The Campaign Manager of the opposition New
Patriotic Party (NPP), Peter Mac Manu, has issued a disclaimer regarding
allegations that he described Assin Central Member of Parliament (MP) Kennedy
Ohene Agyapong as a mole within the NPP.A publication on
weeklyguidegh.com indicated that Mr. Manu had made comments to the effect that
“Ken Agyapong is a deep-rooted paid agent of the NDC planted to destroy the
NPP”.
In a disclaimer, however, Mr. Mac Manu said: “For the record, I
have not made any such comments about the Hon Ken Agyapong and I have no basis
for doing so. The story is obviously yet another desperate and shameless
fabrication from one of the many discredited online news portals operated by
assigns of the NDC ostensibly to set NPP leadership on a failed collision
course.”
He said he was currently on a campaign tour, meeting with people
from the Northern, Upper East and Upper West regions “who are working tirelessly
for the NPP's victory in the December elections”.
Mr. Mac Manu said he
“would normally not respond to such obvious falsehoods on the Internet but it
had become rather necessary to expose this vicious propaganda and lies from the
NDC”.
He entreated all members of the NPP and other Ghanaians who are
unhappy with President John Mahama's administration “to remain focused on the
all-important agenda of removing the NDC from office come December 7 and not be
distracted by the usual NDC lies”. |
