Bole NPP communication team suspends outspoken member

 

 

The communication team of the New Patriotic Party in the Bole constituency has suspended Mr Awudu Rafiu for lamenting about how projects started by the erstwhile Mahama administration is being left to rot.

In a letter signed by the constituency communication officer for the party in the Bole-Bamboi constituency Mr Akati Mahama, even though Awudu Rafiu has stopped attending radio programs and meetings of the team since 2017,it is now official that he has officially been suspended indefinitely from the team after his written lamentations.

Mr Akati in the letter of suspension has however failed to confirm or deny whether there was a rural technological facility center project that was started by the Mahama administration along the Bole cemetery road that has been left to rot.

Mr Akati rather chose to touch on the teacher training college using documentation as the basis why the project has been left to rot since the NPP government relys much on documents to continue projects started by previous administration.

Mr Akati further went on to emphasized much on ownership of Bole based Nkilgi FM instead of responding to the water issues raised by Rafiu. He thought it very wise and reasonable to speak on the ownership of the radio station without focusing on the water crisis Bole is facing for his DCE ignoring Rafius suggestion of adding an
additional solar power source to help the machines function properly.

The educational fund raised by Rafiu is of less importance to the communication team rather than attacks on the former President according to Mr Akati in his letter of suspension to Awudu Rafiu.

Many people in the NPP are condemning the suspension since the letter from the communication director is targeted at individuals instead of responding to the issues.Mr Awudu Rafiu is yet to respond to his suspension as member of the communication team of the party.

Meanwhile, the general manager of Nkilgi FM is demanding an unqualified apology from the communication director of the NPP in the Bole-Bamboi constituency for what he referred to as an attack on him and not response to what Rafiu Awudu wrote. Below is what Mr Mahama Haruna wrote on his facebook wall??????
Seriously I’m very disappointed in the NPP Communication officer for Bole- Bamboi Constituency called Raphael Mahama Akati for signing a statement full of lies. I have a problem with his statement (shared) reacting to some exposures of an NPP Communication team member in the Bole- Bamboi Constituency called Awudu Rafiu. Awudu Rafiu simply complained about projects of former President John Dramani Mahama that have been left to rot in the Bole-Bamboi constituency.

In fact I read with disgust the hollow statement which among other irrelevant issues said;

“…The said radio station Nkiligi FM 103.7 MHZ which is the source of this publication is owned by the opposition leader John Dramani Mahama of the NDC and also managed by one Mahama Haruna who is known to be an ardent supporter of the opposition leader John Dramani Mahama and also known to have switch his support he had for the NPP to the NDC since election 2012”.

This statement is unnecessary and absurd. Did I tell Awudu Rafiu to write his famous write up?

Who told Raphael Mahama Akati that Nkilgi Fm is owned by former President John Dramani Mahama? Can he show any document to prove that?

Whoever advised the NPP Commuincation Officer to engage in these lies has done him a great disservice.

The NPP Commuication Director should withdraw some of the statements in the write up or I might be compelled to let him do that.

Moreover what has my my support for former President John Dramani Mahama gotten to do with whatever Awudu Rafiu said….
