Aggrieved NPP supporters attack I.C. Quaye

"There is something enigmatic about Alhaji Inusah Issaka," comments The Accra Mail, which says also that "whenever he sets his foot on the political landscape, there is trouble." Even though he has asked to be brought back to his mother party the NPP, there is already confusion about his sudden, about-turn. In the NDC where he had a brief sojourn, party stalwarts point accusing fingers at him as the cause of the group's poor showing in the last elections.

Party supporters and sympathizers of the NPP have stormed the office and house of the Greater Accra Regional Minister, Sheikh I.C. Quaye, requesting that Inusah should be snubbed with some threatening that they would advised themselves if the 'traitor' is accepted back to the NPP fold.

Meanwhile, Madam Hawa Yakubu who was sympathetic to Inusah's move and asked that he be accepted has attracted the opprobrium of a cross section of the NPP top hierarchy. An MP in a telephone chat with the paper, cautioned the party managers to be wary of NDC maneuvers to destabilize the NPP through Inusah.
