Presidential aide and aspiring Member of Parliament (MP) for the Ningo Prampram constituency, Sam George will not engage in a media war with incumbent MP, Enoch Tei Mensah despite the latter�s attacks on him. E.T. Mensah who is one of Ghana�s longest serving MPs, earlier described Sam George as �naive and power drunk� after he submitted his nomination forms to contest him in the NDC parliamentary primaries on November 7. According to him, he was disappointed by some comments made by Sam George, a man he once groomed and helped in life. �God should have mercy upon this boy. A hand that has fed you before, if you want to bite it you have to be careful. A hand that has raised you to where you are and you feel that you can mess around. I am not sad for him but his parents; I didn�t know them from Adam. When his sister was going to be engaged by the husband in Nigeria, I supported them and I treated him like a son� he said. Speaking in an interview with citifmonline.com, the presidential aide said he will not respond to E.T Mensah�s attacks on him and his family. �I won�t engage in a media war with him. The contest is on the ground and the most important thing is that I am working very hard on the ground. I know God will fight my battles for me.� �I have apologised to my father on ET Mensah�s behalf. I have apologised to him that because of my political career he has been insulted by Hon. ET Mensah,� he further stated. ET Mensah has been in Ghana�s Parliament since 1996.
