Rejoinder: Nana Kakra warns Dan Botwe to stay off his posters

The attention of Okere Constituency New Patriotic Party executives have
been drawn to a news caption “Nana Kakra warns Dan Botwe to stay off his
posters” of may 19, 2016 on ghanaweb; in which the NDC parliamentary
candidate for Okere accuses Hon. Dan Botwe of instructing his boys to
deface and remove his posters in some parts of the constituency.
In the first place this is absolute falsehood and it is never true that
anybody have been arrested for such acts. This is just a cheap infantile
tactics for him to gain undeserved attention knowing very well that any
news with the name of Hon. Dan Botwe will sell.

In any case so far as parliamentary election in Okere is concerned nana
Kakra is of no match. Surely the good people of Okere are solidly behind
Hon. Dan Botwe due to the tremendous improvement and his exemplary
leadership.

We rather advice nana Kakra to focus his energy on solving the disunity he
has brought to his party the NDC in Okere. He does not accord the needed
regard to the MCE who was a former parliamentary aspirant for the NDC and
has led to the MCE withdrawing his support.

There have been numerous confrontations between his supporters and that of
the MCE to the extent that none of the known and active supporters of the
MCE joins nana Kakra in his campaign tour.

We want o let him know that if he has any one to issue a warning to; it
should go to his own people. We in the NPP are focused on maximizing votes
in Okere.

We ask that all discerning persons should treat his tantrums with all the
contempt it deserves. We also wish to add that we will not react to
anything he says- since as stated earlier it will be a means of him getting
undeserved attention.

We have issued this rejoinder out of the respect we have for the public but
will subsequently not respond to any of his childish falsehood.

Signed
Daniel Nana Addo Kenneth
(NPP Constituency Secretary-Okere)
