According to him, it became necessary for the main opposition party, the NDC, to politicize the issue of kidnappings in Canada, because until the arrest of the kidnappers, the ruling party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), in power, led by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, had attempted to represent the NDC. like a party full of bandits.

We are serious.

He added that comments from communication officials and government ministers all attest to the fact that the NDC's national president is behind the kidnapping cases in the country without any evidence to substantiate their claims. claims, with the exception of the so-called falsified tape.

"It is only President Akufo-Addo and his government, the NPP, who, out of sheer hatred, have sworn to dishonor Ofosu Ampofo for no reason. . . no one has brought any proof that Ofosu Ampofo is a kidnapper, but whenever they talk to the radio about an abduction, they tie it to him and they base their claims on a magnetized tape of Ofosu Ampofo, mentioning the kidnapping which is a pure lie; even in this falsified cbadette, there is nothing like the kidnapping in which the police dropped their first accusation when they listened to the tape, "he reprimanded.
