A Deputy General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), lawyer Obiri Boahen has indicated that the party would have sanctioned Sammy Gyamfi, the National Communication Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for insulting the Speaker of Parliament if he was a member.
His comments come on the back of Sammy Gyamfi’s attacks on Tamale South MP, Haruna Iddrisu and Asawase MP, Muntaka Mubarak, saying the duo “brazenly defied the leadership of the party and betrayed the collective good for their selfish interest.”
His accusation came after the NDC MPs on Parliament’s Appointments Committee approved Defence Minister-designate, Dominic Nitiwul and later approved three other rejected Ministers-designate when they were brought before the House.
Reacting to this, Obiri Boahen noted that the NPP would have suspended or expelled him if he was a member of the party.
“If Sammy Gyamfi was a member of the NPP, he would have been suspended or sacked from the party. If He was a member, we would have punished him,” he was quoted by rainbow radio.
