Nduom Runs A Slave Company – Wayo
Maverick politician, Charles Kofi Wayo has taken a swipe at the owner and flag bearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom, describing him as a cheat, suggesting Dr. Nduom to be not less than a slave owner.According to Mr. Wayo, the PPP owner in this present day economic hardships pays a lot of his workers a paltry ¢70 as their monthly salary for working in his various luxurious hotels and banks across the country.
This is in spite of the fact that Dr. Nduom charges nearly US$300 to US$400 per a night at his various hotels. Most of his workers who break their back to bring in the money are not enjoying, rather the generated revenue goes into funding his political activities to enable him become president of Ghana.
“Dr. Nduom had propelled himself as a successful businessman in spite of the fact that some of the people working for him do not have Social Security numbers”, Mr. Wayo noted.
He said this about the soft-spoken politician and now flag bearer of the PPP on Vibe FM, an Accra-based radio station where he appeared as a panelist.
He said Dr. Nduom cannot emerge from nowhere and claim to be a saint in politics when “we are aware of his performance at the Ministry of Energy and Ministry for the Public Sector Reforms in the immediate past New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration led by ex-President John Agyekum Kufour in 2006”.
This statement did not go down well with Mr. Richmond Keelson, one of the agents and spokesperson of Dr. Nduom and onetime editor of The Today newspaper also owned by Dr. Nduom. Mr. Keelson was also a panelist on the show.
He quickly rebutted Mr. Wayo’s claims, saying the records of Dr. Nduom as the Minister of Energy and later Minister for Public Sector Reforms are there for all to see, and it is not for Nduom to go about boasting about how well he served the nation in the Kufuor administration.
He threatened Mr. Wayo to desist from attacking Dr. Nduom, else they (his agents) would also go round uncovering his true nature, but Mr. Wayo stood his ground and insisted that even though the PPP owner prides himself as a successful businessman, he cared less about the welfare of his workers, especially when transport fares and food prices have shot up.
He related that such a person cannot be a leader of this country because, he has no magnanimity for the ordinary man but only interested in chasing his ambition, his private pocket and how he would grow his businesses through dubious means at the detriment of the electorates.
Dr. Nduom is on record to have resigned his position as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of First National Bank to pursue his dreams of becoming President of the Republic of the Ghana.
The hotelier’s preoccupied ambition now is to become president, having served as Assemblyman for one of the electoral areas in Elmina in the Central Region, before moving on to become a Member of Parliament (MP) for (KEEA) on the ticket of the Convention peoples Party (CPP).
Whilst an MP, he allied himself with the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and served in Mr. Kufuor’s government as a minister under the famous “All Inclusive” arrangement.
Dr. Nduom is also the bankroller the Unemployed Graduates Association. It was shockingly discovered that most of the members of the group are in his employment; they work for some of his companies. The main aim of the group according to insiders is to steer agitation on the youth front.
