A pro National Democratic Congress (NDC) Group calling itself Action Movement have made claims that Editor of the Al-hajj newspaper, Alhaji Iddrissu Bature, can not travel to Togo because he is wanted for criminal offences.
Addressing the media on Tuesday, June 13,2017, spokesperson of the group, Kodzo Hamenya Keglo speaking descended heavily on Alhaji Bature for his recent verbal attacks against the founder of the NDC.
“The Action movement has noted with dismay the unprovoked attack on our founder by Alhaji Bature on Adom TV last Monday, what has the founder Jerry John Rawlings said that we have not seen in this country in JM’s 4 years administration?” he queried
The Former host of Alhaji and Alhaji responding to comments made by Former President Rawlings in his June 4th speech last week described Jerry John Rawlings as a corrupt and dishonest personality.
Alhaji Bature said Rawlings had no problem taking $5m from a ‘thief’ like former Nigerian military leader Gen Sani Abacha, but instead is always lecturing others about corruption.
The comments which did not go down well with the group have dared Alhaji Bature to come out and tell Ghanaians why he cannot travel to Togo again. Is it the case that he is wanted for criminal offences? he quizzed
The group further encouraged President Rawlings to continue criticizing the party until the corrupt elements in the party are cleansed.
“We in the action movement are calling on the founder to continue from where he left off in Wa and Ashiaman, the founder must continue with the momentum in that regard. In order for the party to be cleansed of all the corrupt elements. The founder should not waste any moment of his time on elements such as Bature who are bent on destroying the party.” He added
