Accept responsibility for your actions - NDC urges NPP

The Brong Ahafo Regional Secretariat of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has expressed concern about the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government's inability to accept responsibility for its actions and inaction's but rather blaming their inefficiencies on NDC.

In a press statement, signed by Alhaji Kwadwo Maama Adam, NDC Regional Chairman, the NDC said NPP officials, "rush falsely to conclude issues without investigations and later return to apologise".

The statement made reference to the NPP government's initial explanation and justification for the misconduct of the operatives of the National Bureau of Investigations (BNI) at the residence of former Vice President John Evans Atta Mills and its later decision to apologise and to suspend those found to have been involved in the infamous drama of harassing Mrs Naadu Mills.

"As much as we welcome the NPP government's apology, we strongly deplore the characteristic NPP tactics of shifting everything negative on the NDC." The statement described such action as unfair but not surprising, since Alhaji Alhassan Malik, Minister of the Interior could go so low to the extent of claiming that NDC elements were causing bush fires.
