The General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has described the NDC Member of Parliament Afram Plains South, Joseph Appiah as a thief.
According to him, the said MP is a known criminal who is currently on the wanted list of INTERPOL for grievous crimes he committed in New Zealand and Australia.
Barely two months to the December 7 elections, the NDC withdrew the MP who was the party’s Parliamentary Candidate for the area from the contest and replaced him with Eric Osei Owusu.
The party’s decision followed an Accra High Court in August which granted an application for interlocutory injunction against Joseph Appiah Boateng.
The plaintiff Dickson Adjei Danso prayed the court to restrain the defendant from campaigning for the December polls until a final determination of case.
Reports say the incumbent MP, angered by his inability to contest the election is campaigning against his own party with seven days to the election.
But addressing a crowd of NDC supporters in Afram Plains South urged party supporters to ignore Hon. Appiah Boateng as the NDC cannot continue to work with a criminal.
“We’ve gone for documents from Interpol bearing the photos of our sitting MP, Joseph Appiah Boateng which indicates that Interpol is wants him arrested for crimes in he committed in Australia and New Zealand. NDC is not a party of thieves. So just as there’s a fight against thieves and criminals in Ghana, we NDC also will expose any thief in our midst. We will not shield a thief to represent us in Parliament. The report from Interpol made it impossible for Joseph Appiah Boateng to file his nomination for the December 7 Parliamentary election.”
Asiedu Nketia narrating further, said: “In the Interpol report, it is stated that the MP was arrested in New Zealand, furthermore he’s changed his names more than six times, all the names he’s used before are in that report. Where ever he is now, if I were him I would have remained quiet and pray that no one takes me on for entering Parliament illegally.”
He continued: “If anyone knows Joseph Appiah Boateng, he should tell him that he’s not part of the December 7 election, he should pray that someone does not haul him to court to demand that he refunds all the salaries he’s taken since becoming an MP and also being jailed. Maybe the NPP has promised him that they are going to win the upcoming election and will not jail him when they assume power, that is why he’s doing their dirty job. We wish him the best.”
Asiedu Nketia added: The university he claims to have attended abroad has come out to deny him, and so just as I have said he has a lot of cases against him and we are going to use legal means to deal with each issue one after the other.”

Can Asiedu Nketia tell us how NDC build the headquarters? Is it not through kickbacks, loots, bribes, quid pro quo deals from inflated loans and contractors? If the MP is a TH1EF is he not with the right gangs? Birds of the same feathers flock together. The hell with Asiedu Nketiah. I hope the MP returns fire.
Look who is calling who a th1ef. Is any bigger th1ef than this id10t cr1m1nal th1ef parading as a politician? How long has NDC know this MP is a ***barred word*** and wanted by the Interpol? Don't insult our intelligence place. You've the audacity and the temerity to call somebody a th1ef? Ghanaians know who are the real ***barred word*** in Ghana. We will get all the stolen money back. Enough of the BORROW, INFLATE, CREATE, LOOT, SHARE and COVER-UP.
Eeeeeiiiiii Asiedu Nketiah you are very funny. You are claiming someone is ***barred word*** and your party NDC don't like ***barred word***. Hmmmmm asem beba debe. Who are ***barred word*** than you and your president and his cronies. We are going to arrest you all after 7th December
NDC never ceases to surprise Ghanaians. The party is full of Coo men and women including Asiedu Nketia himself. You have known that your MP is a ***barred word*** and for almost four years he has been your representative in parliament while you have given him all the support. You have also had Ashie Moore as your MP for four years while you know that has served prison term in Belgium for child trafficking. You have all kinds of characters in NDC who are serious crooks and that's what President Rawlings talks about the fact that the spirit of the party is almost dead. Now you have the biggest tthhief in the nation's history leading your party as the president of Ghana. That is why we are saddled with a debt of about GHS120billion on our heads while you can boast of only GHS16 billion worth of infrastructure. It is time to pack your baggage and leave the seat of government and account for your stewardship.
The t.h.i.e.f has been NDC party's MP all these while... since when did c0rrupt NDC become aware of the MP being a t.h.i.e.f? T.h.i.e.f.man sees t.h.i.e.f.man....
Asiedu Nketia, you are very silly. You taliking of Interpol looking for the PM. You know where he can and will be fond. If you meant well. why do you not direct the police to the consttuency to arrest the MP.
Mr. Asiedu Nketia, you and Mahama are more t-h-i-v-e-s than this youngman
So how long has the NDC know that their own MP was a wanted man on Interpol list and had no University degree, the Ghana Police released this information to you but you kept it to yourselves and now that he is allegedly working against you, you are singing? God have mercy on our Country.
Asiedu Nketia it takes one t-h-i-e-f to know another. NDC as a party is full of t-h-i-e-v-es. Change is coming.
