The Progressive People’s Party (PPP) has dared the brother of the late John Evans Atta Mills to go ahead and expose any skeletons he claims he knows about in Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom’s closet if he has any such dirt on the party’s flag bearer.
“If we are going on an exposing spree, let him (Samuel Atta Mills) bring it on,” General Secretary of the PPP Murtala Mohammed told Class News’ Atiewin Mbillah-Lawson in an interview.
The PPP’s challenge is in response to threats made by Mr Atta Mills in an interview on 12Live on Class 91.3FM on Monday, September 19, to expose the skeletons in Dr Nduom’s closet if he kept asking questions about the death of Professor Mills.
Mr Mohammed had earlier at a rally called on the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) to make the autopsy report of Professor Mills public if they had no hand in his death.
Mr Mohammed’s comments came within the same week Dr Nduom, at a rally in Cape Coast, had said some NDC officials put on a public show of sorrow with Prof Mills’ demise but privately rejoiced over his passing, saying it had paved the way for their electoral triumph in 2012.
In response, Samuel Atta Mills told Class News: “Now what Papa Kwesi Nduom [needs to do] – and I’m sorry to call him Papa Kwesi Nduom – is, he needs to explain to Ghanaians why he changed his name from Joseph Yorke to Papa Kwesi Nduom. Look, the fact that we are peaceful doesn’t mean that you can take us for a ride. Papa Kwesi Nduom, this is a warning to him, he needs to shut up about always asking questions about who killed Prof. Now if he keeps on saying that then it means he has some information. If he keeps on doing that his clan will have to come and explain to our clan what happened. My advice to Papa Kwesi Kwesi Nduom is this: ‘If you don’t want a dog to lick you in the face, you don’t play with it.’ I don’t know why Paa Kwesi Nduom is making it his crusade. If he doesn’t shut up about that, I will make it my project [to expose him]…,”
In reaction to Mr Atta Mills’ threat, Mr Mohammed said the PPP stands by its demand for the autopsy report to be made public and dared Mr Atta Mills to go ahead and carry through his threat.
“We are giving him the go-ahead to expose [Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom]; the reason is that there is nothing to expose. Again we have a press release to that effect to explain what they claim as name change. There is nothing like name change - the same Yorke is Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom. Fantes have traditional names or local names and other names. …I don’t know what they are going to expose… We say the party has given him the go-ahead to expose Dr [Nduom]. Apart from being the former president’s brother, what do you know about him (Samuel Atta Mills)? We have people like Dr [Nduom] who have achieved big in this world and you think you can teach him common sense? We know they come from Otuam, nobody knows Samuel Atta Mills in Elmina, and he will lose that election. If that is the reason why he is coming at Dr [Nduom], we will expose him the more and we know when his father came to Elmina. If we are going on an exposing spree, let him bring it on,” Mr Mohammed threatened.
“…I was the one who made that request… The founder of NDC was the first person to tell us this story. Anita Desosoo also said the same thing. Anyidoho said he was going to speak at the right time; [there are] rumours all over the place about how Mills died and what killed him as the first citizen of the land. The PPP is demanding they produce the autopsy report…”

I don't see the logic of this change of name this Samuel Atta Mills is talking about. Every African has his/her African name giving to him/her at the first week celebration of our birth. However, we have baptismal name of a western first name and African surname so I don't get him. If he was named Papa Kwesi Nduom but used Peter John York to school does it mean Papa Kwesi Nduom is not his name? He has chosen to dump the western name for his ancestral name and that one too is a problem with the ndc? Why are these people so st*pid like that?from head to toe the same characters like they all twins. Ooooh ndcfuo mo'agyimi dodo.
We will expose akuffo addo . His real name is William. Lol
I will expose papa kwesi nduom. His real name is Yorke. .... hahaha haha. WTF. Ndc and comedy
What will the PPP gain from this fight with the Mills family? Is this too an election issue? Will this fight make the family vote for the PPP? I don't get it.
Murtala Mohammed if you need an autopsy report to do your failed campaign then go kill your father and use his. No wonder, You got employment as a general secretary to be paid by Ndoum why won't you defend you pay.
Better ***barred word***, Dr. Paa Kwasi and his political party members are right to know WHAT KILL PROF. MILLS. The I care for you man. If he said he CARE FOR GHANAIANS why wont his DEATH be CARED by ordinary Ghanaian. CHANGE IS COMING, CHANGE IS COMING. Im disappointed by Prof. Mills brother F.O.LISH statement he parading himself with.
The outsider who wept more than the bereaved. Dr. Nduom stop this . It does not fit your status.
CHIEF ICON STOP YOUR VEILED NDC PROPAGANDA. BE BOLD AND STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN. ARE YOU SAYING BECAUSE WE ARE CONTESTING ELECTIONS , THE RECORD SHOULD NOT BE SET RIGHT. ?
Just Imagine how disgracefully two practical adults who are supposed to be finding means and strategies to close unemployment gaps by utilizing their technical brains in creating jobs for citizens are displaying unprofessional ethics of leaderships. What jobs will the autopsy of our late great man creates ? And What value will the past revelations of PPP guru Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom bring to Ghanaians. It`s an election year and all you can do is act cat and mouse series ,I rest my case for all to judge . Ghanaians has to picture what the status of their futures in the next four years will be like ,if they begin to set visions they will never end up making wrong LEADERSHIP nominations and we won`t have to be using our media platforms for peace announcements instead of investments attractions for jobs increasements . Ghanaians should go for a leader whose MANIFESTO aims at implementing their HUMAN RIGHTS ,someone who believes in FOOD $ Shelter for all. It`s their RIGHTS already though ... Hmmm i think i have to paused to breath cos if i say i will go on ,i won`t increase my success ..Wait for next reply
