The national chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party, NPP, Freddie Blay, is an alien to the party, Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, one of the founding members has said.
According to him, if care is not taken, it will be through the current chairman, who is a former CPP member, that the Danquah, Busia, Dombo tradition will be destroyed.
The former Ghana Football Association president said, any sincere NPP member who knows how the party came about will agree with his assertion that Freddie Blay is doing the party more harm than good.
Speaking on Metro TV’s ‘One On One’ show, Monday, April 25, 2022, the former Ambassador to Serbia noted that not only Freddie Blay is an alien, but he is also corrupt and a lair.
“When he was campaigning, he promised numerous buses that he said he will bring to the party, where are they now [after he won the chairmanship]? Some people like [Freddie Blay] you don’t give them power; that is why I say Akufo-Addo has changed in a way I don’t understand,” Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe said.
He added, “Blay is his name and he was a CPP man.”
Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe recounted an encounter he had with the late General Emmanuel Erskine [of blessed memory] where he [General Erskine] asked him [Nyaho-Tamakloe] why NPP of all the parties made Blay, the national chairman.
“I said sir, it surprises me too,” he narrated.
“Blay has been the destructive element of NPP today and if we are not careful and manage him properly, the party will split into two or it will be destroyed totally,” Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe stressed.

What is Tamakloe's beef here? I believe we will be able to identify them all based on their actions. You, Tamakloe, deserted your party, the NPP, because of your familial relationship with Mahama of the NDC. And the hard-working Blay resigned from the CPP, joined the NPP, and worked his way up to lead his new party as Chairman, winning two elections to form a government. So, drawing inference from here, who is then loyal to the party, NPP, Tamakore or Blay? I just can't understand why any associate of the party called the NDC tends to underrate the intelligence of Ghanaians. I think Tamakloe should give NPP a break.
What a b1tter old f--00-1. How can this s-ad inward looking man have an ounce of respect from people. Freddy Blay is a father, uncle, and grandfather. You can disagree with him but to use such f1stateful words for him is bad. How do you expect the youth to behave? ***barred word*** man, you wish you were the national chairman. Politics is about being smart and savvy. Bit-terness and enviness will surely do you no good.
Hahahaaaa, no wonder our beloved NPP is struggling from all fronts. A party chairman who doesn't know the history of the party he's leading. In the early days of the struggle, ie 1992, 96, 2000, 2004, where was Freddie Blay. In all this Stephen Ntim was at the forefront, why will any NPP person prefer foreigner Freddie Blay to home grown Ntim. Today nobody knows the direction NPP is moving, every appointee is his or her own president in his or her office and nobody seems to be in control. Peter Ala Adjetey, Haruna Esseku, Odoi Sykes, Paul Afoko could face the presidential candidate/ president in the face and speak his mind, can foreigner Blay look at akuffo Addo in his face and tell him the truth? He can't because he's a stranger in the house. A 70 year old plus man can tell lies and still have the courage to be showing his face to the public. 275 bus per constituency promise not one has been delivered, on the good old days where people knew what they call shame, this foreigner would have stayed indoors for the rest of his life. Old man lie lie, lie lie chairman.
Doc, you forgot to say that you are a traitor.
