AKUFO-ADDO REACTS TO FALSE
REPUBLIC PUBLICATION - YET ANOTHER LIE
Yet again, the office of Nana Akufo-Addo has been compelled to
react to a publication in the Republic newspaper, one of the
many pro-NDC papers dedicated to publishing falsehoods about
Nana Akufo-Addo.
The story in the paper with headline “NPP gurus hot over ‘Le
Baron’ cocaine saga”, and which has been reproduced subsequently
on Ghanaweb and Peacefmonline, tries desperately to create a
linkage between the owner of Le Baron, a hotel in East Legon,
Accra, who has been arrested in the United Kingdom for allegedly
engaging in drug trafficking and money laundering, and Nana
Akufo-Addo.
The story claims that one Mr. David Kwadwo Anim, owner of Le
Baron, is a friend and major financier of Nana Akufo-Addo, who
went to the extent of donating US$2 million to the campaign of
the 2012 presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party.
For the avoidance of doubt, these statements by the Republic are
nothing but lies and deliberate fabrications designed in a
desperate attempt to tarnish, once again, the image of Nana
Akufo-Addo. Mr. David Anim is not a friend of Nana Akufo-Addo.
Indeed, Nana Akufo-Addo does not recollect ever having met him.
The alleged donation of US$2 million to the campaign of Nana
Akufo-Addo, as reported by the paper, is also a big lie.
In addition, Nana Akufo-Addo has never been arrested at Heathrow
Airport or any other airport anywhere in the world. Once again,
this is a wicked lie to sour the reputation of a man whose life
has been a matter of public knowledge. Not surprisingly, no
details of the alleged arrest are provided by the paper, other
than the bald allegation.
We urge Ghanaians to disregard these stories, which have proven
over the years to be deliberate ploys by pro-NDC papers to try
to tarnish and damage the reputation of Nana Akufo-Addo. We
insist that the Republic newspaper, Ghanaweb and Peacefmonline
withdraw these allegations and apologise for them.
We, however, wish to state that this will be the very last time
that the office of Nana Akufo-Addo will be responding to
falsehoods and deliberate acts of defamation against his person
by these pro-NDC newspapers through the use of this medium. The
next response to such defamatory publications will be to seek
redress at the National Media Commission and the courts of law.
It is obvious that these wicked and evil lies against Nana
Akufo-Addo and the NPP are intended to divert the attention of
the Ghanaian people from the widespread corruption and bad
governance of the NDC that is imposing intolerable hardships on
Ghanaians. These crude ploys will fail. Ghanaians can see
through them.
