The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has asked its communicators not to respond to matters raised by its suspended National Chairman, Paul Afoko.
Per a press statement released Wednesday, the party noted that the issues raised by its beleaguered suspended former chair are matters currently before the court, and hence must not be commented on in the media.
Below is the full statement.
The attention of the New Patriotic Party has been drawn to issues raised by Mr Paul Afoko at a press conference today, 18th November 2015. The media have also sought the party’s take on the issues raised by Mr Afoko.
We note that the issues Mr Afoko raised are issues before the courts of Ghana, brought before the courts by Messrs Tweneboa Kodua and two others, represented by the same lawyers representing Mr Afoko.
Indeed, Mr Afoko made reference to these court matters when he issued a message on Monday 2nd November, 2015, to members of the NPP National Council urging them to stay away from a National Council meeting on basis of this court action.
The party is therefore surprised that Mr Afoko will canvass, at his press conference, those same issues before the courts.
The party urges all officials and communicators to desist from speaking on these matters on the airwaves, as they are now matters before the court.
…Signed…
Nana Akomea
(Communications Director)
