The NDC Minority in Parliament has also called for his immediate dismissal.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on Peace FM Wednesday, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako described the NPP Ashanti Regional Council of Elders Chairman\u2019s comments as\u00a0undiplomatic, indiscreet, unwarranted for which he must pay a price for.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>\u201cI\u2019ve never met him but from a distance I\u2019ve always appreciated him, he\u2019s an elder and anytime he\u2019s called on radio, you hear the depth, wisdom in his analysis of issues. I didn\u2019t want to believe earlier reports I\u2019d seen about his utterances until I heard the audio and I was really shocked. It really disturbed me because I think he\u2019s a fine gentleman, elderly person and a wise man. He has a unique style of going about issues when he\u2019s speaking publicly so I was really disturbed when I heard him on this matter.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He added<em>: \u201cI wish this didn\u2019t happen to a fine gentleman like Mr Ayisi Boateng, but it has happened so he must pay the price for it. It\u2019s so unfortunate, I\u2019m not sure he could even give any jobs at the Embassy, that\u2019s the responsibility of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. To be honest, to say that you\u2019ll prioritize NPP members problems or challenges and to say that NPP members are more Ghanaians than others is difficult to defend regardless of which contest you put this matter. I think this is a self inflicted casualty. I\u2019m saddened by the damage this matter has caused to Mr Ayisi Boateng\u2019s reputation. I don\u2019t know him but I\u2019ve always thought\u2026what a wise man he is. This one it\u2019s so difficult for me to reconcile. An apology earlier would have mitigated it, but he came to defend his words and I think that\u2019s what has spoiled the matter.\u201d<\/em><\/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>Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide Newspaper, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako has urged President Akufo Addo to sack Ghana\u2019s High Commissioner to South Africa, George Ayisi-Boateng, over his divisive comments.
