Ahead of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) manifesto launch later on Sunday, the All People\u2019s Congress (APC) has said it will be looking out for plagiarised parts in the NPP\u2019s manifesto.<\/p>\n

This is after a former Chairman of the Legal and Constitutional Committee of the NPP, Mr. Ayikoi Otoo, had accused the APC of plagiarizing aspects of the unreleased NPP manifesto.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”izy110z3HXRFUUU43W69074VuqEE0TqZ”]After the allegations, the APC came out to rubbish the comments<\/a><\/strong><\/span> as juvenile and irresponsible saying that the manifesto was the product of months of hard work by Hassan Ayariga and his team of experts within the party.<\/p>\n

A statement signed by the General Secretary of the APC, Razak Kojo Opoku, also indicated that the party \u201cwill be on the lookout for any acts of plagiarism of our manifesto by the NPP, that is if they are able to put together a manifesto at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, the APC noted in its statement that, \u201cthe NPP has in recent past put up many juvenile explanations to cover up for their inexplicable failure to write a manifesto.\u00a0They have accused everybody under the sun of stealing their manifesto at a time when they have not put out any document for public scrutiny.\u201d<\/p>\n
