The suspended General Secretary of the All People’s Congress Razak Opoku has disclosed that his party stole the 2016 manifesto of the opposition New Patriotic Party.
This was revealed on 3FM’s Sunrise morning show hosted by Winston Amoah on Monday. He was reacting to obvious rift in the party as two executives declared their support for the opposition NPP, while the flag bearer is set to endorse the candidature of the governing NDC’s John Dramani Mahama.
Allegations
Razak Opoku who insists the APC manifesto was stolen from the NPP asked Winston to challenge Dr. Hassan Ayariga to deny his claims.
“Ask him how come the party manifesto that all of us decided to launch; in fact I wrote 90% of the manifesto and he wrote about 10% but on the day of the launch the manifesto was a different manifesto, it was the manifesto of the NPP ask him that.
“I can give you a copy of the exact copy of the exact manifesto that the APC was to launch. The manifesto that we launched on the Aviation Social Center is the manifesto of the New Patriotic Party. I dare you to ask him how come he was able to get that. Who stole the manifesto of the NPP for him and subsequently claim ownership to it?
Asked who leaked the NPP manifesto, Razak Opoku declined to provide answer only to insist that the host get that information from Hassan Ayariga.
When contacted for his side of the story, Dr. Hassan Ayariga was emphatic he would not respond to a sycophant.
“If you put a sycophant in your studio and want me to respond to, I will not respond”.
Earlier, Razack Opoku had laughed his disappointed presidential hopeful, Dr. Hasan Ayariga, scorning his suspension by the leader.
“Who said I have been suspended?” he asked “I thank you very much that you did not say the national disciplinary committee has made recommendations to national executive committee but rather Hassan Ayariga who thinks that running a political party is like running a pizza business, whereby somebody can just work and say I have dismissed you. Political party is not a sole proprietorship.”
Breach of Constitution
Quoting sections of their constitution, Razak Opoku maintained that all the grievance and disciplinary procedures have been breached.
“Chapter 4, page 11 of our constitution clearly spells out what the processes are. Article 14 which stipulates all the disciplinary and grievance procedures by the National Executive Committee and in dealing with allegations brought against a member has been breached.”

It is unfortunate NPPs are their own enemies, If it were not given to Ayariga from someone within the NPP, he could not had gotten it. You people should bear in mind that the party does not belong to Akuffo Addo, if you fight against him, too bad. There are others who will fight against your favourite and if a different strong party does not come and relieve Ghanaians, azaaa NDC will continue to destroy us.
I heard Razak Opoku say on a station this morning that a so-called think-tank passed on a draft copy of the NPP manifesto they have been contracted to work on the APC,who then gleefully altered parts and then presented it as their manifesto. CRIMINALITY, DECEIT AND PLAIN ***barred word*** SPONSORED BY THE NDC. JM TOASO, CONTINUE THE STEALIING, YOU END IS HITHER!!!!
the EC is right after all. politics is not concert party
If someone could sell a whole manifesto, then we can not entrust anything into their care ooooo
Ayariga is a disgrace to Ghana politics. He is not knowledgeable in all aspects politics. He is a ***barred word*** and joker but not a politician and he is doing his master's (JDM) bidding. All APC members join NPP for a drastic change in the ghanaian economy that may affect all and sundry citizen.
There are a lot of people in NPP who are fighting and praying for the defeat of Nana Akuffo Addo
the manifesto was stolen by ndc and given to ayariga to distract npp with law suits of plagiarism but he knew he was caught bcos they could not do a good job with the editing. ndc knew the content of the npp manifesto even be4 it was launched. ndc understands npp's manifesto better than their own written document. they (ndc) have no idea what they put in that manifesto rather they keep telling us what npp has in their manifesto. they stole the document and have been "chewing" it everyday. have u seen ndc campaigning on issues? their only aim is to do tribal politics and attack Nana Addo and Bawumia. there are too many moles in the npp and that is what has been ruining the parties fortune in recent elections bcos i still dont understand how this guy is president. change has come
Stealing and plagiarism are crimes punishable by law. he should be charged immediately.
As for Hassan Ayaricough,the least said about him, the better.
You are now coming to tell us. I heard you debating this on Neat FM calling Kwaku Baako and Obri Yeboah all sort of names. We are not intrested, proceed to court as u said. Shame on you. ***barred word***
