Flt-Lt. FIRE-Officer JJ is FIRE-ing Foot-Soldiers to Burn Mills

*By Akadu Ntiriwa Mensema, Ph. D.

Ho, May 16, GNA – “Dr Kwabena Adjei, National Chairman of the ruling NDC, has noted
that the Foot Soldiers concept is the baby of the NPP and not known to the party. He
stressed that the first party to use the phrase was NPP and not NDC, and "any group
or persons wearing that tag is more of NPP than NDC" (Ghanaweb May 16, 2010).
