The Novice And Imposter Felix Kwakye-Ofosu, Seeking Cheap Popularity

The novice and braggart school boy Kwakye-Ofosu will jump in to the TV and radio stations to talk and argue unreasonably.

Having dismissed calls by the former President Kufuor on Ghanaians to ignore the revelations contained in the Wikileaks reports he should have equally dismissed the excuse from Fifi Kwetey who tried to convince the people of Ghana that he did not say a Moslem can't rule Ghana.

If Felix Kwakye-Ofosu want us to believe in the Wikileaks reports, then we have to believe that Moslems in Ghana, as Fifi Kwetey might have said, are seen by the some of NDC Party members as people who cannot rule Ghana for a reason best known to those NDC members like Fifi Kwetey.

Useless Talk From Kwakye-Ofosu: Wikileaks report: Kuffuor, NPP being hypocritical - Felix Kwakye Ofosu

The Convener of the Research and Advocacy Platform [RAP] of the National Democratic Congress party [NDC] has dismissed calls by former President Kuffuor on Ghanaians to ignore the revelations contained in the recent Wikileaks reports since they are merely speculative.

According to him, the former President's comments clearly indicates the ?double standards and hypocrisy of the New Patriotic Party [NPP]? over the matter. Speaking on Multi TV's political talk show, Majority Caucus, Mr. Kwakye Ofosu asked ?how can a party [which] in previous times endorsed matters that were contained in Wikileaks come round this time and say that we should ignore what it is contained in the same Wikileaks US diplomatic cables simply because it projects their party in a very negative light?? According to the RAP Convener, some big wigs in the NPP especially former President Kuffuor are condemning the Wikileaks revelations because sections of it directly highlights the persona non grata status of their 2012 presidential candidate, Nana Akuffo Addo, a revelation which might impede his chances of winning power in the 2012 general elections. ..................................................................................................

This small boy, Kwakye-Ofosu thinks he can pop in anyhow anywhere and begin to talk anyhow. If there are serious matters raised in the wikileaks reports which deserve much scrutiny and attention as Kwakye-Ofosu is claiming then the NDC must start right now scrutinizing from his own party and government, because they have said a lot of worst things in the Wikileaks reports. Considering alone "A Moslem cannot be a president in Ghana" according to Wikileaks, said by Fifi Kwetey.

Kwakye-Ofosu must bear in mind that he cannot "just start to drink any time and anywhere he sees a calabash."
