Pronouncements by Kwesi Pratt Jnr., Managing Editor of the Insight Newspaper, aimed at counseling Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom to cease from putting up a holier than thou attitude when talking about corruption has landed him in hot waters. The PPP founder and leader is of the opinion that the perceived act of corruption among political parties is real and refuted to tow the line of other political figures who think the issue should be brushed under the carpet. Dr Nduom's observations, it is believed, did not sit well with the seasoned journalist, thus leading to the somewhat uncomplimentary remarks he passed about him (Nduom). In sharing his personal opinion on the matter, Kwesi Pratt stated on Metro TV�s Good Morning Ghana show on Wednesday that Dr. Papa Kwesi Ndoum, should remove the log in his own eyes first before trying to point out the speck in others. He further stated that the holier than thou attitude of Dr. Nduom is worrisome and has to come to a stop. But in a rather sharp rebuttal, Charles Owusu, a member of the Communications Team of the PPP questioned the capacity of the seasoned journalist to castigate the PPP Flagbearer on corruption. He posited that the Insight newspaper Managing Editor cannot hold himself as a saint when issues of graft are being discussed. In an interview with Peace FM during the station�s Midday Bulletin, Charles Owusu accused Mr. Pratt of living like a Prince from Bel-Air eventhough everyone knows him as a Managing Editor of a newspaper that sells less than a 100 copies.
