Re: Alleged Tape
Recording of meeting held in Koforidua
Our attention has been drawn to an alleged
tape recording of a meeting in Koforidua
held on the 29th January, 2015. At this
meeting Hon. Yaw Osafo-Maafo made several
remarks on the state of the Ghanaian
economy, on political strategy and on
economic and political empowerment.
Subsequently, some of his remarks have been
distorted as advocating tribal or ethnic
sentiments, trying to create the impression
that he is a tribalist. In all his public
life, he has striven to do what is right for
Ghana and not for any sectional interest.
We therefore wish to state the following:
(i). The alleged tape purported to be his
voice has been doctored, mischievously
re-arranged and pieced together, using
modern technology, to create a false
impression.
(ii). This meeting took place on 29th
January, but this concoction has been
mischievously released to coincide with and
try to overshadow the recent successful “Wᴐn
Gbo” demonstration of 18th February.
(iii). The release of this doctored tape is
a desperate attempt to divert the attention
of Ghanaians from REAL problems facing Ghana
– widespread corruption, rising levels of
unemployment, economic hardships and
mismanagement of the economy.

Valerie Sackey critiques Obed
Asamoah’s book: “THE POLITICAL HISTORY OF GHANA (1950 –
2013) – THE EXPERIENCES OF A NON-CONFORMIST.”
DailyGraphic, Feb 24, Ghanadot
- The author, however, has been to so many places
that it is sometimes hard to see where he is coming
from. He admits in his preface, that he has “vacillated
between revolution and multi-party democracy.” I lost
count, halfway through the book, of the number of
political parties and regimes in which he played some
role.....More
