The National Communications Officer of the NDC, Sammy Gyamfi said this at a press conference the party held on Tuesday, October 5, 2019.

According to him, the listed 51 names of relatives and cronies pointed to a “classic and unprecedented” nepotism within the Akufo-Addo government.

He referred to Nana Akufo-Addo’s vow to eschew nepotism and cronyism, a pledge which he made in January 2016 ahead of the general elections.
