Salam Mustapha, the National Youth Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has asked Andy Kwame Appiah-Kubi the former Member of Parliament for Asante Akim North why he is refusing to fall in line with NPP’s boycott of all Media General platforms.
He noted that every member of the NPP had fallen into line by not appearing on Media General Platforms except Appiah Kubi.
His comments follow, Andy Appiah Kubi’s continuous appearances on Media General platforms despite the NPP’s boycott.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has withdrawn from all Media General’s platforms, including TV3, 3 FM, and Onua FM.
The party’s communications director, Richard Ahiagbah communicated through a press release issued on January 26 made this known.
According to the NPP, this follows months of supposed failed attempts to address concerns over biased and unprofessional conduct by Media General hosts and management.
In a letter to Andy Appiah Kubi on Facebook Salam Mustapha wrote, “How’s it that Sammy Gyamfi is/was able to lead an effective boycott of one of the biggest platforms in this country, Kokrokoo on Peace Fm and everyone fell into line that we can not? Why has everyone fallen into line except you? You’re bigger than all of us or wiser or some other reason that’s not known to us.
Let’s be conscious of the examples that we set for the younger generations coming up. If our bad actions doesn’t destroy the party now, it may in the future. For the NPP, we in leadership would not have been known persons in this country. It’s incumbent on all of us to hold the party in good stead for others to also rise. Let’s not encourage nonchalance in the party”, Salam Mustapha added boldly.
According to Salam Mustapha, Andy Appiah Kubi is spitting in the face of the NPP after his blatant disregard for the party’s directive to boycott all Media General platforms.
He added, “I hope this finds you well. I want to convey to you the feelings of many party people with regards to your absolute disregard for the party’s directive on boycotting TV3 and Media General platforms. The party took this decision after an exhaustive deliberation and it was so communicated to the world by the director of communication for the party – Richard Ahiagba.
Subsequent to that, the party had made a number of complaints to management of the institution and pointed out our difficulties to them over unfair paneling amongst others. Therefore, it wasn’t a decision out of nowhere.
All these are known to you senior yet for some strange reasons you still make appearances on the platform. Senior, if I say it’s disrespect to the party, it’s an understatement. It’s spitting in the face of the party”.
Salam Mustapha further added, “Senior, this party made you Hon. Andy Appiah Kubi, you have been youth leader like me and an MP etc. In the adversity we find ourselves, it’s not time for personal glorification but how to rebuild our party up to task. It’s this same aggrandisement that led us into the ditch”, Salam Mustapha admitted.
