Dr. Nyaho Nyaho Tamakloe, a founding member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has urged the party’s running mate, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh (NAPO), to apologize to former President John Agyekum Kufuor.
This call comes in response to NAPO’s recent comments during his unveiling ceremony in Kumasi on July 9, where he asserted that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s achievements surpassed those of Kwame Nkrumah.
Speaking to 3FM in an interview on Thursday, Dr. Tamakloe emphasized the need for NAPO to apologize to former President Kufuor, recognizing his significant contributions to the country during his presidency.
“The only thing I will tell him is that he should go to [former President] J.A. Kufuor and apologise to him. That is the only person I want him [to go to]. He should apologise to Kufuor because when President Kufuor took over this country, this country was in shambles.
“He was able to straighten things. I wouldn’t even like to refer him to the demands that the CPP people are putting up. No, I am not a CPP man. I will ask him to go and apologise to Kufour. Because without Kufuor when we took over in 2000, we wouldn’t have got to where we are today.”
“…He should go to Kufuor with his hands behind him, kneel before him and beg him for that sort of statement that he has made,” he said.
