Outgoing Member of Parliament for Subin, Eugene Boakye Antwi, has questioned why the New Patriotic Party (NPP) did not, in equal measure, respond to the never-ending accusations of corruption and state capture made against government officials by  lawmaker for North Tongu Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa.

Mr Antwi expresses the view that the middle class bought into the revelations made by Mr Ablakwa and punished the NPP for it in the elections.

Speaking on the Good Morning Ghana show on Thursday, December 12, he said "Okudzeto is a minority MP, he is doing these dawn broadcasts against our party and we don't respond to them?" The host of the programme reported that " it is because you don't have a response." He then replies "But why didn't you have a response?

So the middle classes in our country were hoodwinked or bought into what Okudzeto was doing and punished us." Eugene Boakye Antwi further stated that the NPP also lost because of apathy.
