For Immediate Release
OSAFO-MAAFO's DENIAL BETRAYS HIM AS A COWARD
Our attention has been drawn to a Press Release with the heading "Re: Alleged Tape Recording of
meeting held in Koforidua" and signed by one Emmanuel Bediako Mamfe who claims to be Mr. Osafo-
Maafo's Special Assistant denying the former Mp's voice which has been captured on tape among other
things, promoting ethnic bigotry as well as inciting some Regions in Ghana against others. We wish to
state that we are highly disappointed in the former Minister and Member of Parliament for Akim Oda for
this cowardice move which only erodes the respect some of us had for him hitherto, without adding
anything positive.
For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state the following facts:
1. The meeting was held on 29th January, 2015 at Oyinka Hotel at Effiduase, Koforidua.
2. It was a Regional Council of Elders meeting.
3. The following people were present at the meeting: Yaw Osafo Maafo (Chairman of the Regional
Council of Elders), Kiston Akuming Kissi (Regional Chairman), Alhaji Umar Bodinga (1st Regional Vice
Chairman), Prince Aboagye (Regional Secretary), Nana Yaw Papin (Assistant Regional Secretary), Alecs
Agobo (Former Regional Secretary) and expected two representatives from each of the 33
constituencies in the Region among others.
4. Prince Aboagye, the NPP Regional Secretary was the MC for the meeting.
5. It was a meeting to discuss the role the Council members will be playing from now till election 2016
as well as strategies to be adopted by the NPP going into election 2016 with Nana Addo as their Flag
bearer.
Can Osafo Maafo tell Ghanaians which part of the logically coherent tape was doctored?
What were his original message that has been doctored?
Why have they sent a high powered investigators to cone to the region "to chase shadows"?
We wish to state that the full tape is a little over an hour which we can release for scrutiny together
with tapes of other meetings held at Mac Dic Royal Hotel at Koforidua where other NPP bigwigs made
equally damming comments and even worse revelations.
It is unimaginable that Osafo Maafo sort to lead this country as president with such cowardice. He
should be brave and accept responsibility and humbly apologise than to hide behind the capacity of
technology to deny.
As a democratic party, NDC totally abhor politics premised on ethnocentric incitements and will on any
day condemn such an unconstitutional act. We add our voice to call on all Citizens to condemn and
reject any attempt by anyone to pursue an Independent Akan State Agenda, now or in the future.
God Bless Ghana!
Signed
Kevor Mark-Oliver
(Eastern Regional Secretary, NDC)
