KOFI BOAKYE TO SUE ATO KWAMENA? UNNECESSARY Hi Kwamena, I must say am shocked by your penchant to go on and on, painting yourself to be a ‘Mr. Free Your Mind’ and damn the consequences. Even when you have clearly deviated from truth, you insist people should hear your views. The last time I heard from you, you were strongly in doubt as to whether there is one self-made Ghanaian who has not travelled abroad before. KSM got you one, and on TV, you looked foolishly surprised by the answer.
For the sake of the mighty green valleys that beatifies St. Johns School, I wouldn’t have bothered to write back to tell your readers, the lies and half-truths that you have swallowed and disseminating on MV Benjamin.
Anybody at all can attack me for the works I have done on MV Benjamin, among others; Kofi Boakye’s sidelining from the Police Service. No problem. But for you to go to the extent and describe me as a gullible journalist, I will forget about VIAMPARANTES and react accordingly, setting the records straight.
Ato, you are not a lawyer, so on the issue of MV Benjamin, I expect you and I to remain within the domains of our journalistic profession and do investigations into the case or analyse the available data, since the importers of the 77 parcels and the whereabouts of the consignment are still not known.
I therefore expected you to do your analysis of the issue, based on facts, but not a scandalised Georgina Wood Committee report which was predicted to be a sham and so it did become. Talk to the Head-Pastor of Osimi parish, ‘prophet’ Joe Dee and Honourable Inussah Fuseini.
Your credibility, if you intend to build one as an investigative journalist, will be jeopardised, if you pin your strengths on that contradictory report put together and endorsed by that Supreme Court judge, who soon after, became the Chief Justice.
My gut feeling is that you have not taken time to analyse that G-Wood report, else you wouldn’t have come to the hasty conclusions of accepting that report as the gospel truth.
This is the report that in sections seeks to whitewash the Police Service and in another section, finds Police complicity in the loss of the 76 parcels and therefore recommend reformation of the service.
Old Saint, please tell me. Have you seen the RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS of the Georgina Committee? I can bet with my last Kufuor Cedi, that you have not. So you see, Georgina Wood hid the basis of her conclusions from you, then manages to turn you into a believer of her gospel. Fine boy, or like the crush you have on Betty, you are again dying to see the nakedness of the CJ so your belief in her works?
Don’t forget she did not attend St. Lewis (Arch-Bishop Porter’s) so why this hot chase for her attention.
Let me help you hear, the next time you meet her, ask her for the Record of Proceedings, and you will be amazed at the things that happened during the in-camera sittings and some of the statements that were made by those that were at such sittings. (See her for details of the admissions under oat, and the likely perjury charges that may one-day be brought up against certain personalities.)
If you have forgotten Messrs Vincent Aikins, Joe Aboagye Debrah (both from 1st Law) and Maxwel Opoku Agyemang from the Ghana School of Law had predicted that the Wood Committee was about to set the whole country on a “wild-goose-chase.” Go back and refer to your notes on MV Benjamin.
This was after they had on behalf of Kofi Boakye, filed fourteen bullet questions which the Committee, at the time, failed to provide answers to. Have you asked yourself why?
Hon. Inusah Fuseini held a press conference at the time and spoke on the official party position on the conduct of business at Georgina Wood’s Committee, and went further to condemn the report, which you love as your ‘Bible.’ This is the official position of the ruling NDC government. Is this not the basis for the President’s promise to reinvestigate such high-profile drug-related cases?
Now let me tell your readers, who might have been misled by you. ACP Kofi Boakye did not claim that he was an undercover agent. What he said at the committee is that he was investigating the case. Go do proper research. Furthermore the ACP did not need the permission of anybody to go hold such a meeting, as the Police Director of Operations in this country. Go and ask Georgina Wood, if she can remember her Policing days, if the Director General in charge of Operations needs approval to conduct investigations into any case. This also, your Francis Poku and IGP Achaempong admitted.
Your Georgina Wood claimed that because the ACP knew that some (not all) of the men he had invited to the meeting were drug dealers, he (Kofi Boakye) should have arrested them. And you believe your Madam.
Ato, please wait, when you become an investigator, then you begin to blow the cover of agents or contacts, who sit in meetings and provide you with board room or inner-cabinet information.
You can also wait, when you retire from Joy FM, then you cause the arrest of that cocaine addict or dealer, who spoke to Araba Coomson and the other guys when they were doing stories on cocaine.
I want to ask, why did you guys at Kokomlemle refuse to hand-over to the Police, those boys from Nima, who granted interviews some weeks ago about their involvement in Sakawa and gave chilling details of their modus opearndi. You see, you know nothing when it comes to doing intelligence, so I expect you to sit behind your desk and edit or join Kojo for the review of your ‘selected’ newspapers.
Next time that you go to Canada, through JHR, visit the federal security offices and ask questions as to how the Police are able to resolve high profile criminal cases, such as those involving drug-trafficking. I’m sure you’ll be schooled enough to understand that the ACP was right in engaging the panel in such a conversation, clearly to win their confidence and be able to narrow in on the true brains behind the MV Benjamin shipment.
You may as well get the tape recording, done by the now-in-jail Alhaji Issah Abass, on the direction of Ben Ndego, the on-leave NACOB boss, go to Canada and ask for the expert opinion on the issues surrounding the case. Alas, you’ll see the shoddy work that your sweet-HOLY Georgina Wood did on MV Benjamin, resulting in her promotion as Chief Justice.
I can’t wait to hear your reply after returning from Canada (not Esikado) to get some schooling.
