The National Youth Organizer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Opare Addo has dared the Ningo Prampram, Samuel Nartey George over allegations the MP has made against him.
According to him, there is no truth in the write-up Mr. George has put out in the public domain. .
“He’s lying and I challenge him to mention names. Which people did I send cameras to for endorsement? During the election, I never stepped foot in parliament. He is lying, I didn’t send anyone. If someone went there then I did not know. He should have mentioned names. If I want an endorsement, Sam George isn’t the one I will go for. Which credibility does he have?
“He can bring it on and I’m ready to meet him in the gutters. His colleague MPs which one respect, I will respect him if he respects himself. I have said it, he can go and burn the sea. I have given him money before. In 2016 I gave him money for his contest. How dare he warn me? Who is Sam George to warn me? Aside big English, what else can he do? Can he stand in my face? I won’t speak to this nonsense,” the NDC National Youth Organizer angrily replied.
Mr. Opare Addo on December 10, 2022 was elected for the second time as the National Youth Organizer for NDC.
He beat his competitor Mr. Yaw Brogya Genfi by obtaining 533 votes and retained his seat as National Youth President for NDC.
However, in a series of interviews on radio and television Mr. Addo has embarked on a move to respond to his critics in which the Ningo Pramparm lawmaker was not spared.
In a rebuttal the MP also warned Mr. Addo and recounted the a number of help he has offered him in his first election aa the national youth organizer of the opposition NDC.
Meanwhile, in campaigning ahead of the just ended National Youth Congress, the MP said he was convinced that Brogya Genfi was the best among all the aspirants for the position of National Youth Organizer.
Below is the full statement from Sam Nartey George
I have watched clips of George Opare Addo making asinine and reckless comments on an Accra based radio station.
Let me serve notice to him that others he attacks may choose to be silent but not Sam George. This should be the last time he goes anywhere and runs his loose mouth on my person.
Today, he calls me an influence peddler! I do not blame him. When in 2008, I wrote all his campaign speeches because he was not connecting with his electorates, I guess I was peddling influence? What has he achieved that I would be jealous of?
He attempted to go to Parliament and lost miserably at a time the NDC as a party was most attractive and won the 2008 elections. Is it his failure I would be envious of? When in 2015, 2016, 2019 & 2020 I went up against the establishment both within and outside our Party and WON all those elections, where were you?
After you bragged that you would win a landslide victory, we all saw the contrived small margin you won with after disenfranchising persons whose names were on the register. The results are testament that you have not done as well as you delude yourself into thinking. The illusions of grandeur you create in that insipid mind of yours are creations of your weak mind. An intelligent person would have started a proper introspection to see how your landslide became a narrow escape.
When you sent a camera crew to Parliament seeking endorsement of my Colleague MPs, were they also influence peddlers? You claim to be a democrat but are pained that others have exercised their fundamental democratic right of choice? Is everything okay with you?
And by the way, those who really fund our party, NEVER go and sit on radio and TV to run their mouths. Their wealth has made them discreet. As you brag about what you and your family have done for the NDC, be quick to add the numerous contracts the NDC has given to your family and let’s do a balancing act and see who owes who a debt of gratitude. Like our Elders say, ahwene pa nkasa.
This is my initial response and warning to you to keep my name out of your mouth. The next time, I may not be this charitable. You have been warned!”.
