A Senior Statesman and NPP foundation member, Dr Nyaho Nyaho Tamakloe, has called on the running mate of the party, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, to apologise to former President John Agyekum Kufuor.

This call comes in response to the former Energy Minister’s comment that President Nana Akufo-Addo is the best president Ghana has had since independence.

In an interview with 3FM, on Thursday, Dr. Tamakloe insisted that NAPO should apologise to former President Kufuor for his significant contributions to the country during his presidency.

“The only thing I will tell him is that he should go to [former President] J.A. Kufuor and apologise to him. That is the only person I want him [to go to].

"He should apologise to Kufuor because when President Kufuor took over this country, this country was in shambles. He was able to straighten things.

"I wouldn’t even like to refer him to the demands that the CPP people are putting up. No, I am not a CPP man. I will ask him to go and apologise to Kufuor.

"Because without Kufuor when we took over in 2000, we wouldn’t have got to where we are today.”

“…He should go to Kufuor with his hands behind him, kneel before him and beg him for that sort of statement that he has made,” he stated.

Dr Tamakloe also suggested that NAPO seek psychiatric help, attributing his behaviour to an inferiority complex.

“As for me, I will not advise him because I have already told you what his problem is. It is not arrogance, it is inferiority complex, and he needs the help of a psychiatrist,” he stated.
