Mr. Jake Otanka Obetsebi Lamptey, Chairman of the New Patriotic Party Campaign Committee, says Nana Addo Danwkah Akufo-Addo does not smoke or drink alcohol, let alone take hard drugs as alleged by his opponents.
He said claims that Nana Addo is a hard drug user is a lie by the opposition to malign him, describing it as one of the many lies told about the party’s flag-bearer because it is the only way of attacking him.
Jake was addressing party followers at Sunday’s national campaign rally at Kasoa in the Central Region to officially outdoor Nana Akufo-Addo as the presidential candidate.
“They say that this man is doing drugs, that he is a drug taker. Now hear the truth, he is not a drug taker. Not only is he not a drug taker, Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo does not even smoke cigarettes, he doesn’t even drink alcohol and then you want to lie about him.
“They are going to use lies and lies and lies. Everyday for ‘thiefman’ but today, you will hear the truth about who is Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo.”
Jake who proceeded to relate a splendid CV of Nana Addo; his political lineage, education, professional and political careers, said the other time it was a question of whether Nana Addo was a lawyer or not.
“They say in politics you have to develop the skin of the elephant, that people are going to talk, talk, talk about you that you must grow the skin of the elephant so you can feel it. They also say that everyday for ‘thiefman’, one day for master. The man that insha Allah we have chosen to be our flag-bearer is a man who has been suffering from lies and lies and lies, because they know that the only way that they can attack him is by lies.
Jake said Nana Addo was born into the true NPP (UP) tradition that fought the white man because of dictatorship and remains opposed to any form of dictatorship no matter which quarters it comes from.
“We have always been committed to the good of Ghanaians. Nana Addo was born into this tradition, which is why as soon as he returned to Ghana,…since that time instead of committing himself to making money, and he has had plenty of chance for that, he has devoted himself to doing something for his people, for the people of Ghana. Every single time over the last almost 40 years that we Ghanaians have been confronted by dictatorships, it is Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo who has been in the leadership of the opposition to the dictatorship. It is Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo who has been one of the major leaders in making sure that today we have multi-party democracy in this country.”
Jake said if Nana Addo says he believes in Ghana (his slogan for Election 2008), “He is not just saying words, his life has been a demonstration of the man who believes in Ghana and believes in Ghanaians” and their right to develop the nation by their own free choices.
