When the New Patriotic Party (NPP) needed a star witness to defend the party at the Supreme Court during the 2012 election petition, there was no whimper or clamour of ‘aduru me so’, Dr. Ayew Afriyie has satirically said as he has urged the party to reward Dr. Bawumia as flagbearer for his sacrifices.
“When we (NPP) needed someone to go to court and represent the party, we didn’t hear any ‘aduru me so’ to wit it is my turn or ‘me baa y3 aky3 to wit I’ve been in line for long”, he said as he took an indirect swipe at the campaign team of Mr. John Kwadwo Alan Kyeremanten who have been campaigning on that mantra.
Speaking on Wontumi TV via phone, the Member of Parliament for EFFIDUASE/ASOKORE Constituency stated that the elders of the NPP were convinced Dr. Bawumia should be made star witness after he had collected data and explained things to them before mounting the witness box to defend the party during the 2016 election petition.
“He matched the NDC lawyers based on the pink sheets by telling them you and I were not there”, he said referencing a major highlight of the petition.
