The new Board Chairman of COCOBOD Hackman Owusu Agyemang has revealed that he has come under a barrage of attacks from what he described as ‘small boys’ within the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).
He indicates that the youngsters are bent on ruining his hard won reputation and have consistently vowed to drag his name into the mud ever since he raised concerns about the outrageous GH¢ 70,000 monthly salary for the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr Stephen Kwabena Opuni.
According to him, those piling attacks and unsubstantiated allegations against him do not have the muscles to shoulder defamation costs if they are found guilty citing instances where he has sued some of them and costs awarded but till date no dime has been paid.
“These small boys in NDC are only interested in tarnishing my image and I don’t want to drag them to court because these small boys who have defamed me, after taking them to court, I have even not received my damages and so they should be careful “ he noted.
His comments were in response to claims by NDC communicator, Kwaku Boahen that he demanded a Toyota V8 vehicle from COCOBOD before he even begins work.
“The new COCOBOD chair is demanding a car and an office before he works. I thought he was the one complaining about Opuni’s salary and now you need V8 before you work” he said on “Dwaso Nsem” Monday.
But in response Mr Hackman Owusu Agyemang said “I was a former minister during Kufour’s regime and I never stayed in any government’s bungalow or even demanded a car from government and so why should I demand for V8 before working for the country.
“I have my own cars and I’ve put in no request for COCOCOD to give me car to work. I am even working hard to make sure that salaries of top management of COCOBOD are slashed so we concentrate more on the work and not the money.

Ride on Hackman ride on, they know that if you are able to negotiate a lower values in favor of government they are doomed forever, that is why the attack. Let Ghanaians judge them just deliver.
YOU GUYS IN THE NDC JUST TALK BY HEART AND THAT IS WHY YOUR PARTY IS IN DISARRAY. DO YOU KNOW THAT HACKMAN IS AN EXTREMELY RIC HMAN BEFORE HE BECAME A MINISTER IN THE KUFUOR REGIME. THE NC IS FULL OF JOKERS WHO SPECIALTY IS TO INSULT ELDER STATESMEN WHO CAN PASS FOR THEIR FATHERS AND GRANDFATHERS
The calibre of people who communicate for the NDC tells what the party is made of. Kweku Boahen is just a m0ron and speaks like he is defecating. This NDC is a mistake for Gh. They are a curse!
As for baby with sharp teeth the little said about them the better. Do you know how wealthy Hon. Hackman is? He can buy you more V8s than you will ever imagine. Give us a break small boys.
