The Spokesperson for the National Democratic Party (NDP), Owusu Bempah, aka, Aboa Apapo, says should members and sympathisers of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) dare their founder, Jerry John Rawlings, he would expose more of the atrocities they committed when they were in power.
According to him, the impunity exhibited by some party faithful of the NDC reached its crescendo in 2016 to the extent that the wife of former President Rawlings, Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings became the target of the party.
He said the NDP led by Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings during the 2016 electioneering campaign in the Ashanti Region, had wanted to go to Pankrono to talk to the electorates and upon reaching the Kumasi Airport, they made a request for an out-rider to enable them get to their destination on time without going through the heavy traffic jam on the Tafo-Pankrono road.
Such request to the Police, he noted, was denied, leaving them with no option than to go through the traffic jam on the Tafo-Pankrono road.
“When we got to the Kumasi Airport and called one Police Officer to give us an out-rider, one NDC big man picked his phone and called the Flagstaff House to deny us the out-rider. So, we had to drive and go through the heavy traffic jam for about three hours before getting to Pankrono”, he noted.
Such he added, is one in a million of disrespect apparatchiks of the NDC showed the family of the Rawlingses during the 2016 electioneering campaign.
Interacting with Okay FM, Monday, over Mr. Rawlings’ outburst on the former Foreign Affairs Minister, Hannah Serwah Tetteh, Owusu Bempah who is also the Public Relations Officer of the Ghana Gas Company Limited said the former President’s rant was apt, daring to expose more of the impunity faithful of the NDC exhibited when they were in power.
Mr. Rawlings addressing some NDC cadres and activists at a Town Hall meeting at the Arts Centre in Accra on Saturday, said he would have grabbed any chance to campaign against Hannah Tetteh who was then contesting the Awutu-Senya West constituency seat on the ticket of the NDC.
According to Mr. Rawlings, the former Foreign Affairs Minister showed disrespect to his wife, Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings, by squeezing her hand during a handshake at an independence anniversary parade gathering.
Such he noted, is one out of several gross disrespect exhibited by the former Foreign Affairs Minister towards her wife at high profile events. Ever since Mr. Rawlings brought the matter to the fore of the public, he has received some bashing from a cross section of the NDC fraternity.
But Owusu Bempah commenting further on the matter said Mr. Rawlings was more charitable to Hannah Tetteh, promising to expose more of the impunity exhibited by some faithful of the NDC if they dare him.

This is very funny!!!! 19 years in power, bad road network and you dare complain about traffic? I don't like political vendetta but, it is fair for them to endure the traffic. We are all ordinary citizens, when the power is over, enduring a little bit of our everyday life is a good thing....reality check.... for the Rawlingses. Their reign is over, move on guys!!!!!
we the ordinary people deserve to be in traffic; you refused to build the roads after 19years knowing you can always call for outriders. it serves you right
So Hannah Tetteh has monkey hands? Heiiiiiiiiiii, oyiwaaaaaaaa. Squeezing Nana Konadu's hand till she started groaning? I am sure Hannah Tetteh is a boxer. Oh Papa Jay, as for this it is too much of exaggeration. Is Nana Konadu 5 year old girl?
I can’t believe Rawlings can be sooo SSSSSTUUUUUUPIDDDDD AND PETTY!!! He squeezes someone’s BALLS!!! He has the nerve to complain about squeezing of his wife’s hand!!! Arkaah would have been grateful to God if he had had that instead of the “shoulder grab”. What bulllll ssshhiiittt!!!
Rawlings can't do nothing. If it's true that Hannah squeezed nana konadu's hand, konadu was lucky, what konadu needed was a slap in her dirty uglyy face, she is a wicked bitter woman.
This is nonsenses devil like rawlings want to tell Ghanaians that he is a saint? wht about the 3 judges he murdered? bcos of politics akuffo addo is quiet about it bcos rawlings has helped him by insulting and exposes his party secret to him and also inlaw to him so he is quiet bcos of that the party has divided. hypocrite akuffo addo is now inlaw to rawlings and he praises him even when he is given a speech. the men he ones stood to send him to jail is now a friend to him politics indeed is a dirty game and lies
