Two members of goverment have given different reasons for President Kufuor's failure to honour an invitation to speak on VOA, while attending the 58th session of the UN General assembly in New York, recently.
The explanations can't both be right. Judge for yourself
Mr. Kwabena Agyepong, Press secretary to the President, version:
- He claimed that before the VOA programme, President Kufuor made it known to the host, Shaka Sali that he had a tall line up of programmes that day, and that he would be meeting President Bush of the US, UNDP officials, African Ambassadors in the US, the UN Secretary General after which he hoped to turn up at the “Straight Talk Africa” programme on VOA.
He stressed that, the President was still in a meeting with the African Ambassadors when the VOA programme got underway.
- On his inability to be on the Voice of America (VOA) programme, Nana Akufo-Addo said President Kufuor and his entourage were in a meeting with a US delegation in the garment industry to discuss how best they could come to Ghana to invest in the country.
- ...the President was drunk that’s why he was not able to show up at the VOA talk-show.
