National Youth Organizer of the Progressive People’s Party, Divine Nkrumah has stated emphatically that reports surrounding the arrest of two Montie FM panelists are all a fabrication.
He believes some armchair journalists are behind the circulation of the news.
He has thus promised to make public, evidence that the two were not arrested – “People are just doing damage control. The two were not detained by BNI or National Security.”
The Bureau of National Investigations, over the weekend reportedly picked two Montie FM panelists for questioning after they had threatened Justices of the Supreme Court.
Their threats were condemned by the Ghana Bar Association, who urged the security authorities, in a statement, to arrest the two.
But PPP’s Divine Nkrumah maintain that the arrest was ‘fake’ – “What time did they [National Security] pick the two and the time they released them. I can tell you for a fact that those people were not picked up by the National Security or the BNI.”
Reliable sources hinted that Godwin Ako Gunn and Alistair Nelson, said to be a member of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) were picked up by the BNI, Sunday.
But Nkrumah is strongly denying the report. He told Akwesi Aboagye, host of NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’ that – “BNI never arrested the two panelists. It’s just a formality and I can prove that.”
Meanwhile, the PPP is said to have disowned Alistair Nelson who reportedly threatened the lives of judges in the country.
According to Divine Nkrumah, who is the PPP’s National Youth Organizer, the parety’s attention has been drawn to reports on social media – linking one Alistair Nelson (who is alleged to have threatened the lives of Supreme Court judges) as a member of the PPP, but that is absolutely false because, Alistair Nelson left a year ago.
