A former member of the New Patriotic Party, Dr. Nyaho Nyaho Tamakloe, has, for the first time, given reasons behind his exit from the party, amidst throwing his support behind NDC’s John Mahama.
At a joint press conference held with Brigadier General (Rtd) Joseph Nunoo-Mensah, on perceived corruption amongst public officials, Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe said that he had to abandon his party because of his nephew, John Dramani Mahama.
“My sister Joyce Tamakloe married E.A Mahama, so John and Ibrahim are my nephews,” he indicated.
He continued; “Being a founding member of NPP doesn’t mean I shouldn’t support my family members. Like the Akans say, adzi pa wo fie a oye. I was a member of NPP until Mahama came in the scene” Dr. Tamakloe stated, revealing the reason behind his betrayal of the party he claims to have been a founding member of.
Dr. Tamakloe, before the 2016 elections, was very critical of candidate Akufo-Addo, saying he would never be president since Ghanaians were happy with John Mahama.
He granted media interviews with several media outlets attacking the NPP and its candidate in the 2016 electioneering campaign.
Ghanaians voted massively for President Akufo-Addo, a phenomenon that hasn’t gone down well with Dr. Nyaho Tamakloe who prays for John Mahama to come back to power for familial reasons.
Dr Nyaho Tamakloe’s treacherous behaviour came to many as shocking, and for the first time, he has given reasons for it.

I am not a fan of the guy, but look at the way Ghana is if your family member have a good chance to be president wont you support him/her? Plus isnt it obvious that the Akuffo Addo we supported failed, I don't blame Nyaho tho
Gosh! I am shocked beyond words.
You are now confessing this? Too late. Remain with the ***barred word*** and his NDC. NPP will never allow you back again. Stomach tribalist politician with no principles. Very dangerous individual.
oh oh oh this mad paaaaaaaaa. this your reason please come again. a founding father going to join a rival party because of what his nephew and will he complain of family and friends govt?. since it is the doing of the Lord we are seeing all these weird reasons from a educated person. no comments about Nunoo-mensah a complete waste pipe
The wind is blown, we are beginning to see the "***barred word***" of the cock. Imagine Dr Tamakloe was the president of Ghana?
It's sad to hear that a learned man, in the person of Dr Tamakloe, is abandoning his party to support his nephew. This shows how we Africans understand the principles of democracy in relation to family ties. In Western advanced democracy, it is common to see two brothers belonging to two political parties and working in their respective parties without any family problems. In this regard, my sincere respect and kudus to the Gyinapo brothers in the NPP and NDC. It is rather unfortunate that a personality like Dr Tamakloe could not differentiate between believing in political ideologies and yet maintaining family ties, which I believe implies an inability to come to terms with having one's own opinion different from that of one's brother. And if I were to go back and analyse the stance he took against his party, you would agree with me that he messed up miserably and betrayed the position he held in the Kufuor administration. To that extent, all I can say is that men have lost their own reason.
So.all the criticism of Akuffo Addonare not based on any proper intellectual appreciation tweaaaaa Ghana big men.
