Maintain Ayisi Boateng – NPP-SA

New Patriotic Party (NPP) Executives in South Africa are calling on the President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo not to sack embattled High Commissioner George Ayisi Boateng from office.

According to them, the High Commissioner has within his short term in office endeared himself to majority of Ghanaians in places that he has visited including Cape Town, Johannesburg and Pretoria.

Mr Ayisi Boateng has come under heavy criticisms after stating that NPP supporters are his topmost priority and that he will place them ahead of any other Ghanaian.

The NPP executives in a statement said, ‘We wish to state unequivocally, that we have no qualms with Mr G A Boateng remaining as Ghana High Commissioner to SA as he continue to fulfil his assigned mandate of which we are sure he is executing to the fullest’.

They stated that the High Commissioner’s simplicity and humbleness during GHANAFEST in Pretoria on October 7, 2017 is a testimony to his sense of devotion to work.

Read details of NPP-SA’s statement:

NPP-SA SUPPORT FOR MR GEORGE AYISI BOATENG:
The Acting Chairperson, all Executives of NPP branches, the entire membership of NPP-SA, and a cross section of Ghanaians in South Africa, Swaziland and Botswana, hereby declare our unflinching and un-paralled support for Hon. G. Ayisi Boateng (Paa George) as the High Commissioner to South Africa.

We wholeheartedly support his apologetic letter and strongly stand by him. He has within his short stint in the country endeared himself to majority of Ghanaians in places that he has visited including Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, etc.

In a meeting with Paa George-“Audience with the High Commissioner, H. E. Boateng”, in Johannesburg, on 24th September 2017 which was attended by Party members and other Ghanaians from Eastern Cape a distance of over 1000km, Bloemfontein-370km, Witbank-150km, Pretoria 54km, he willingly gave out his private mobile number that anyone in need of any support whatsoever, should contact him personally as long as he/she is a Ghanaian. In his interaction with the people he stated that even though he is deployed by the NPP, his mission is Ghana first.

On question time he chastised members who were calling for the removal of certain personnel from the High Commission; he advised the audience that all employees were Ghanaians, citing various examples to buttress his claim. He requested members present to solicit for investors among the broader Ghanaian community.

His simplicity and humbleness during GHANAFEST in Pretoria on 7th October 2017 is a testimony to his sense of devotion when at every stand he had a têtê-a-têtê with the owner(s) and offered the moral support, and encouragement to return home and invest.

We have video footage of both occasions (Ghanafest and Audience with HE) to support our claim, and will make it available to the respective authorities.

We wish to state unequivocally, that we have no qualms with Mr G A Boateng remaining as Ghana High Commissioner to SA as he continue to fulfil his assigned mandate of which we are sure he is executing to the fullest.
