Former Communications Director for the Nana Addo Campaign Team in the 2008 General Elections, Dr. Kobina Arthur Kennedy, is expressing worry about the New Patriotic Party (NPP)’s lack of united front in fighting a common cause.

According to the former NPP presidential aspirant, who was pilloried and maligned following a book he authored and titled, “Chasing The Elephant Into The Bush; The Politics of Complacency”, his Party has not learnt any useful lessons from their 2008 election loss.

“The leaders of the party have fallen prey to unhealthy activities characterized by factions in the party…But one day the NPP will thank me for my wonderful works especially in the next general elections in 2012,” he said.

Dr. Arthur Kennedy said he has detailed various suggestions in his book and some other measures that the party must in order to win power back again from the ruling NDC government.

Speaking on Adom FM, he said, NPP activists and party sympathizers will attribute the party’s victory in the 2012 elections to the fact that they heeded his advice, which is contained in the book, and “in the same way NPP party leaders should be blamed for deriding his advice should there be an electoral loss.”

In a related development, acclaimed playwright and poet, “Uncle” Ebo Whyte, has lauded Dr. Arthur Kennedy for his resolve to write a book about the NPP’s electoral defeat in spite of the fact that he will be the bad books of some influential people or elders of the party.

“He knew the price he was going to pay. Dr. Kennedy knew this could bring trouble, yet he looked beyond his personal political gain,” he said.

Speaking on the same platform, Mr. Ebo Whyte was of the view that “if there were two or three such books, Ghana’s politics will change.”

“If anyone believes it does not give a true account of what happened, he or she should also write one,” he added.
