"We'll jail Kufuor and all his ministers !"

A senior member of the P(NDC) has publicly said that his party is capable of staging a coup d?etat and will employ whatever it takes to get rid of the NPP.

Mr. Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, Deputy Campaign Manager of the NDC, made the call during Saturday’s ‘Victory 2004 symposium’ held at Cape Coast Polytechnic.

Themed “Democratic Development in Ghana, the Role of the Student”, Mr. Ankrah told the students “We are at war and if we do a coup d`etat, we would have saved the NPP but we won’t do it.

He was also quick to add that the NPP must be removed from office by hook or crook.

“They must go!” he screamed.

The National Youth Organiser, Haruna Iddrisu, however called on students to join the bandwagon to chase them (NPP) “crazy”.

He revealed what may be his party’s hidden agenda that “ From Kufuor to the last minister are all jailable in future”.
