Accra The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said it will take appropriate action to prevent the re-introduction of the Association of Committees for the Defence of the Revolution (ACDR) into work places. A statement signed in Accra by Mr N. Adu Kwabena-Essem, the Party's Press Secretary, said the NPP will "not sit back unconcerned for the NDC to push the clock back to the lawless days of the PNDC". The statement is in reaction to a story in the Friday, May 2-8 edition of the 'Weekend Statesman', based on a letter signed by Nii Adjei Boye-Sekan, an MP and a presidential staffer, declaring a major reorganisation of work place ACDRs. The NPP noted that the ACDR, which allegedly "killed innocent demonstrators in cold blood", is only a camouflage for the CDR which was an integral part of the PNDC's so-called "revolutionary" cadre groups and "has no legal status in our state institutions under the 1992 constitution". It said the fact that the Association is being run by a presidential staffer who is paid from state funds makes it appear like the government continues to finance it from state funds.
