The Vice-President’s spokesperson, John Jinapor, has denied ever apologising to Ms Ursula Owusu, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) activist and Vice-President of FIDA International over a recent verbal altercation he had with her at the studious of Metro TV.
In an interview with Daily Post in reaction to news item headlined, “John Jinapor apologizes for ‘disparaging’ comments to Ursula,” posted on myjoyonline.com, Joy FM’s website, Mr. Jinapor said, “I’ve never and will never apologise to Ursula.”
According to him, what he did was to offer a sincere apology to viewers of Metro TV’s Good Morning Ghana because the programme had to be truncated abruptly as a result. Indeed in the myjoyonline.com story (in which Mr. Jinapor was alleged to have made the apology), there was no mention of his having apolgised to Ursula, a.k.a. Vuvuzela.
About two weeks ago, after a Metro TV ‘Good Morning Ghana’ programme, Ursula went to town telling the whole world that Mr. Jinapor had insinuated that women in politics were prostitutes.
In her usual hysterical fashio n, she called on women to descend on the Vice-President’s Spokesperson. However, Ursula was left in the cold as women groups refused to rally to her course after seeing through her antics. Mr. Jinapor, in the meantime, denied making those disparaging remarks Ursula wanted to tie around his neck.
