‘Kufuor Is Wicked, Hates Nana Addo’

NPP Guru Fumes, Says JAK’s Comments On Adom FM Were Premeditated

News Desk Report

Just at the time the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) and its political-elephantiasis-plagued Flagbearer, Mr. Williams Nana Addo-Dankwa Akufo-Addo seem to be putting on flying feathers from the state of stupor they found themselves, following bruises suffered in weeks of media and public-place discussions on politically fatal revelations from the Wikileaks cable, ex-President John Agyekum Kufuor, with his long-hatred for Nana Akufo-Addo finds it expedient to stoke the fire, by rekindling the debate on the said subject.
The latest US diplomatic dispatch in which, the NPP Flagbearer is on record as the nation’s most celebrated wee smoker who wakes up with heavy cloud of wee smoke hanging over his head (all praises to comrade Kwesi Pratt) and womanizer, was still on.

However; speaking to Adakabre Frimpong-Manso, Host of Adom FM’s Adwasu Nsem on Thursday 22nd September, 2011, in relations to the Wikileaks cables that placed his party and its Flagbearer in a very bad light, ex-President John Kufuor, a smart politician as he is always referred to, in his avowed stance not to see Akufo-Addo sworn into office as leader of this dear nation, opens up a new can of worms.
Per his badly thought-out and infantile analysis, as this paper has it, former President Kufuor’s comment has become problematic to the NPP hierarchy, particularly, its non-flying Flagbearer.
According to the paper’s “leaks”, pronouncements by Mr. Kufuor have become a subject of huge debate among the rank and file of the NPP, with some fans of Nana Akufo-Addo threatening to call the bluff of former President Kufuor, if he continues with his evil agenda of further destroying NPP Flagbearer.
Sounding furious, a leading bankrolling-member of the NPP, who spoke to The Informer on strict condition of anonymity for fear of victimization, without mincing words, referred to ex-President Kufuor as a vampire and a self-seeking person.
“What at all does Kufuor and his Ashanti brothers want from Nana Addo, that they will not leave him alone and spare him the agony of disgrace they seem to be heaping on him”, the top NPP guru queried.
“It is a public secret and anybody in the NPP who has followed the conduct of ex-President Kufuor, particularly, through his utterances about issues concerning Nana Addo, knows for a fact, that the Ashanti group in the party has made up its mind to make the NPP lose again, even though some of them pretend to be working in his interest: It is because of this very reason that I have decided to take on Kufuor, and I will confront him anytime we meet at any of our party functions”, he grieved.
“Many of us supportive of Nana Addo in his bid to become leader of this country, did not believe reports carried out by some NDC papers including The Informer that I find appropriate to grant this interview; that Kufuor does not want Nana Addo to become President, but with critical assessment of all his comments on matters involving the party Flagbearer, and reports that there are moves underway by the Ashanti caucus in the party to get him replaced, pushing for an early congress, perfectly confirm why Kufuor has decided to resurrect this Wikileaks report on Nana Addo, during his interview with Adakabre and some of us will not forgive him for that”, the guru indicated.
“If indeed Kufuor is not wicked a person and hates Nana Addo why should he make those pronouncements on Adom FM when we all know he was just pretending to be defending the party’s Flagbearer with those lame analysis at the time discussions on the wikileaks was dying down naturally”, he inquired.
“Kufuor is wicked and hates Nana Addo, I repeat; because he did similar thing when he was asked by the press on a visit to the Castle months ago on invitation of President Mills, whether or not he supports the Flagbearer’s ‘all die be die” comment; and on this note, I am more than convinced that Kufuor wants the NPP to lose in 2012; so they, the Ashantis, like it’s been widely reported, can take over the reign of the party in 2016”, he added.
“How Intelligent is Kufuor than those of us including the National Chairman, Jake Otanka Obetsebi-Lamptey that have decided not to make our voices be heard on the allegations raised in the wikileaks, that he should be the one defending Nana Addo, when he knows in his heart that he was doing the Flagbearer in”; he stated further, saying, they will meet him boot for boot, if he dares go ahead with his unrefined attitude of destroying Akufo-Addo via his public utterances.
However, intelligence information reaching this paper as of press time indicates that, a party delegation to be led by the National Chairman later this week, will meet with ex-President Kufuor to prevail upon him not to comment publicly on issues concerning Akufo-Addo, since his comments always generate a lot of controversy in the media.
