NDC’s Ofosu Ampofo behaves like a toddler – Allotey Jacobs
Suspended member of the opposition National
Democratic Congress (NDC) Bernard Allotey Jacobs
has taken swipe at the NDC’s National Chairman
Samuel Ofosu Ampofo over an earlier statement he
made.

Mr Ofosu Ampofo, during a radio interview, urged
supporters of the party to ignore Alottey Jacobs
and former Deputy General Secretary Koku Anyidoho,
who have both been suspended from the party.



“What I can tell our supporters is that let us
ignore Koku Anyidoho and Allotey Jacobs and focus
on our party. As we speak, they have all been
suspended from the party.

“If you wish that we take further actions
against them following their action we will
listen. We will go and look at exactly what has to
be done to ensure sanity,” Ofosu-Ampofo said.

But speaking in an interview on Happy FM’s Epa
Hoa Daben show with Don Kwabena Prah the outspoken
former Central Regional chairman described Ofoso
Ampofo as someone who behaves like a toddler.
“Ofosu Ampofo behaves like a toddler and speaks
like a kindergarten kid. I’m not denting his
image, he has already done that to himself. How
can such a person call himself a Pentecost elder?
He assembled young communicators to go after the
elders of the party. Planning with them to kidnap
people.”

Allotey Jacobs also revealed that Ofosu Ampofo
accepted before him about the alleged tape talking
about planning a road-map of criminal activities
targeted at the Chairperson of the Electoral
Commission (EC) and the Chairman of the National
Peace Council, among others that, that’s his
voice.

Ofosu Ampofo was allegedly heard last year talking
about such plans.

A police investigator with the Criminal
Investigations Department (CID) Headquarters
Detective Chief Inspector Berko told an Accra High
Court the report places the probability that the
voice is that of the politician at 90% leading the
experts to conclude that it cannot be the voice of
another person.

He explained to the court that the experts
carefully analysed how certain words like
‘people’, ‘officer’, and ‘police’ were
pronounced in two audios that were compared.

Ofosu-Ampofo and a member of the party’s
communication team, Kweku Boahen, are standing
trial for conspiracy to assault a public officer.
