This has led to many heated arguments in all the major radio stations in Ghana. There had been calls from the pro-NDC group Research and Advocacy Platform (RAP) for the NPP flagbearer to publicly explain his inability to complete his degree at the prestigious institution, leaving the school shortly after he enrolled in the early 1960's.
The speaker of the group, Felix Kwakye Ofosu could not understand why Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo, flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party had excluded Oxford University in his CV. He went ahead to say that it is probably that he was dismissed for misconduct
However, Nana Akomea, NPP Communications Director revealed through JOY FM's super Morning Show that he(Nana Add) was withdrawn from Oxford University by his fathere because he felt it more prudent for his son to be educated in a Ghanaian University.
.
“Nana Addo went to Oxford University, his father withdrew him to come to Legon, that is what his father did; this is an 18-19 year old boy,” Akomea reported.
He denied claims that his party’s flagbearer had been sacked by the institution, saying that Nana Addo did not leave Oxford because he had done anything “untoward”.
According to him, it was the decision by Nana Addo’s father to give his son a blend of Ghanaian and Western education.
“Nana Addo’s father, I believe, wanted his son to have a blend so if you remember, he brought him to King Tackie Primary School at Adabraka in Accra, and then he took him to public school in England, a very exclusive private school where finished his secondary school, started Oxford and then the man [his father] brought him to Ghana. In my mind, you could see this is a man who is trying to give his son a blend of both worlds.
“When he finished University at Legon, he took him back so he could finish his Law and polish it up in France and so on,” Akomea explained.
