Private Legal Practitioner, Lawyer Maurice Ampaw has described as needless the press conference organized by the National Communications officer of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Sammy Gyamfi on "Family and Friends Government" in President Akufo-Addo's administration.
To him, all the political parties in the country are "full of family and friends; both the NPP and the NDC are a group of families and when they win power, they share the positions among themselves”.
Speaking on Okay FM’s 'Ade Akye Abia' Morning Show, Lawyer Maurice Ampaw said “When you go to church, we say that we have joined a Christian family and we are one, and so NDC as a family and NPP as a family, when they win elections, are they not the same people who share the positions among themselves?” he asked.
He reiterated that, "that is why the issue of family and friends government to me, is neither here nor there”.
The NDC through its National Communications Officer, Sammy Gyamfi on Tuesday accused the New Patriotic Party [NPP] government led by President Akufo-Addo of nepotism in a press conference – describing the President as the "most nepotistic President in the world".
The NDC indicated that at least 51 persons related to the President have been appointed into government.

SHAME SHAME SHAME
Complete crapp! We are not talking about Npp or Ndc as parties appointees those who worked hard to win power. We are talking about the president appointing many of his family and friends who played no role or less role in bringing the party in power yet he has given them appointment. Did you see someone like asante bediatuo playing any major role in party activities. Where did you see his former wife campaigning or actively participating in party works. Even Hajia Fati worked harder than most of these people he has appointed claiming they are competent. How about sam Payne, is he not competent for a better position? But because he is not his family member where is he? The fact is the president is wrong. Someone says, are they not Ghanaians, if they are Ghanaians then what about the rest of the party faithfuls who actively campaigned for him and are also competent, are they from Jupiter?
Maurice Ampaw is not a brilliant lawyer actually. Too much talk and no substance. His opinion is not important cause he is not even good in his profession. My advise to him is to go back to school and study the LAW AGAIN
No wonder the Chief Justice wants to control the number of lawyers graduating annually!! This thing too is a lawyer?! Who was Rawlings’ relatives in government? Kufuor has brothers and cousins in his administration. YOU HAVE THE EFFRONTERY TO COMPARE THE NDC TO THE NPP? ***barred word*** ambulance chaser!!
The most stupiiid and foolishhh president in Ghana is Akufo Addo. He look like a monkey. Is not this Monkey fault. Is central Region. There will be Arab Spring in Ghana 2020. Monkey Akufo Addo should come and arrest me. Foolishhh president
Wow, political equalization, NPP is doing it big time so oh, NDC also did it so its game, ignoring the fact that, the president as an opposition leader PROMISED never to repeat it. Now his has even surpassed the one he criticised. What do you call people like Maurice Ampaw? Hmmm Ghana.
