Presidential Advisor on the Economy, Dr Anthony Akoto Osei has denied taking a swipe at Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta in a viral audio.
The former legislator is alleged to have slammed the two officials and described them as incompetent in their handling of the economy and the resultant seeking of support from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
An audio has gone viral on social media in which D. Akoto Osei allegedly described the Vice President and the Finance Minister as “worse as each other” and therefore cannot help the New Patriotic Party to win Election 2024.
But he has denied the audio saying he did not make the statements attributed to him.
”My attention has been drawn to a post on Ghanaweb and other social media platforms including a purported leaked tape which has me allegedly commenting on the performance of the two personalities mentioned in the headline.
I wish to categorically deny making these unfounded statements either in an interview or in an engagement with anybody.
The voice in the leaked tape is emphatically not mine. Neither do I subscribe to the alleged comments.
Not only do I demand this rejoinder be published with the same prominence given the wicked allegation, I further demand a retraction and apology from Ghanaweb.”
