There is an allegation\u00a0 and so forth and which he has promptly stepped in to ask the Police to investigate ,the Police has come out with its report \u00a0and so far as I am concerned that is official, unless \u00a0you don\u2019t agree with what the Police have done \u00a0but anybody could \u00a0have his own opinion to disagree or agree with what the Police have done, and they have done their work .The next step \u00a0will be what to be done \u201c.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mr.Blay said this during \u00a0an interview with section of the media in Koforidua\u00a0 on Sunday, october 1 on\u00a0 the sidelines of Eastern Regional Youth Conference and Awards organized by the Regional Youth wing of the NPP.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mr. Blay said the leadership of the party has advised the \u00a0feuding factions to calm down .<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cFor anybody to say the party leadership should step in I don\u2019t see from which angle, how do we step in, do we interfere with the investigation assuming that is to be investigated or do we interfere with the result. What one could say behind the scene is to advise them, the protagonists and antagonists and those involved to take it easy, to be a little bit mindful of their utterances and so forth. We\u2019ve been doing that all the time but we don\u2019t come out publicly to say that but we may advise but people may take their own decisions \u201c<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He said what has happened is a lesson to \u00a0the party and government officials \u00a0on the need to jaw -jaw .<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201d I hope we are all learning from it that, It is not helpful, it detract us from what we are doing and therefore we should come together but not to say you gag everybody from talking. This is a democracy, if you feel that you have a very good point you want to make criticism that is well grounded and not frivolous why not, that is what democracy is all about, it helps us to build our nation with integrity ,openness, and truthfulness \u201c. \u2013 Kojo Ansah<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The acting National Chairman of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP)\u00a0 Freddie Blay has described the allegations of corruption and its subsequent altercations against the\u00a0 Deputy Chiefs of Staff, Francis Asenso-Boakye and Samuel Abu Jinapor by musician Kwame Asare Obeng, also known as A-Plus, as detractive to the feat chalked so far by President Akufo [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-424266","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
