The Ashanti Regional Chairman for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Bernard Antwi Boasiako, has taken some leading members of the Interparty Resistance Against New Voters Register to the cleaners, describing them as "political sell-outs".
Citing seasoned Journalist, Kwesi Pratt, who is a strong member of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), as the first example, he accused him (Pratt) of having taken leave from his party to join John Mahama’s campaign team.
His assertion is based on the fact that Mr Pratt, who is also the Managing Editor of the Insight Newspaper, joined the interparty demonstrators to kick against the decision of the Electoral Commission (EC) to compile a new voters’ register for the 2020 general elections, contrary to the alleged decision taken by his party [CPP] to support the EC's decision.
Speaking on Okay FM’s "Ade Akye Abia" Morning Show, Chairman Wontumi, as he is affectionately called, indicated that the seasoned journalist would have been suspended if he was a member of the ruling party.
“Ask Kwesi Pratt for me, so the interparty demonstration he joined, did he join in the capacity of CPP or he is no longer a member of CPP? So, this is what Uncle Kwesi Pratt is doing to Kwame Nkrumah’s CPP . . . he has now joined John Mahama’s NDC . . . is he on leave to work for John Mahama?” he quizzed.
“If Kwesi Pratt was a member of the NPP, I would have called for his suspension immediately. Your own party’s General Secretary, Kwabena Bomfeh says the stance of CPP is to support the EC to compile new voters’ register and Kwesi Pratt decided to join a demonstration contrary to the position of his party,” he stated.
The outspoken NPP stalwart later turned his firing cylinders on the Chairman of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Bernard Mornah for his role in the interparty protest marches.
“As for Bernard Mornah, he has been following John Mahama to collapse his party, PNC; a party which has been in power before. Bernard Mornah behaves as if he is toying with the destiny of the party; he behaves as if he is not serious due to certain utterances and the kind of hat he wears. It is as if he is joking with PNC; he has collapsed the party,” he chastised.

This rotten mouth, Kwasi Pratt is just a political pimp. He’s a failure everywhere he goes.
Wontumi de3, gy*mii nkoaa. Npp is feeling the heat now for their wrong move they have been taking. What about Kwaku Baako who also speaks for NPP. We know where wontumi stays. his days on earth are numbered. He will not live to see the elections
Some people like Kwesi Pratt has no quality in himself to organize anything. He is always carried on the shoulders of others to identify with their position.He has abandon CPP to seek greener pasture with NDC.
If you know how much this guy is earming from his solidarity with ndc you will not talk by heart. Real cash man. I mean cash.
This wuntumi guy will definitely die if npp lose this years election, which they will lose anyway, looking at the way he behaves, this guy will either go mad or die. He thinks npp is his personal property and speaks like someone who hasn't been to school. He must wait and see the power of the people))
Those whom the gods wish to destroy....they first make them go mad......Wontumi is really gone banana's upstairs..... You claim to have given them the go ahead and that will have to make noise....now what then is your problem who joins the demo and who doesn't join? Is Pratt and Kwaku "I KNOW IT ALL" Baako not in CPP? Has Kwaku resigned to join the NPP? Hypocrite....
Empty barrels make the most noise
What about Kwaku Baako who also speaks for NPP. We are all hypocrites.
Kwesi Pratt had never been objective and honest about discussing national issues dispassionately. He speaks to very important national discourse as if he is only talking to fill his stomach, which he puts at the disposal of his paymasters. Quite often when he loses focus he turns to be populist and plays the socialist card paying homage to the old glory days of Nkrumah's CPP. In sum, Kwesi is a dishonest intellectual who puts his stomach before the national interest. If we Ghanaians want to know a real patriot, then, we have the advantage to appreciate how Mr. Kwame Mpiani constructively criticizes his own party, the NPP.
Na today!!
