Editor-In-Chief of the New Crusading Guide newspaper Kweku Baako has described the internal strife in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as a "comedy of errors which has the potential to lead the party into a mutually assured destruction � MAD." Kweku Baako, in his submissions on Peace FM, blamed the National Chairman of the NPP, Paul Afoko and General Secretary Kwabena Agyapong for the recent incidents within the party by using internal party structures to address. According to him, the two leaders have not done enough to address the controversies and party's infighting. Alluding to yesterday's press conference which was nearly marred by armed men who stormed the party's headquarters, the senior journalist asserted that both leaders should have resolved the grievances from the party front with the steering committee meeting. To him, the actions taken by them should have been done in consultation with the National Executive Committee (NEC) and further insisted the leaders should not have organized the press conference, looking at the primaries ahead of the party. �You have so many things to do. Where lies the urgency relative to personnel at the office; at the Secretariat? Who must go on leave and must not go on leave! That�s not an urgent proposition for me at this material moment,� he stated. Speaking on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo", Mr. Baako said the National Chair and the NPP Chief Scribe committed "a fatal error by organizing that press conference", stressing that the timing was wrong. �The fatal error of judgment that has fueled all this controversy was the press conference they held...It should never have taken place.
