Suspended founding member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe has said infrastructural development ongoing in the country under President John Mahama is reminiscent of what transpired under Ghana’s first President Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

According to him, the president appears to have put in place critical infrastructural set up for the economy to takeoff.

Speaking to Kafui Dey on GH Today on GHONE television, Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe urged the NPP not to take for granted the various projects the Mahama administration is embarking on as the country heads for the Presidential and parliamentary elections in November.

“Just like Nkrumah did, John (Mahama) is putting in place the infrastructure development that the country needs and it’s not for me to say these things, it’s up to the NDC propagandists to say.

“...I say things as they are; I will not say things that are untrue just because john is my nephew,” he stated.

The medical doctor is among a host of senior members of the elephant family who are serving suspensions. Leading the pack is the National chairman of the party Paul Afoko and its general secretary Kwabena Agyepong.

The disciplinary committee of the NPP found them guilty of acts inimical to the electoral fortunes of the party.
