The Ghana Palaver writes that the NPP in its quest for power is ready to dine with the devil as it entered into an alliance with the infamous Italian Mafia.
“The party has agreed to give ‘contracts’ to organized international crime in return for funds, for the party’s electioneering campaign,” it said.
The paper, a mouthpiece of the ruling National Democratic Congress, says its investigations indicate that the Italians who visited the country this year and claimed to be members of Berlusconi’s party are indeed high-ranking members of the Italian Mafia.
The Mafia have, reportedly been sending funds to the NPP using a most highly placed official of the Italian Embassy in Accra and flowing through the diplomatic bag of the mission.
The NPP, according to the story, on a couple of occasions used a decoy as was the case in which Kufuor’s wife, Aba, travelled to Canada where she met with high-ranking members of the Mafia and returned with thousands of dollars.
The Mafia network, the paper says, includes the collection of funds from a base in Lome, Togo, where the dollars are changed into CFA francs, moved up through the high seas and delivered at Tema Harbour.
