The Deputy General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho has descended heavily on Sam George, a Presidential Staffer, saying, \u201cPresident John Dramani Mahama is fed up with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”1pzRmc9jQl4svNjNKZtg37sabBD56obf”]\u201cI’ll tell you today that President Mahama does not support Sam George. Let Sam George come out and tell me that President Mahama supports him. President Mahama is fed up with Sam George,\u201d he fumed on Accra based radio station, Neat FM.<\/p>\n

Sam George is reported to have said engineers at the Volta River Authority (VRA) have sabotaged the government because they have all the necessary skills and competencies to prevent the power situation that has plagued the nation<\/strong><\/a><\/span> yet they seem unconcerned\u00a0saying \u201cthe engineers at the VRA have so many questions to answer as far as this energy crisis is concerned.\u201d<\/p>\n

Angered by the statement, Koku Anyidoho said the \u201cNDC would not be in power for hundred years but we have all these small boys like Sam George just insulting everybody. You go and insult the engineers from VRA, you go and insult Ofori Atta; who the hell are you, Sam George?\u201d<\/p>\n

He further vowed to deal with recalcitrant NDC members who insult people for expressing divergent views against the government adding that \u201c\u2026now that I\u2019m the Deputy General Secretary of the party I\u2019m waiting for that Sam George boy. Me, I will deal with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Deputy General Secretary however begged Ghanaians to forgive them for plunging the country into the power crisis.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m on my knees and I\u2019m begging them. The president also is begging them…he has said we have a problem and that in due time, we will manage the crisis,\u201d he pleaded.<\/p>\n

Sam George’s “elevation” insult to Ivor Greenstreet<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sam George, in 2014, made a controversial comment which seemed to have affected the sensibilities<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0of the General Secretary of the Convention People\u2019s Party (CPP), Ivor Greenstreet after the latter\u00a0issued a damning verdict on government\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n

Ivor Green Street during the 2014 National Democratic Congress'(NDC) delegates’ congress\u00a0said Ghanaians are yet to experience<\/strong><\/a> <\/span>the much touted Better Ghana Agenda of \u00a0the governing NDC since they took over power in 2008.<\/p>\n

He said: “Apparently nobody, I mean nobody is seeing your better Ghana agenda. Continuous dumsor, dumsor. Corruption from top to bottom, left right inside out and all the challenges you are facing is suffocating the Ghanaian people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Responding to Mr. Greenstreet\u2019s criticism against the NDC government in the said year, Mr. George wrote on his facebook wall that: \u201cIvor Greenstreet apparently needs some elevation to see the Better Ghana.\u201d<\/p>\n
