Spokesperson for former President Jerry John Rawlings and a Deputy General Secretary of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Kofi Adams, has lashed out at the Convention People\u2019s Party (CPP), accusing the Nkrumaist party of always looking for \u201can opportunity to align itself with other parties,\u201d instead of re-focusing and re-inventing ways of making the party attractive to Ghanaians just like the CPP Ghana\u2019s first President, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah bequeathed to them.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026they are always looking for an alignment with other existing strong structures, and not thinking about rebuilding themselves,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Comparatively, the Deputy NDC General Secretary said, a cursory look at the CPP today as against that of yesteryears will lead one to safely conclude that \u201cthe passion Nkrumah used in serving his party cannot be associated with the current leaders in the CPP.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe passion, the dynamism, the vision Dr. Nkrumah used in moving the CPP, I don\u2019t think we have anybody in the today\u2019s CPP who has those same beliefs and passion,\u201d Mr. Adams stated.<\/p>\n
To him, the CPP of today is out of touch with reality and does not represent anything, adding that when one listens to them carefully, \u201cyou would not be able to figure out what they represent.\u201d<\/p>\n
Contributing to a panel discussion on \u201cKokrokoo<\/b>\u201d on Peacefm<\/b>, he disclosed that two major political parties had sprung up from the CPP and despite their activities being unknown to Electoral Commission, they are very strong on the grounds politically.<\/p>\n
Amidst chuckles, Mr. Adams revealed the names of the two \u2018unknown\u2019 political parties as \u201cCockerel-Umbrella and Cockerel-Elephant<\/b>.\u201d<\/p>\n
He lauded Dr. Nkrumah for making provisions for the expansion of electricity supply and the development of the country in areas such as Education, Housing, Roads, etc before his unfortunate overthrow. <\/p>\n
Mr. Adams said his expression of commendation is borne out of the fact that despite the challenges faced by Ghana\u2019s first President during his tenure, he was able to project the country to be the first trail blazer of African liberation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
