The General Secretary of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie also known as Sir John has fired a salvo at government, accusing it of connivance in the controversial GH¢ 5I million judgement debt paid to business mogul, Alfred Agbesi Woyome. Sir John said the decision by the State Attorney to withdraw the charges of fraud and corrupting public officials leveled against Mr. Woyome and three others, smacks of double standards and hypocrisy. The NPP scribe was reacting to claims by the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) that the main opposition party has no campaign message and thus has resorted to vile propaganda with the 'Woyomegate' scandal to score cheap political points. The ruling party argued that the NPP has no moral authority to comment on the infamous Woyome saga given its track record on corruption in the erstwhile Kufuor administration. But in a rebuttal on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme Wednesday, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie indicated that the NPP’s pursuit for due diligence in the Woyomegate scandal is to safeguard the national purse for posterity. He said the NDC should not delude itself into thinking that the NPP has no campaign message since it has ample campaign ‘missiles’ to unseat the ruling party in the December general elections. Sir John cited the gargantuan corruption, unemployment, high cost of living, government failure to execute its one term premium of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), depreciation of the Cedi among other things as enough campaign messages to unseat the non-performing Mills-led administration ahead of the December polls. He said the fresh charges of "defrauding the state by false pretence and causing financial loss to the state" proffered on Alfred Woyome is just a political gimmick to delay the retrieval of the colossal money paid the NDC financier. Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie added that President John Evans Atta Mills cannot exonerate himself from the payment made to the embattled businessman since according all evidences points to the fact that the gargantuan corruption was perpetuated under his watch. “He [Mills] cannot run away from this gargantuan corruptible practice in this country” he said. Sir John urged all well-meaning Ghanaians to join to fight to ensure that Alfred Woyome and his cronies face the full rigours of the law.
