National Zongo Youth Club described the comments made by Ghana’s High Commissioner to South Africa, George Ayisi Boateng that his topmost priority when it comes to offering jobs is NPP members as apt.
According to the group, those are criticizing the diplomat for speaking the truth are being hypocritical and liars adding that calls for his dismissal is unnecessary.
George Ayisi Boateng’s pledge to prioritize the welfare of New Patriotic Party (NPP) members before considering other Ghanaians, has been met with outrage and calls for his dismissal from some sections of the public.
He made these remarks at a ceremony over the weekend to welcome fresh members of the tertiary wing of the NPP, Tertiary Students’ Confederacy Network (TESCON) at the Kumasi Technical University.
… This government is doing its best to create job opportunities and me for instance, I told my people over there [that], it is because of NPP that I’m here, so the NPP man is my priority. I told them when NDC was in power it was Kwesi Ahwoi who was there, now we are in power, so Ayisi-Boateng is here with you. My topmost priority is the problems of an NPP person before any other Ghanaian take it or leave it.”
“Indeed I’m not boasting, but I’ve started meeting the NPP groups. Every weekend I meet some group members and I tell you if I had my way, every job opportunity that will come will go to a TESCON member before any other person. And I know my colleague appointees also have the same feeling except that because of IMF we cannot do anything now.
Some section of the public have vented their spleen and described the comments as distasteful.
Some also took offense to the undertone of partisanship and cronyism in the High Commissioner’s comments.
Speaking to OTECNEWS leader for the Nana Agayemang Prempeh said it is only fair for a party leader to inspire and encourage members to who help the NPP win power in the 2016 general elections.
Nana Agyemang noted that those criticizing the Ghanaian Diplomat are just being mischievous and trying to win undue political advantage”.
‘’the comments is apt and support him and want other party member to emulate same’’, he declared.
