Former Presidential candidate of the Peoples National Convention (PNC) has described as a demotion the appointment of his successor, Edward Mahama as Ambassador-at-Large by President Akufo-Addo.<\/p>\n

Per the appointment, Hassan Ayariga stated that, Dr. Mahama is now an errand boy for the President.<\/p>\n

The PNC 2016 flagbearer has come under a barrage of attacks after accepting the appointment without recourse to the party. An ambassador-at-large is an ambassador with special duties but not appointed to a particular country.<\/p>\n

National Executives led by Chairman Bernard Mornah are considering a number of sanctions including expelling Dr. Edward Mahama from the party for not consulting them.<\/p>\n

Though the failed presidential hopeful has explained that his decision to take the appointment was in the interest of the state, the PNC said it is a big insult to them.<\/p>\n

In support, Hassan Ayariga on Adom News Tuesday said the PNC leader has brought the name of the party into disrepute for accepting to be a \u201cmessenger\u201d for President Akufo-Addo.<\/p>\n

According to him, an experience politician like Dr. Edward Mahama should not have stooped so low to accept such an errand position.<\/p>\n

His \u2018unintelligent\u2019 decision, Hassan Ayariga said could have a ripple effect on the PNC as a political party.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the leader of the party becomes an errand boy, the whole party become an errand party\u201d he bemoaned.<\/p>\n

The presidential hopeful however did not fault Dr. Edward Mahama so much because he took President Kufuor advise that \u201cit is better to be a messenger the ruling party than to be a leader of the opposition party\u201d.<\/p>\n

Hassan Ayariga called on the PNC National Executives to as a matter of urgency call an emergency meeting to expel Dr. Edward Mahama.<\/p>\n
