Ghana’s ambassador to South Africa, George Ayisi Boateng, says as an NPP appointee, his focus is helping NPP members first and non NPP Ghanaians would just have to live with that.
The NPP are not very shy about this — they look after themselves first and they are not ashamed of it, even if the country is supposed to belong to all of us.
Speaking with members of the Tertiary Students’ Confederacy Network (TESCON) at the Kumasi Technical University, he made the astonishing remarks which are so far gathering him immense criticism.
“This government is doing its best to create job opportunities and me for instance, I told my people over there [that], it is because of NPP that I’m here, so the NPP man is my priority.
“I told them when NDC was in power it was Kwesi Ahwoi who was there, now we are in power, so Ayisi-Boateng is here with you. My topmost priority is the problems of an NPP person before any other Ghanaian, take it or leave it,” he said.
“Indeed I’m not boasting, but I’ve started meeting the NPP groups. Every weekend I meet some group members and I tell you if I had my way, every job opportunity that will come will go to a TESCON member before any other person.” he added.
TESCON is the NPP’s tertiary students arm.
