Akpaloo ‘bashes’ Mahama

-

Leader of the Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG), Kofi Akpaloo, has lambasted former president John Dramani Mahama for recently stating that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is unbeatable in unleashing violence.

According to him, Mr. Mahama should never have made such dangerous and unfortunate statement in public.

“He is a statesman and therefore I did not expect him to pass such dangerous comment in public,” Mr. Akpaloo, who is outspoken, said.

Mr. Akpaloo indicated that as former president, Mr. Mahama should always set the right example for others to follow.

“My brother, his statement that the NDC are champions in unleashing violence in this country is far below the belt so he should be condemned,” he added.

Some political parties demonstrated on Thursday morning in Accra to condemn the violence that characterized the recent by-election in Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency.

“For us in the LPG, we see Mr. Mahama’s statement as a threat to the peace of this country and that is why we are joining the demonstrators to condemn him today.

“My party was involved in the Ayawaso polls and I can state that there were no acts of violence in the polling centers as some people fabricated in the media.
