Simon Osei Mensah, Ashanti Regional Minister, has advised the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) not to trivialize the contents of the leaked tape involving the NDC National Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo.
Making his submissions on "Kokrokoo" on Peace FM, the Regional Minister held a strong view that the National Democratic Congress are preparing the grounds towards unleashing violence in next year's general elections, and the contents of the tape reflect their intentions.
He cited an incident saying the NDC once plotted to cause mayhem by attacking the NPP in Ashanti Region, but for his bold intervention, their ill-motive would have materialized, and so believed if the NPP loses guard, the opposition party will "dribble" them.
A leaked audio circulating around containing a voice making seditious comments and encouraging some NDC members to wage war on the EC Chairperson, Jean Mensa and also match the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) "boot-for-boot" has been associated with the NDC National Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo.
Although Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo has not yet addressed the contents of the tape neither has he confirmed nor denied the voice on the leaked audio, the NDC Communications Officer says the tape is fake and doctored.
But speaking to host Kwami Sefa Kayi, the Ashanti Regional Minister urged the NPP saying "don't trivialize the tape. They’re preparing the grounds and intentionally beating about it left, right, center; trying to dribble people. They cannot dribble everybody. Some of us have our eyes wide open”.

IT IS ONLY FOR GHANA CID THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE TOO BIG TO BE ARRESTED. IT IS THIS KIND OF ATTITUDE AND THIS DISCRIMINATION THAT MAKE MANY GHANAIANS TO MISTRUST GHANA POLICE. YOU BEND THE RULE TO FAVOR POLITICAL CRIMINALSSS WHO AT THE SAME TIME TURN AROUND TO CONDEMN YOU AS INCOMPETENT AND UNPROFESSIONAL. YOU PURSUE TO ARREST THE POOR ZONGO BOY WHO IS MANIPULATED BY THE POLITICAL HIGH CLASS TO COMMIT A CRIME BUT YOU TREAT THE POLITICIANS WHO MASTERMIND THE CRIME WITH KID'S GLOVES. PLEASE GHANA CID BE SERIOUS FOR ONCE, HOW DO YOU ALLOW OFOSU AMPOFO TO BE WALKING AROUND FOR HIS ALLEGED CRIME ON THE BASIS OF BEING BEREAVED. HOW IS HE RELATED TO NII OKRAN. THEN HE WILL NEVER BE ARRESTED BECAUSE EVERY NDC IS RELATED TO HIM AND EVERYDAY SEVERAL NDCs DIE IN GHANA. AND BY WHAT LAW IN GHANA THAT DEMANDS THAT A BEREAVED CRIMINALLL CANNOT BE ARRESTED. PLEASE BE SERIOUS FOR ONCE. YOU ALLOW YOURSELVES TO BE MISUSED BY THE POLITICIANS WHO AT THE SAME TIME PORTRAY YOU IN THE PUBLIC EYES AS INCOMPETENT. YOU ARE THE CAUSE OF YOUR OWN WOES. ACT NOW AND SHOW YOURSELVES CAPABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY FOR YOUR OFFICE. ELSEWHERE IN AMERICA SUCH ATTITUDE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. LOOK AT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MICHAEL COHEN. GHANA CID RISE ABOVE THIS ATTITUDE OF DISCRIMINATION AND INACTION IN FAVOR OF POLITICIANS. DO TO OFOSU AMPOFO AS YOU DID TO MONTIE 3.
