Even As A Doctor, I’ve Achieved More In The Education Sector Than The NDC – NAPO Brags
Education Minister, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh has noted that his achievements in the education sector in three years cannot be compared to what the National Democratic Congress did in eight years.
Speaking at the NPP Teachers’ Network Conference, NAPO further threw a challenge to the NDC running mate, Prof Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang to face him in a debate on the educational sector.
According to him, over his time as education minister, there has never been anything like teacher strikes.
“I am a Doctor and not a teacher. In three and half years, we have done a lot for teachers… I wish I get the opportunity to sit with the Professor who held the office I am holding, so we count one by one what has been achieved,” he dared.

Just In: Mahama Files New Motion At The Supreme Court Asking EC Chair To Admit To Errors In Her Declaration
The National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer in the 2020 election, John Mahama, has filed a motion at the Supreme Court asking that EC Chairperson admits she made errors during her declaration of election results.
The facts relate to Jean Mensa’s the declaration of results on December 9.
Mr Mahama wants the EC Chairperson to admit that she did declare the results on December 9 which was broadcast live on radio, television and online platforms.
The former President who lost the December 7, polls is at the apex court seeking to set the results aside.
The court is due to hear the matter on Tuesday, January 19, 2020.
Mr Mahama wants the Apex court to direct the EC Chairperson to admit to certain facts.
He also wants the EC Chairperson Jean Mensa to admit that she has since not made any other declaration of results.
He further wants the EC Chairperson to admit that the figures and percentages announced by her during this declaration if collated will come to 100.3% instead of 100%.
He finally wants the EC Chairperson to admit that the subsequent correction of results in statements issued by the EC is different from what candidates obtained as captured in the summary of results sheets published by the EC.

I Wanted To Force A Rerun – Carlos Brags As He Celebrates His Snatching Of Ballot Papers With His Constituents
Carlos Ahenkorah, the honourable MP for Tema West who came under intense public scrutiny for his ballot paper snatching incident on the floor of parliament during the inauguration of the 8th parliament, has justified it by claiming he wanted to cause a rerun.
He explained his absurd action in the video saying: “We were confident that we had already won because we knew we had 138 votes in the House. I was praying that our votes would be counted first and then when they did, we noticed that we only got 136 votes.
“I realized immediately that this was not good for us because it became evident that the NDC knew what they were about – they had connived with some people from our side to betray us.”
