Concerned Asante Youth Call On Asantes To “Rise Against NDC’s Evil Plans” After Dela Edem’s ‘Inhuman’ Attack On Kufuor

The Concerned Asante Youth has expressed their displeasure with the recent attack on former President John Agyekum Kufuor by a key member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Dela Edem.

A statement from the group said Dela Edem’s utterances were “Deeply hurtful and malicious accusation that disregards basic human decency.”

They, however, called on Asantes to “Rise against evil plots by the NDC,” before the December 7 general election.

“This is a wake-up call for all well-meaning Asantes to rise against the malicious plans of the NDC.

We urge all Asantes to reflect deeply on this issue and come out in our numbers to vote massively for the NPP in the upcoming elections.” A portion of the statement said.

The Concerned Asante Youth strongly condemn the unwarranted attacks on former President John Agyekum Kufuor by Dela Edem, a prominent member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) communications team.

Dela Edem launched an unfounded tirade against Mr Kufuor simply because the former President expressed support for the NPP presidential candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

In a display of utter disrespect, the NDC man implied that the former president’s confinement to a wheelchair was due to his “evil deeds” when he was President, a deeply hurtful and malicious accusation that disregards basic human decency.

As responsible young Asantes, we view these derogatory remarks with the utmost seriousness. John Agyekum Kufuor is an extraordinary statesman who has served this country with distinction and commands colossal respect internationally.

Consequently, the Concerned Asante Youth demands that Dela Edem immediately retract the offensive statements and render an unqualified apology to Mr Kufuor within 24 hours. Should he fail to do so, we will take appropriate action.

We are equally concerned that since the NDC communications team member poured out the abusive words at former President Kufuor, neither the former President John Mahama nor any other party official have publicly dissociated themselves from the attacks.

This lack of response provides ample evidence that Mr Mahama and his party are in tacit support of the attacks.

The Concerned Asante Youth are not oblivious to the NDC’s longstanding tradition of undermining the Asante people.

The current development is part of the grand agenda by the NDC to keep to its tradition of denigrating Asantes for political gain.

We recall the pain and humiliation the NDC subjected former President Kufuor to in 2009 when he was booted out of the government-provided accommodation, which he intended to use for his office after serving two terms as President.

Following the unprovoked Dela Edem attacks on the distinguished former President, we will not be surprised that the next target could be the Asantehene. Kevin Taylor, a notorious “Mahama boy” and NDC loyalist, has already launched a series of attacks on Asantes, mainly focusing on high-ranking Asante leaders, including His Majesty the Asantehene.

The Concerned Asante Youth are aware that Kevin Taylor has the full backing of John Mahama, who has reportedly been organising NDC communicators to coach Kevin Taylor on further insulting and discrediting Asantes, particularly the Otumfuo.

This is a wake-up call for all well-meaning Asantes to rise against the malicious plans of the NDC. We urge all Asantes to reflect deeply on this issue and come out in our numbers to vote massively for the NPP in the upcoming elections. Supporting the NPP is the surest way to protect our heritage, as a return to power by the NDC will spell an even worse fate for the Asante people.
