The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said it may be forced to respond to the verbal attacks and insults Mr Koku Anyidoho of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has been hurling at its vice-presidential candidate Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
Mr Anthony Karbo, a Deputy Communications Director of the NPP, sounded the warning.
Mr Anyidoho has continually attacked Dr Bawumia, once describing him as a “pathological liar”, especially following claims by the former Second Deputy Governor of Ghana’s central bank that there were some 76,000 Togolese on Ghana’s voter register.
Over the weekend, at an NDC rally in Kumasi, he further described Dr Bawumia in Hausa as “Mutum Banza”, to wit a useless person or a nonentity.
But Mr Karbo has indicated that the NPP and Dr Bawumia have had enough of the attacks from Mr Anyidoho, hence, the party would soon respond in equal measures.
“We are ready for Koku Anyidoho, because it is only in this country that he thinks he can continuously attack Dr Bawumia and go scot free. We will respond and the President will take the full responsibility for the actions that we are going to take in respect of these attacks on Dr Bawumia. This is not because we think he’s a god or an angel; we are all doing politics but when the attacks turn personal, it becomes a cause for concern.”
He added: “We have a lot of arsenal to use to attack the person of President Mahama, but we’ll not go that way of insulting him. I don’t agree with his corruption, his incompetence, and his greed, but it doesn’t mean that I will take this argument to a point that I will insult the person of the president. Koku Anyidoho should know that these incessant attacks on Dr Bawumia can create a big problem for him. We are advising him to desist or we’ll direct our attack at the president. We are tired of Koku Anyidoho’s buffoonery.”

dont waste ur energy on those morons in the ndc. leave them to ple like me and we will handle them. focus on our campaign message and dont let them distract u. ple like me who are not able to get media attention to say our minds can only come here and deal with those bastards. at least their followers are here to convey the insults to them. they (ndc) knows what is lie but will never tell us what the truth is. for example, they are still not able to tell us the simple truth about what killed Mills and that alone will continue to haunt. they have no message thats why they have chosen to the path of insult which is their birth right but dont respond. we will do it here for you. we all have a role to play to bring the change we are clamoring for. that us3sl3ss anyidoho is no match for me
ATOPAHENE JOHN FORD MAHAMA IS THE GREATEST JULOR AND ASHAWOBANZA GHANA EVER HAD AS A PRESIDENT. AS FOR THAT ONE HE IS THE WINNER. WITH HIS AND HIS BROTHER IBRAHIM'S BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF INVESTMENTS IN DUBAI AND 23 CHILDREN AND COUNTING, NO ONE CAN CHALLENGE MAHAMA AND HIS GANG OF NDC JULOR. THAT IS WHY IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR GHANAIANS TO VOTE JULOR MAHAMA OUT IN DECEMBER 2016. INSHA ALLAHU!!!
@abufusem. Bro don't mind this worthless people who only want power to settle their debt. I no go happen in this our Ghana.
What makes the likes of Karbo and the NPP think that they are more human than others. Even in your so called cautioned statement you referred to the president as incompetent. Anyidoho calls your dishonest academician a pathological lier and you say is an insult. So the big question is what is the difference between referring to the president as incompetent, a ***barred word***, etc. and the 1ngrate running mate as a pathological lier and ***barred word*** and you crying. Bawumia is not only worthless but a disgrace to northeners and the Ghanaian academic space."Abufusem akwaa kwa"
There is no need to respond. They've lost the debate on real issues so they are taking to insult. Ghanaians are resolved and will kick them out. Aposo!...they go release the grip!
