He believes that the NPP Flagbearer only wanted to be heard after a long silence, but his way of comeback was awkward.<br \/>\nAccording to him, whatever the NPP flagbearer said at the Press conference was something that is common knowledge to all. He said Nana Addo\u2019s call for President Mills to go with ECOWAS is unnecessary since President Mills position has always been to stick with ECOWAS.<br \/>\nThe Presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2012 elections, Nana Akufo Addo called on President Mills to get involved and support ECOWAS and other international bodies to resolve the Ivorian crises peacefully.<br \/>\n\u201cThe President is respectfully urged to use his good offices to intervene with President Gbagbo to ensure that the will of the Ivorian people is respected as well as the position of the international community, as expressed by the ECOWAS at a meeting at which His Excellency the President was present.<br \/>\nStating the NPP\u2019s position on the Cote D\u2019Ivoire crises, Nana Akufo Addo said \u2018everything should be done to avoid the specter of Cote D\u2019Ivoire descending into the status of a rogue state whose leaders act in defiance of domestic and international law\u2019. He added that \u201cbloodshed and chaos should not be the price for an individual seeking to remain in office at all cost.\u201d<br \/>\nBut speaking on e-TV\u2019s Breakfast TV Newspaper Review, Hon. Aquinas said the noise making from the NPP is unnecessary since President Mills has not done a volte-face in anyway. He lambasted Nana Addo for failing to proffer a solution to the Ivorian crisis at the press conference.<br \/>\n\u201cI think that for some time now, people have not heard of him and he just wanted to make some statement so he could be heard but this was the wrong way to go\u2026I was listening to some NPP members on the Cote D\u2019Ivoire crises and the involvement of President Mills and it was heartbreaking,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nHe insisted that President Mills has been very consistent with his position of supporting ECOWAS in whatever decision they seem right.<br \/>\n\u201cThis shouldn\u2019t even be an argument, Mills signed the communiqu\u00e9 of ECOWAS and he still stands by what he signed. Mills has never said he is not going with ECOWAS, what he said was he wouldn\u2019t be able to commit troops because his army is over stretched and this is not the first time an ECOWAS country is not able to contribute to ECOWAS mission. President Mills has always said he will go with ECOWAS and the President that I know is not someone who says something and goes back on his words,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nSource: Beatrice Adepa Frempong<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NDC Member of Parliament for Mfantseman West, Hon Aquinas Quansah has condemned the Press conference held by the flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party, Nana Akufo Addo, describing it as inessential and pointless.
