Former Majority Leader, Abraham Osei Aidoo has described the recent outburst in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as another recipe for disaster.
“What is happening in our party is not good and it is a recipe for another disaster,” he said.
Mr. Aidoo was speaking with Afia Pokua the Vim Lady Wednesday on Burning Issues on Adom FM and Asempa FM.
It would be recalled that NPP stalwart and financier Kennedy Agyapong has been campaigning vehemently against the current National Executive, accusing them of misappropriation of resources and calling them incompetent.
The Assin Central MP has even threatened to use $20million to form a new party and run the NPP down if the current National Chairman, Jake Obetsebi Lamptey retained his seat.
He has also threatened to quit Parliament and resign from the part if the executive dared to take him to the disciplinary committee of the party tom answer for his allegations against the executive.
Some of the executives, including the National Chairman and his First Vice, Fred Oware have fired back at Kennedy Agyapong.
Meanwhile the First Vice is also calling the National Chairman a liar because the latter said the former had shelved plans to run for the chairmanship.
Mr. Aidoo said such internal wrangling are driving floating voters away from the party like what happened in 2007 when 17 candidates fiercely contested for the party’s presidential slot.
He expressed his disappointment in the manner in which party stalwarts like Okere MP, Dan Botwe who are denying any wrangling in the party saying that behaving like an ostrich would not solve the problem.
Mr. Aidoo thinks among all the contestants for the position of General Secretary, Kwabena Agyapong fits the bill best.
