The Member of Parliament for Okaikoi South, Nana Akomea and the General Secretary of the Convention People's Party, Mr. Ivor Greenstreet, Wednesday gave the newly elected propaganda Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Richard Quashigah, a baptism of fire for his comments that the detractors of the ruling party were responsible for the earthquake scare.Mr Ivor Greenstreet described the comments on Citi FM, a private radio station as nonsense whilst Nana Akomea in an interview said it was childish and an insult on the intelligence of the thousands of people who suffered.
.
According to Nana Akomea "this business about the NPP being the cause of the earthquake is the most childish statement I have ever heard the whole of this year."Now I understand it was being promoted by the new Propaganda Secretary, if this is the style of Quashigah then he is going to make the NDC more laughable."He noted that this was a scare that deprived thousands of people of sleep and the only response government can give is that this is the work of the opposition.Nana Akomea wondered why Mr. Richard Quashigah could make such conclusions and say that the opposition party did so to take news away from the congress."So you ask yourself, what was the good news about the NDC Congress, you went to congress and elected your people, what is good about this, the good thing about this is that you did not fight among yourself and that is all," he stated. "And what it means is that the NDC was so afraid that they were going to turn against themselves but when it did not happen they thought this was great news that a whole political party like the NPP would try and dampen that news ... it is so childish"."The news is that they didn't beat themselves up and that is the congratulations they need and they think that it is such an achievement and a party like the NPP is going to try and take that achievement, no way".Mr. Greenstreet on the other hand said he does not see any success in the congress to warrant any great applause that will cause a propaganda secretary to come out with his own effusions and draw the attention of the media when there are things of importance to talk about."I can't advise the NDC, I am not a member of the party and if they hold a congress where there would be violence then they have no business being in government," Mr. Greenstreet lamented.Source: Ghanaian Times
