Member of Parliament (MP) for Okere, Mr Dan Botwe, says former President Rawlings’ latest comments on security matters are intended to divert attention from the poor performance of the Mills administration.
Mr Botwe said the Mr Rawlings’s comments are also intended to draw attention to himself.
“He just wants to draw attention to himself; he is always an attention seeker.
"President Mills and his intelligence and his government would have to be smarter,” Mr Botwe said.
Former President Rawlings is said to be furnishing the security agencies with intelligence on the operations of persons thought to be masterminds of recent armed robberies and murders recorded in parts of the country.
He is said to have told some ministers and party executives who called on him from the Volta region, the NDC’s political opponents are behind the worsening security situation.
But he failed to name the culprits. His aide, Kofi Adams says there is no need for Mr. Rawlings to go public with names.
Rather he said the former president is providing leads to the security agencies for action.
“In matters like this you pick information from sources and it is only though in-depth investigations that will bring out the details.”
“Names are being thrown out, points of meeting are being thrown out, various agendas at various persons’ houses are being picked up and all this is being passed on to the appropriate agencies,” Mr Adams hinted.
But the MP for Okere Dan Botwe says allegations as baseless.
He said the former president is diverting attention from failures of the Mills administration.
