A presidential aide, Stan Dogbe has taken a swipe at Ursula Owusu for defending Nana Addo\u2019s \u201call die be die\u201d comment, alleging that she is courting cheap popularity to lobby for a ministerial appointment should Nana Addo became President.<\/p>\n
Spokespersons of the opposition New Patriotic Party have sought to explain the rationale behind their leader’s declaration, insisting there was no need for him to apologise.<\/p>\n
Apart from the aggressive defense some party executives have put up for Nana Addo\u2019s potentially explosive comments over the last one week, the campaign team has launched into overdrive with the printing of T-shirts with the bold inscription of \u201cALL DIE BE DIE\u201d.<\/p>\n
On Monday, February 14 edition of Metro TV\u2019s Good morning Ghana, Ursula Owusu, a staunch member of the Nana Addo campaign team was spotted proudly wearing one of the T-shirts. This conduct has however drawn strong condemnation from members of the Mills administration.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Citi News, Stan Dogbe questioned the prudence of Ursula Owusu wearing a T\u2019 Shirt with the inscription \u201call die be die\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs for Ursula she thinks that being boisterous and overly supportive of whatever Nana Addo says whether good or bad is what would give her the popularity that she requires to win her parliamentary seat or get her a ministerial appointment in Nana Addo\u2019s government. I am sorry Nana is nowhere near the Presidency in 2012 or 2016 and she ought to realize that this country would have to remain stable before they come back to power\u201d.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Ms Owusu has dismissed the criticisms from the Presidency, insisting that there was nothing wrong with the T-shirt she displayed on Metro TV Monday morning. Ms Owusu rather accused Stan Dogbe of being the person who is scheming to win cheap popularity and recognition in the Mills administration.<\/p>\n
She urged Stan Dogbe to show some respect to Nana Addo who fought against the brute dictatorship of the AFRC and PNDC under former President Rawlings\u2019 rule.<\/p>\n
Ms Owusu added that her support for Nana Addo\u2019s comments is in support of the call by the party\u2019s flagbearer to be bold and defend their right in the 2012 elections, adding that the NPP will not succumb to the intimidations of the NDC government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
