NDC and NPP supporters

We will match the NDC boot for boot - NPP
The ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) says it will
match the opposition National Democratic Congress
(NDC) boot for boot in case they unleash their
thugs on the party as promised.

Deputy General Secretary of the NPP, lawyer Obiri
Boahen addressing the press at the party’s
headquarters in Accra, said, they are tired of the
allegations of attacks from the NDC and threats of
reprisal attacks.

He slammed the police administration over what he
termed unprofessional conduct and the way and
manner they have dealt with issues of attacks in
the country.

The party has not endorsed or ordered any party
member to seize state property or attack NDC
supporters and so we are urging the police to be
up and doing.

He said, the police only take action against known
NPP members when such issues come up but treats
the NDC with kid gloves, on same issues.

‘’The leadership of the NPP has not ordered
any member to attack people or seize property. We
will not do that nor stand behind anyone who
attacks people. The law is the law and must be
applied in a affair and balanced manner,’’ he
said.’

He lambasted Mr. Kofi Porturphy, Chairman of the
NDC following a press conference he addressed last
week; slamming President Nana Akufo –Addo over
the attacks and calling on him to call the members
to order.

Lawyer Obiri Boahen said, they are fed up with the
allegation and threats from the NDC hence the NPP
is ready to match them boot for boot.

He said, ‘’tell Kofi Porturphy that we have
not forgotten about his vandalism in 2009. He led
thugs to go and take over the offices of NADMO and
was later assigned the position as NADMO boss. So
what is he is talking about? Why is he
complaining?’’

According to him, the position taking by the NDC
is needless and suggested that, a proper approach
is adopted instead of the allegation and issue of
threats.
