The Convention People’s Party (CPP) has admonished the running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh to desist from comparing their party’s founder to President Akufo-Addo.
During his official unveiling on Tuesday, Dr Prempeh also known as Napo claimed that not even the achievement of Ghana’s first president Dr Kwame Nkrumah could match the records of outgoing President, Nana Akufo-Addo.

Unhappy about the comment, CPP in a statement noted that the comment is “reprehensible and unbecoming of his stature.”
The party also called for the deletion of the comment from all forums and platforms that have republished the statement.
