NPP-UK Denies Meeting Sammy Awuku….Rubbishes Tape Content

NPP Branch in the United Kingdom (UK) has denied knowledge of any leaked tape purported to be the voice of the party's Deputy Communications Director in Ghana, regarding the Justices of the Supreme Court and some leading members of the party.

The NPP-UK branch, expressing its denial of the said tape, discounted reports that Sammy Awuku's voice was recorded during his meeting with them in London.

According to the branch Chairman, Hayford Atta-Krufi, Sammy Awuku, though paid a familiar visit to the United Kingdom, he however did not have any meetings with members of the party.

Mr. Atta Krufi, speaking in an interview with Radio Gold on Monday, revealed that “Sammy Awuku was in London but at the time, our party had held all our meetings. We’d had our June meetings before he came and he was not here when we had our July meeting. Our July meeting was held on the 28th of July, he was not in London," and so, to him, the voice on the leaked tape "couldn't be him and the party."

Sammy Awuku, he continued, only went to London on "a private visit. There was no interaction between him and the party. We never had any meeting with him; so, it really surprises me that there’s some alleged tape flying around in Ghana.”

A supposed tape recording of the voice of the Deputy Communications Director of the opposition NPP is currently circulating on the air waves, igniting discussions on social media platforms and radio.

On the tape, Sammy Awuku is heard pontificating that with the exception of the Presiding Justice of the nine-member panel sitting on the pending election case, Justice William Atuguba, the eight others can be said to be sympathizers of the NPP.

But following the leakage of the alleged “Awuku Tape”, the NPP Communicator has come out to issue a strongly-worded disclaimer, describing the tape recording as a fabrication intended to dent his image.
