He won't resign today or tomorrow - Nana B insists 16-minute Dame-Jakpa tape fake

Henry Nana Boakye, NPP National Organizer

National Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Henry Nana Boakye, has restated the party's support for embattled Attorney-General Godfred Yeboah Dame.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) on May 28 released a purported phone conversation in which Dame is heard discussing matters relating to the ambulance purchase case.

Richard Jakpa, the third accused person in the case, discusses issues concerning the first accused (Ato Forson), meetings at the home of a Supreme Court Justice and issues about the contract for ambulances.

In a counter press conference, Nana Boakye, alias Nana B, hours after that of the NDC, said Dame was going on with his job as A-G and that the case of the financial loss in respect to the ambulances would be tried in court, not in the media.

"He won't resign today or tomorrow, he will continue in his role as is fit as an Attorney-General.

"Your doctored, fake, cut-and-paste tape is headed nowhere. He will continue his job, we would meet in court to discuss the case not in public," he stressed.

Nana B spoke after the NPP's head of legal affairs, Frank Davies, also discredited the said tape and insisted that Dame was still in charge as A-G and that the NDC's schemes would not stop the prosecution of Ato Forson, the Minority Leader, who is the first accused in the matter.
