexnewsgh.com said some District Chief Executive (DCE) and some Municipal Chief Executive’s (MCEs) campaigned against some parliamentary candidates which had affected the NPP parliamentary fortune across various regions “So far we realized that there are a lot of internal fishers, there are a lot of District Chief Executives, Municipal Chief Executives were undermining parliamentary candidate, and they were even campaigning against them.” He revealed According to the Senior Minister, they have able to identify some of these government appointees but unfortunately was unable to disclose them and the specific numbers unless the investigation is completed. “They would definitely have to be thrown out, definitely, any DCE or MCE who considered it right to work against a parliamentary candidate has no business to represent the party in the district.” “You are dealing with the same party so if you are a District Chief Executive or Municipal Chief Executive and your campaign against your parliamentary candidate, you have no business to be a DCE or MCE for the party.” He said He stressed, even though the constitution of the NPP does not point any sanction individuals who may work against the party, the same will not apply to the issues at hand.
