“NPP Leaders Are Useless”

The last of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah’s officially recognized children, last Wednesday, advised the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) saying, “The NPP should quickly dump Nana Addo before he ‘dumps’ his troubles on them “.

On his social media platform, Facebook, Dr. Sekou Nkrumah noted that “the NPP’s nest should be cleaned because it is looking like a place where something bad is flourishing. Nana Addo’s behaviour after the elections is what is malicious and disgusting. Don’t blame me that you have useless leaders!!!”

The decision by the former flag bearer of the NPP not to accept the results of the December 7 elections, has led to the former National Coordinator of the National Youth Authority (NYA), Dr. Sekou Nkrumah, describing him as a sore loser.

To this end, Dr. Nkrumah who left the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) and endorsed the candidature of Nana Addo for the elections has since gone on the offensive, warning the NPP to disregard their former leader before he lands his misfortunes on the once credible party.

On his social media platform last Wednesday, he advised the party saying, “The NPP should quickly dump Nana Addo before he ‘dumps’ his troubles on them “.

These words certainly did not go down well with the party’s supporters on his page who until his recent outbursts had hailed him during the period when he (Sekou) attacked the late President John Mills and the NDC.

The supporters sharply criticized him for poking his nose into the affairs of the NPP as one of them told him, “Sekou, I think your comments are highly prejudicial, do you think Nana Addo and the NPP leadership would go to court just for going sake?

Nana Addo should rather be commended for conducting himself in this responsible manner. The NDC’s 4,800 witnesses should give you a clue as to the solid petition of the NPP………Time would put you to SHAME”.

Another followed suit saying “Sekou I am extremely disappointed in you. Please I respect you so much, so behave accordingly because such malicious write-ups are very disgusting and useless”.

In a sharp rebuttal, Dr. Nkrumah directed the angry supporters to clean their party and turn their guns on their useless leadership who have since the elections failed to concede defeat.

“In other words; the NPP’s nest should be cleaned because it is looking like a place where something bad is flourishing. Nana Addo’s behaviour after the elections is what is malicious and disgusting. Don’t blame me that you have useless leaders!!!

He insisted that even though he had resigned from the NDC, he still possessed his party card, as he would never go for an NPP membership card, because his late father, Osagyefuo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah would not be happy with that decision.

“I still have my NDC membership card although I resigned from the party! Lol as for NPP I did not and will not go for a membership card (do you want my father’s ghost to wake up and chase me?) but I did support them for 2012”, he said.

Certainly worried about the NPP’s decision to remain in court until they are declared winners of the polls, Sekou Nkrumah wrote once again on his wall “The actions of the NPP should not send us back to military dictatorship!”.

Sekou who has in the past weeks entreated his once good friend Nana Addo, to concede defeat and focus on restructuring the NPP ahead of the 2016 general elections, told his facebook friends “Am I too quick to dump losers?” implying he has dumped Nana Addo.

Apparently frustrated by what is going on in the party, Dr. Nkrumah posted on his wall: “I am fast losing sympathy for the NPP, but I also don’t want to rejoin the NDC. What do I do? Go and drink the sea?”
