    Indeed, indeed, indeed, Amanfuo: For the outgoing chairman of the NPP, Mr. Obetsebi -Lamptey, to garner only 66 votes—not even 100—out of thousands to his competition, to me, is a monumental disappointment and complete wr ...

    Jake is not an 'Akanfuo' but held the position Afoko has just taken. What happened to him? Afoko or not the NPP IS A TRIBAL PARTY (AKANFUO) AND WILL REMAIN SO TILL ETERNITY. Are you saying the Desperate Evil Dwarf is unaware ...

    What is your point ? If you cannot exprssx yourself clearly on this forum why not keep your primary school ideas within you ? Truly the lecturer was trying to make a point !

  • w3 10 years ago

    You cannot change people's perception overnight by appointing Afoko or whatever. Everything in Gh is view through tribal specs. Former Chairman O Lamptey is not an Akan. Did it make a difference to stupid voters who voted NDC ...

    The NPP is still a tribalistic Ashanti/Akyem party. Paul Afoko being the Chairman of the party does not change the truth. Was JAKE an Ashanti. Was JAKE also non Ashanti. So what is different now. Afoko in place of JAKE does n ...

    you call NPP an Akan party when things have changed dramatically. NPP only needs some more votes from the north(Northerners and Ashantis are brothers)to win next elections. The strange Ewes from Togo can remain NDC for ever t ...

    Call it all you want, but it is still who they are.Arrogance and gross insensitivity to the rest of the nation.

  • Kwaansa 10 years ago

    These are the kind of lecturers who produce unemployable graduates. Afoko has always been a leading member of the NPP. Jake is not an Asanti, if even he is Ghanaian at all.

  • DUNAA, Chorkor 10 years ago

    This comic relief from the NPP should not excite any serious minded political watcher. Why didn't the NPP make this same argument when Jake was the chairman and the same accusation was flying high? Or Jake was not a non-Akan ...

    NPP NATIONAL CHAIRMEN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN NON-AKANS.MENTION ODOESYKES,B.J.DA-ROCHER,PETER ALA ADJETEY,OBECHEBI-LAMPTEY.
    THEREFORE THE NOTION THAT THE PARTY IS AKAN PARTY IS ONLY BAD PROPAGANDA.
