Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide newspaper has apologized for publicly stating that Anas' documentary; Number 12 was a collaboration between the BBC and the ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
Mr Baako had earlier stated that the latest investigative piece by Anas was a joint cooperative piece between Tiger Eye PI and the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).
"I had said so publicly that it was a joint project . . . why I said so was because the people who were dealing with Anas three of them I know for the last 30 to 40 years were BBC people. Apparently, they've left BBC but they're part of the technical team. They came to me, I dealt with them on so many things . . . so I assumed," Kweku Baako explained.
However, the BBC denied his claims in a statement indicating that “Contrary to any reports or rumours you may have heard or seen prior to publication stating ‘Number 12’ was a product of a collaborative work by the BBC and the journalist (Anas Aremeyaw Anas) this was not the case. The BBC documentary, ‘Betraying the Game”, broadcast after “Number 12” was first put into the public domain, was an independent and impartial work and a report about Mr. Anas’ investigation. The BBC played no part whatsoever in his investigation and has never sought to suggest otherwise. Mr Anas is not a BBC journalist, we did not work with him during his investigation or commission him to carry out this investigation.”
According to Kweku Baako, there was a level of arrangement and collaboration between them but he had gone to the extent of saying the BBC were joint owners, because three individuals he assumed were still technical staff of the BBC, had been in constant touch with him (Baako) prior to the premiere.
"So I was wrong . . . and that is why the BBC made Anas to go on air to clear the misconception. This Sulemana stuff is belated because already Anas had cleared the air," he added.
Kweku Baako contributing to a panel discussion on Wednesday's edition of Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo' said; "I accept responsibility for what I put out there and if people got deceived I apologize . . . I said so because I just thought it was the truth I was putting out . . . whatever it is, Kweku Baako takes full responsibility for that misrepresentation or misinformation I put out there, and I sincerely apologize".

Ken always advice you to beware of your boy but u won't listen all because of your greediness but and if u change from your bad ways nemesis will catch up with you no sooner than later. How can u look at our faces & tell us this rubbish that those people used to work with BBC therefore u thought it was a collaboration. ***barred word*** man
This is a bla.tan.t lie. Sometimes people speak as is the listening populace are all fo.ols. If the BBC initiates a joint project, MR Kwaku Baako, you mean neither your, Crusading Guide, Tiger Eye, and Ana Lawyers will receive a formal letter with subject clearly stating something relating to a joint project? We know Anas spent s=over $200,000 for No. 12, who funded him? Can you answer this without presuming, and who has been funding him all these years? I think Ken.Agyapong is on to something. To think of it, why was k.Nyantakyi zoomed in on? I am not defending his misjudgements, but why was he the only FA President the investigations focused on, Why didn't Tiger Eve PI no go after all the FA Presidents in Africa, and the timing of the release, why not after the World Cup? Infact, BBC should sue the pants of KBaako for presuming former employees of the BBC contacting him means its a joint venture between Tiger Eye and BBC. I mean lets be serious. I have always sais I wonder why people listen to KBaako to begin with, and that program NewsFils, I just don;t get it. Presumed BBC, presumed the British Broadcasting Corporation, presumed, presumed, presumed? To think of it, does it make sense to you, KBaako to say after all that has happened, Opare audio, you still support Charlotte, unbelievable. Well I presume you are full of sh.i.t.,..... no further comment.
Boss. So what else may you have assumed?
YOUR NEXT APOLOGY WILL BE COME SOON..... REGARDING YOUR STANCE ON CHARLOTTE OSEI. YOU THINK YOU KNOW IT ALL.
Let no one be deceived. Listen to Baako's voice and see how his voice has betrayed him. He is not telling the truth. Baako and Anas have been found out and I can say that all that they have been saying BBC this, Al Jazeera that, are all L1ES. Can someone check the background of those 3 guys he claimed work with BBC before? This could be another LIE.
Awwwwwwwww Ghanafo. KB apologized with his head up not bowed. A complete gentleman. Not like others who go wrong and refuse to accept. He will always be my star. He explained why he got it wrong, why chastise him? KB, you’re my man.
MR BAAKO YOU WERE UP THERE BUT NOW YOU ARE GOING DOWN TO KWESI PRATTS LEVEL.PLS APOLOGISE TO KEN AGYAPONG.
CHECK YOUR FACTS FIRST BEFORE GOING PUBLIC. IT'S A MISTAKE TO JUMP INTO CONCLUSION ABOUT ANAS.EVERY WORD THAT PROCEED FROM KENNEDY IS TRUE AND ACCURATE.
That is what will happen when you swallow everything K.B says. You should have listen to the horse himself on joyfm. Some times PRO's get things twisted. Gm
Don't apology to anyone Mr knowing everything on this earth shame unto u
