NPP communicators boycott media discussions over jobs

Members of New Patriotic Party (NPP) communications team said they have lost interest in government to provide them jobs as they were promised in opposition urging President Akufo-Addo to wake up to their problems.

“It has been nearly four months since power was won, and we have absolutely no indication of faith in our leadership of the communications directorate”, members of the Ashanti Regional communications team wrote officially to suspend their activities until further notice.

“Government by now would have a sense of direction regarding appointments and jobs for our members who by defending the party on radio, television and other platforms contributed to the party’s victory”.

The Regional Communications team has appreciated the large number of people from the region now ministers but want to make a case for communication members.

“We also have competencies to be their spokespersons, press secretaries, government appointees and others” the members stated in a press release.

The communication team took a swipe at the lackadaisical attitude of the party’s communications directors.

“After losing the 2012 polls, Nana Akomeah met and encouraged us to work harder for the party to come to power. After winning the elections, we are yet to set an eye on him”

The group stated in the petition which they copied to the Flagstaff House they will continue to drum their problems until government finds solutions to them.
