Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide, Kweku Baako Jnr, has launched a blistering attack on the General Secretary of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) describing his utterances as �highly irresponsible�. According to the renowned editor, Lawyer Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie, popularly called Sir John, has �goofed bigtime� in his allegations against the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC). Sir John on Monday accused President John Dramani Mahama of orchestrating the accident of the NPP 2012 Vice Presidential candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. At a hurriedly arranged press conference, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie blamed national security officials in connivance with the NDC for the incident. Commenting on the circumstances that might have led to the near-fatal accident, Sir John told the media that he suspects foul play by the incumbent government because according to him, the accident occurred at the President�s hometown, Bole. Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, was involved in a close fatal accident on the Bole Bamboi road in the Northern Region on Sunday. Two of the tyres of his brand new Toyota Land Cruiser V8 in a convoy reportedly burst on the way, compelling the vehicle to somersault several times resulting in the accident. The former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana was airlifted to the Lister Hospital in Accra and has since been recuperating at his residence at Kanda.
