NPP manifesto leaks againThere is panic within the New Patriotic Party over suspicion that the party’s 2016 manifesto, that highly kept secret, may once again have been leaked to the ruling National Democratic Congress, as it happened in 2012. It is recalled that in 2012 the NDC artfully burst the NPP manifesto bubble by expropriating the theme, ‘You Matter, People Matter’. The vaulted NPP manifesto, according to a deep source, has a specific pledge to increase the daily allowance for peacekeepers involved in UN operations to US$36 (GH¢142.56) per day per officer. This, according to the NPP manifesto, will constitute a $5 increase from the current level of $31 per day, recently announced by President John Mahama on Thursday, August 11, 2016. The 2016 NPP Manifesto has been ready since it was originally scheduled to be released on Thursday, August 4.
