The NPP, per a statement signed by its Director of Communications, Nana Akomea, claims that Kobby Acheampong, since his elevation to the position of a Deputy Minister has exhibited unbridled arrogance and tirade-laden character unbecoming of his office and is also an ignominy to governance, and as a result must be kicked out of office.

NPP CALLS ON PRESIDENT MILLS TO REMOVE DEPUTY MINISTER FOR INTERIOR MR. KWABENA ACHEAMPONG
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) calls on President Mills to remove Mr. Kwabena Acheampong from the position of Deputy Minister of State.
Mr. Acheampong’s insulting behavior, rudeness and arrogance does not befit the high position of Deputy Minister and is a disgrace to governance in our country.
In the run-up to the 2008 elections, Mr. Acheampong’s insulting behavior, rudeness and arrogance as a political activist directly led to his removal as a lecturer in Communication Studies at The African University College of Communications.
Mr. Acheampong in recent times has insulted and denigrated residents of Kumasi and the countryside, by his “infamous” “cocoase kurasenii” outburst. Mr. Acheampong again, just last week, unprovoked, has described the NPP Flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo, as an untidy person and a fruitcake (mad).
