Credible information available to the Accra Times, has revealed that, the Members of Parliament for Obuasi and Dormaa East, Hon. Edward Ennin and Yaw Ntow Ababio respectively who were perceived to be loyal to Mr. Alan John Kyerematen were defeated by Nana Akufo-Addo�s sponsored �Kitchen Boys� in the just ended parliamentary primaries. The Accra Times, had reported that constituencies such as Obuasi, Dormaa East, Abirem, Suhum just to mention a few were Nana Addo�s �enemies� because they supported his main contender, Mr. Aland Kyerematen. However, out of about ten constituencies, that Nana Addo had wanted to capture he could only manage to defeat the MPs for Dormaa East and Obuasi as his plans in the other areas could not materialize the source revealed. Even though, the aggrieved MPs, including those who retained their sets out of hardwork, refused to reveal their strategies, our source hinted that, it would take Nana Addo and his campaign team a daunting task to convince these embittered MPs to whole heartedly help him to become the President of the Republic. Our source further stated that other Alan�s supporters are waiting patiently to hear what their flagbearer would tell them, ahead of the general elections. Interestingly, it is said Nana Addo, Dan Botwe and Osafo Maafo on the eve of the Party�s parliamentary primaries stormed the Suhum Constituency to canvass support for one Mr. Bryan Acheampong. But Nana Addo�s effort to ensure that the Minority Chief Whip and sitting MP for Suhum lost the seat came to naught as the MP whipped their preferred candidate Mr. Bryan Acheampong soundly. Our source maintained that the NPP�s flagbearer hatred for Hon. Opare Ansah is simply unbelievable as a credible source close to the flagbearer said, he (Nana) would be happy if the MP lose the seat in the upcoming general elections. Many people around the Eastern Region are asking questions as to why Nana Addo kept on supporting Mr. Bryan Acheampong who is an alleged fraudster with a questionable character. In a related development, the Accra Times can reveal today that all is not well with Alan Cash and his boys within the New Patriotic Party (NPP). Pieces of information gathered from sources close to the hierarchy of the Party shows that most of the Alan boys who lost the primaries have decided to keep a low profile and watch Nana Akufo Addo�s team. Those who won their seats too are playing it safe carefully watching the campaign trail. Though Nana Akufo Addo made it clear before the elections that he never supported any candidate others believed otherwise. An Okro mouth bird whispered to the Accra Times that the Akufo Addo campaign team did not include any of the Alan boys and if the NPP want to win Election 2012 massively, �The all hands on deck� campaign should really be ALL HANDS (including Allan and his boys. The source said �this is a chance for Nana Akufo Addo to bring both factions together to enable the NPP win power. Where are the likes of Kwabena Agyapong and others who are believed to be in the camp of Alan Kyerematen? He asked. This a call to the Akufo Addo�s Campaign team to �hand over a soft palm� to the Pro-Allan boys and involve them in the activities of the party.
