Akufo-Addo denies allegation

The office of Nana Akufo-Addo’s attention has been drawn to a certain malicious allegation that was made on a radio program by a worker of Akosombo Textiles Limited on February 4, 2010, to the effect that some workers of the company have been laid off because Nana Akufo-Addo has refused to pay for printed wax that was designed for him during the 2008 electioneering campaign.

We wish to state categorically that no such order was made by Nana Akufo-Addo’s 2008 campaign team and that this is a total fabrication meant to dent the hard won reputation of Nana Akufo-Addo.

We are informed also that the Distribution department of ATL has since openly denied the allegation, stating that no such order was made by Nana Akufo-Addo from the factory.

We hope to see a new culture in Ghana, where the mass media will not serve as a mere conveyor belt of any allegation, however false and malicious.
