Ghana’s
Ambassador to India, Sam Pee Yalley has called on the leadership of the
New Patriotic Party (NPP) to render an unqualified apology to residents
of Tamale.
Mr. Pee Yalley reproved the NPP for vilifying the
people of Tamale prior to their congress in the Northern Regional
capital. He sought to remind NPP members of some previous comments they
made against Northerners during the 2012 general elections.
According
to him, prior to the 2012 elections, some NPP gurus reportedly said but
for the advent of free education, several leaders in the country who
are northerners could not have attained the positions they hold in their
respective offices.
The NPP also labeled President John Mahama
as an "embarrassment" to Northerners for the reason being that his
administration has woefully failed Ghanaians.
Contributing to a panel discussion programme on U TV's "Adekye Nsroma",
Sam Pee Yalley, who is also a Public Interest Lawyer, was of the view
that the NPP needs to apologize for all the distasteful remarks they
made about Northerners in order for reconciliation to take place.
To him, "it's better late than never" adding “if they render a public apology, then it will reconcile with their new stance.”
