NDC Member of Parliament for the Lower Manya Constituency, Michael Teye Nyaunu, has stated categorically that the NDC should take the blame for the ‘defeat’ in the Ya Naa\u2019s murder trial.<\/p>\n

The outspoken MP said the ultimate blame should go to President Mills because proper steps were not taken in investigating the issue before going to court.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no qualms with the ruling of the judges. I am saying this because the judges made their ruling based on the evidence that was given them. When we (NDC) were making our campaign we pledged the electorates of this country that we were going to unravel the perpetrators of this heinous crime.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving come to power we should have re-investigated this crime and brought out fresh presentations. I disagree with people who are trying to insult the judges and the judiciary. I sincerely believe that the government did not do its homework well and the buck stops with the President\u201d.<\/p>\n

Hon Nyaunu, who is also a regular critic of the Mills administration, added that there is no hope in the intended appeal of the case by his government.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Citi FM\u2019s talk show the \u2018Big Issue\u2019 on Saturday April 2, Hon Nyaunu said the government will be wasting it\u2019s time going back to court with the same evidence, adding that the ruling will greatly affect his party\u2019s chances in the 2012 General Elections. \u201cI don\u2019t have hope in the appeal unless they have new material to inject again\u2026we should not raise the hope of our people until we are going to open the case again\u201d.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a former Deputy Attorney General and NPP MP for Nsuta-Kwamang Beposo, has called on the ruling NDC to apologize to the people of Dagbon for misleading them in order to get votes from the area.<\/p>\n

Hon Osei Prempeh noted that the challenge faced by the NDC government in the Ya Naa murder trial is due to the unnecessary politicization of the issues. \u201cThe whole thing is unfortunate. It shows how politicization of issues can bring embarrassment to a government. The NDC have scored so much political points from the death of the Ya-Na and now the truth has come to hit them in the face.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NDC ought to know that everything has an end. You can fool some of the people sometime but you cannot fool all the people all the time. They must apologize to the people of Dagbon that they have misled them and taken their votes because that is what they needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
