The Member of Parliament for Adenta, Kojo Adu Asare has launched a scathing attack on the Progressive Peoples Party (PPP) describing it as a party that carries no ‘political weight’ which no serious party like the National Democratic Congress (NDC) should waste its time and energy on.
According to him the PPP is not well grounded in Ghanaian politics and only engages in media politics, just interested in putting out issues in the various media platforms.
He made the comments in reaction to a comment made by a PPP activist Mr Samuel Longdon who was was on the same panel with the MP on Peace Fm’s Kokrokoo show on Monday 23rd July to the effect that the ruling NDC party has woefully failed to improve the lives of Ghanaians after preaching a Better Ghana message which won them power in the 2008 elections.
Hon. Adu- Asare noted that the PPP is just adding up to the number of political parties in Ghana and can not in any way make a meaningful impact in the upcoming December elections, saying ”that is why the NDC does not bother itself to respond to attacks and condemnation from the PPP’s Presidential Candidate Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom and other party activists”.
“We were in Ghana in 2008 when Dr PaPa Kwesi Nduom then the Flagbearer of the Convention Peoples Party(CPP) told Ghanaians that he had registered one(1) million people all with party cards, but at the end what was the results, abysmal performance by him, should we take such people serious’’ he said?.
Hon. Adu Asare added that the NDC government would not be destructed by any diversionary statements from opposition parties but remain focus on continuing Its good deeds of improving the lives of Ghanaians, which he claimed the government had done remarkedly.
