There Won’t Be A Statement Of Regret For “Akyem Sakawa Mafia” Remark, Peter Otukonor.

Representative General-Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Otokunor says there is no explanation behind previous President John Dramani Mahama to apologize for purportedly supporting the “Akyem Sakawa Mafia” remark.

This as indicated by him is on the grounds that, the words have been taken outside of any relevant connection to the issue at hand by the overseeing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and its 2020 flagbearer, President Akufo-Addo.

Contending his position on JoyNews’ AM Show on Monday, Mr. Otokunor clarified that the tag was corresponding to a chose gathering of individuals in government and few out of every odd individual from the Akyem clan.

“In reality we are discussing the Agyapa Deal and how fake we think it has been, and how a gathering of individuals from the president’s family are wanting to trick a whole nation.

“Also, that is the place the tag originated from. It doesn’t mean all Akyems are ‘Sakawa’ young men” he said.

Mr. Otokunor additionally upheld prior attestations by the NDC’s flagbearer, John Mahama that President Akufo-Addo has no privilege to request a conciliatory sentiment or reprimand being called names.

He demanded that the initiative of the overseeing party since 2016 has depended on a “verbally abusing effort” thus had no motivation to grumble.

“We have had events where President Mahama has been called ‘uncouth Mahama’, which ruins his title as a President.

“On no event did President Akufo-Addo and his running mate call President Mahama a President with the word awkward in rejection,” he said.

Mr Otokunor demands that the gathering isn’t taking a gander at withdrawing the announcement, as the theme has just become an issue of public concern in light of President Akufo-Addo’s responses.

“There won’t be a conciliatory sentiment about it.

“We are just examining this in light of the President’s response. Mahama didn’t communicate that degree of outrage, and that is the reason we didn’t have everyone examining it and requiring an expression of remorse”.
