NPP should also ignore Afoko's imprisonment for drug offenses like they did to McManu. Is it because Aofko is a northerner that they want to dig that far?

Stop these silly rumors. He was never jailed in the UK, get your facts right.
Afoko will definitely become chairman against all odds.

Was he one of the many failed coup makers against the JJ? JJ was a rock, a stone, metal, hard as diamond. They tried and tried and tried but the dude survived for 19yrs. Hehehe!!

The NPP's Vetting committee should be very careful and not be rushed to endorse people with baggage that will in the long run embarrass the party. They should scrutinize this Afoko guy very thoroughly because of his demeanor and actions seems to suggest his has something to hidden.

Even JJ himself was in jail before he did a coup and went on to become twice Ghana president. He Afoko never tried to overthrow a democratically elected president at that time. It was a military regime so why hold it against him. If he has more suspicious character, so be it but the coup and going to jail can not be held against him. As a mater of fact he did right thing because he was resisting against a coup that was against a democratically elected president who was over thrown.

If you were jailed in the UK, that's bad and disqualifies you to become party chairman. The opposition parties could use that against NPP. Think twice and stop your greediness. There are so many ways you could be useful to the party apart from trying to fight to become party chairman. Aren't you the same person who tried to induce party members with cash in NPP's congress in 2007? You were caught doling out monies for votes in favour of Mr. Alan Kyeremateng when your dirty schemes were leaked out. Why are you still fighting to force yourself into a position where you can't fit? Be wise and stop these kinds of ugly moves which tend to bring divisions within and save the party. I just can't understand what some NPP members are all about? Why can't Paul Afoko & Co. grow up a bit so the party could plan for the battle ahead?

Paul, some us knew your background in U.K.that you can't hide from.
It's a simple question-were you put in the cooler in U.K ?
Stop blaming others for you rolling the dice when you were young. It has come back to bite you.

Afoko was not jailed for inciting unrest. He was jailed for drug trafficking. The NPP should get that fact right. That apart, Ghanaians are not fools. Ghanaians are not illiterates and stupid to leave this country in the hands of drug dealers such as Akufo Addo and his family members and if this Afoko man is not qualified, what about Akufo Addo and the rest? Moreover, this should tell these pathetic northerners that, they are not welcome into this tribal party. We know many of their family members who are drug convicts, rapist and thives yet they are given juicy positions in ths tribal party. Afoko, wise up and use your sense! Already, three northerners have been disqualified. These are the idiots telling us that, their tribal group is a political party. The letter was written by they themselves. Has Akufo Addo come out to deny or accept the numerous drug issues that he has been seriously involved, even to the extend of stealing diplomatic passports and sharing them amlong his family members? Wake up northerners.

If you care to know, the illicit drug trade gained prominence during Rawlings' era (1979-2000) where the drug was big-time business. Everyone in the party got involved; the diplomatic bags became the conduit of transport and trade. I hope you've not forgotten that Rawlings caused a big stir in the British Parliament when he remarked: "my wife doesn't deal in drugs" amid jeers and yelling from the august house. This is no secret. But can you state here on Ghanaweb one instance where Nana Akufo-Addo's name has been linked to any drug trade? Show people evidence and don't try tell lies, that's typical of NDC---your party will always use vile propaganda and deceit to cause disaffection about noble people like Nana Akufo-Addo, Dr. Bawumia, J.A. Kuffour and others.
Can you also inform everyone about any unqualified citizen or persons who received a Diplomatic Passport from Nana Akufo-Addo's office when he was Minister of Foreign Affairs? I'll refer you to your own NDC propaganda ministers for clarification on this bogus assertion of yours. Stop the lies and try to grow up and stop this kind of criminal attitude; you could get into serious trouble.
The latest arrest about drug involve and NDC "Apparatchik" who was arrest at the Kotoka Airport, with a registered Security Company, contracted by NDC govt. to keep watch at the Airport. Stop your nonsense because there's no room for such dirty things.
Try to be objective and quit telling lies; it won't help you.
Check the records yourself your shame can't compare. It's well documented!
