A leading member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Alfred Woyome, has said the flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Akufo-Addo, had no mandate to meet UK Prime Minister, David Cameron, to talk about issues of national concerns.
According to Mr. Woyome, the UK government must exercise a greater level of circumspection with their choice of persons they discuss national issues with.
�Akufo-Addo met with David Cameron to talk about issues,- in what capacity did he meet him,� Woyome asked. �The British should be very careful about what they do. They met him as the opposition leader who has no power, right or mandate to decide anything for this country. They can contribute actually but nobody sent him there. �
The General Secretary of the NPP, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie told Citi News last Friday that Nana Addo chided Mr. Cameron for failing to appreciate the cultural, religious and legal frameworks of African countries when he threatened to cut off aid to countries that frown on gay rights.
The NDC has requested for audio evidence of the meeting, a call which the NPP has rubbished.
