National Propaganda Secretary of the ruling NDC party and Parliamentary candidate-elect for Keta, Richard Quashigah believes what was supposed to be a �gargantuan� rally by the NPP over the weekend did not live up to its billing. Dripping with deep sarcasm in his speech, Richard Quashigah opined that �if the NDC was to hold a Greater Accra Regional rally at Mantse Agbona, the whole place will be full to capacity�. �Even Odododiodio alone can marshal our supporters (NDC) to fill the place,� he said. Reacting to Nana Akuffo Addo�s message to his supporters on the rally day that the NDC has no message for Ghanaians, Richard Quashigah said the NPP flag bearer has decided to put on a �double mask� so he would not see the good works of President Mills. He believes Nana Addo on his nationwide listening tour deliberately failed to see most of the developmental projects on-going in the country. The Propaganda Secretary challenged the opposition leader to come out and tell Ghanaians what success he (Nana Addo) chalked as a cabinet minister and a Member of Parliament; adding that if Nana Addo had consulted �men and women of wisdom� in the NPP, he would have been advised not to talk about personal records and compared himself with the sitting President, John Mills. In an interview with Xfm�s Big Bite host, Abena Asiedua Tenkorang, Richard Quashigah said Nana Addo�s quick dismissal at the rally that he is not a violent person is a clich�, adding that he (Nana Addo) has refused to apologize to Ghanaians about his infamous �All die be die� statement; saying international concerns about Nana Addo�s character discredit him to lead this nation. �We, the NDC are concerned about his (Nana Addo�s) refusal to deny the allegation of his use of hard drugs, which is a conviction not just by Ghanaians, but by the intentional community especially the Americans�Nana Addo should come out and clear the air about all this allegations mentioned against him�Ghanaians are looking for a leader who will be very clean, because we all know what narcotic drugs can do to a society.� �A man�s gift will bring him before Kings, but what will maintain him there is his character, so no matter how talented you are, if you lose character, you will lose it all,� Richard Quashigah stated. On the issues of policies, the NDC�s Propaganda Secretary dared the NPP to come out and tell Ghanaians what they (NPP) achieved in their first four years in power.
