Politics of Tuesday, 31 October 2017Source: 3news.comDivisive comments: Freddie Blay schools Ayisi BoatengFreddie Blay, Acting Chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP)The Acting Chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) appeared surprised by the partisan and divisive comments made by Ghana’s High Commissioner to South Africa, George Ayisi Boateng. But Freddy Blay consistently insisted that he had not heard the partisan comments that have widely been condemned by a cross section of the public. The party chairman was however clear on the fact that High Commissioners are not supposed to play party politics with their work. “Missions are established not to serve partisan interest, it’s to serve the interest of this country and the people of Ghana generally,” he indirectly reminded Ayisi Boateng. Meanwhile, Mr. Ayisi Boateng has laughed off calls for him to apologise to Ghanaians over the comments.
