However, the statement also represents the views of majority of leadership. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019One of my core responsibility is to make my office active. How do I make my office active by sitting down and not contributing to what is going on? If anyone is talking about job description, then he does not know what he is talking about\u2026I am not saying my Communications Director is ignorant but if anybody says that, the person is probably ignorant and doesn\u2019t know what he is talking about.\u2019\u2019     <\/p>\n<p>He reiterated that the commissioners are not working together and that should be the worry for people to be talking about instead of focusing on his statement. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019We have not indicated those who are supposed to speak or not to speak\u2026You don\u2019t expect me not to address an issue that comes to my table as a politician,\u2019\u2019 he stated further.   <\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019I am the National Treasurer and I am stating my position categorically. A large section of leadership share in my opinion,&#8217;\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 32 updated by: 32 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/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>General News of Saturday, 16 December 2017 Source: rainbowradioonline.com 2017-12-16 Akani Adams issues a statement calling for the suspension of the EC chair National Treasurer for the People\u2019s National Convention (PNC), Akani Adams has slammed the National Communications Director of the party over his claims that, he [Akani] was incapable of issuing a statement over [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":447573,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-447572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-local-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>My Communications Director may be &#039;ignorant&#039;
