Tarzan, Arthur K, Nyaho Tamakloe are rabble rousers; ignore them - NPP man

A member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP)National Council, Eugene Antwi, Eugene Antwi says Dr.Nyaho Nyaho Tamaklo, Dr.Arthur Kennedy and Dr.Charles Wereko-Brobby are the "most indiscipline peopled in the NPP".

He said since NPP decided to challenge the 2012 presidential election in court, these three "wise men" have made a conscious effort to rundown the party.

"We are protecting this political vehicle [NPP] jealously and zealously and will deal with anyone who will seek to run it down. People have sacrificed a lot for this party so these three men cannot hold the NPP to ransom" he exclaimed.

Eugene Antwi’s remarks were in reaction to commentaries made by Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe and Arthur Kennedy about the fate of the party’s General Secretary, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie popularly known as Sir John after he was fined for intentional criminal contempt.

The two outspoken NPP gurus have openly expressed disappointment about the party’s inability to sanction Sir John after he was convicted by the Supreme Court for contempt.

Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe demanded the resignation of Sir John because he had brought the name of the party into disrepute.

Dr. Arthur Kennedy who disagrees with Nyaho’s call said the National leadership should crack the whip from top hierarchy to the bottom including the party's 2012 presidential candidate, Nana Akufo Addo.

He queried anybody would ask Sir John to resign when Nana Addo is still at post?.

Dr. Wereko-Brobby also known as Tarzan on the other hand, made comments deemed harmful to the image of the party and was subsequently suspended.

Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme Friday, Eugene Antwi said the conduct of the three men [Arthur K, Tarzan, Nyaho] smacks of "double standards and hypocrisy".

According to him, all they are seeking to do is to divert the party’s attention from the court case to satisfy their pay masters.

Eugene Antwi contended that since John Mahama became president, the demeanor and utterances of Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe and his allies towards the NPP has changed dramatically.

"I become worried when people who claim to be leading members of the party behave like this; if they [Arthur K, Tarzan, Nyaho] have any advice, they should give it to their pay master who is being challenged in court" he offered.

The NPP Council member said the three must remember that "the NPP is the hand that fed them to achieve their political aim".

Eugene Antwi stated emphatically that the three doctors given their conduct are not genuine members of the NPP and thus must be ignored.
