The Founder and flagbearer of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP), Akua Donkor has fired back at her critics saying, she accompanied the President to Italy because she wields more power than some Ministers of State.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Citi News,<\/strong> Akua Donkor said: \u201cI am truthful, I am knowledgeable, and that is why he took me.\u201d<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”TfLUoJdcQvbdOjk2HNKJ3EfzzqewNslv”]\u201cPeople are asking why he didn\u2019t take Ministers but me. The power I wield is greater than that of the Ministers,\u201d she boasted.<\/p>\n

Akua Donkor was spotted among the entourage of President John Mahama<\/a><\/strong> <\/span>who was on a working visit to Italy last week.<\/p>\n

Madam Donkor was seen with the President in the photos published by the Flagstaff House Communication Bureau.<\/p>\n

She was present at the Ghana Day at the Milan Expo 2015 and also at the\u00a0Rodolfi Pomodoro A Parma Tomato Processing Plant.<\/p>\n

There has since been a backlash over her inclusion in the President\u2019s entourage to Italy.<\/p>\n

But Akua Donkor insists her position can be likened to a President.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident appoints a minister. My position is like a President. So if he is traveling and he takes me along, there is nothing wrong with it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe knows I have no evil intention. God knows I speak the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n
