Former General Secretary aspirant of the New Patriotic Party, Musah Superior, has slammed a cousin of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo over his reaction to heightened calls for a reshuffle in government.
Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, a senior member of the ruling party New Patriotic Party amidst public calls for the president to reshuffle his appointees, sought to question the basis of the calls in a Facebook post.
“It is as if a reshuffle will suddenly end the war in Ukraine, bring down inflation and make the cedi stronger than the dollar,” Gabby wrote in a Facebook post.
Responding to Mr Octhere-Darko, who is said to be powerful within the corridors of government, Musah Superior has described his statement as insensitive and highly condemnable.
According to Musah Superior, the NPP, as a party seeking to retain power in 2024, must respect the concerns of ordinary party persons instead of passing commentaries against legitimate concerns.
“This is the most insensitive statement by this gentleman.
“And I condemn it in no uncertain terms. To win 2024, we must be bold to challenge these posturings. We must respect the views, concerns of the ordinary Party people and stop these needless commentaries,” he stated in a Facebook post.
There have been growing calls on President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to remove some individuals from his government over inefficiencies.
One of the key targets of the campaign for the president to conduct a reshuffle is the Minister for Finance, Ken Ofori-Atta.

Musah Superior has now found his voice. After Gabby paid him to deny Kwabena Agyepong, he has now realized he was used and dumped. Now he wants to be objective again.
The interesting thing is that NPP supporters who mean well for the party are not in power. Today it's becoming increasingly difficult to defend the government of akuffo Addo. You listen to radio and television stations discussing current news and you see NPP commentators struggling to answer simple questions posed to them. However intelligent you are it's difficult defending what everyone sees to be wrong. Today government appointees/ party communicators cannot convince anybody. When you speak, they will hear but won't listen. It's like all the efforts kufour and his appointees made to make the NPP a vibrant and popular choice of Ghanaians have been dismantled by Akuffo addo and his appointees culminating in all sorts of people openly insulting the president on tv and radio. We never saw people insulting Kufuor like we are seeing . Today appointees are in a competition of who can grab more, and they do it openly and the appointing authority seems to be helpless. You ask yourself whether the akuffo Addo we all heard of is same person we are seeing now. Am tempted to believe he was overrated, he doesn't come anywhere near where we thought him to be. Rather unfortunate.
You are right Musah Superior.You are the kind of people who should lead NPP going forward.Thanks for your honest and bold opinion.
