An NPP Special Security Squad for Infiltration and Destabilisation of other political parties is under training at the Achiase Jungle Warfare Training School? A Special Meeting of NPP Organisers and NPP Government officials was convened at the Elmina Beach Resort last Thursday to strategise and organise ‘ways and means’ for the upcoming Electoral Registration exercise? The NPP has targeted the following NDC MPs and their constituencies for special attention in order to try and wrestle the constituencies from them at the 2004 elections, and that an initial amount of ?100 million per MP has been earmarked for the project: (a) Hon. Ama Benyiwa-Doe – Gomoa West; (b) Hon. Hannah Tetteh-Kpodar – Awutu-Senya; (c) Hon. Mike Hammah – Efutu; (d) Hon. Dr. Ato Quarshie – Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abirem? President Kufuor is to tour the Central, Brong Ahafo and Western Regions starting from the second week of September as part of his efforts to ‘damage control’ the devastating impact of the two Press Conferences on the economic hardships facing Ghanaians held by NDC flagbearer Professor John Evans Atta-Mills on 3rd and 16th July 2003 respectively? President Kufuor has instructed the intelligence agencies to intensify their surveillance and monitoring of ex-President J. J. Rawlings and his closest associates, and that as a result, the BNI has mounted a 24-hour surveillance on him, on a 4-hour rotational basis, using plain-clothed BNI personnel, and is it also true that visitors to the ex-President’s residence are trailed to their next and sometimes final destinations?
