Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt Jnr., has backed pundits calling for an immediate investigation into the alleged audio recording of a conversation between Attorney-General Godfred Yeboah-Dame and the third accused person in the ongoing ambulance case against Minority Leader Cassiel Ato Forson, Richard Jakpa.
The National Democratic Congress (NDC) released a 16-minute recording in which Mr Jakpa recently alleged that the Attorney-General had prompted him to provide false testimony against Minority Leader Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson in the ongoing ambulance case.
The recording purportedly captures a conversation between Godfred Dame and Jakpa, wherein Dame allegedly coached Jakpa on the statements to make in court, targeting Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.
According to Kwesi Pratt, the content of the leaked tape cannot be swept under the carpet.
Speaking in a media interview he said, All my working life I’ve been working with tapes I’ve listened to the tape where the Attorney General is asking Jakpa to go for a false medical report…if you hear this allegation and dismiss it offhand, what are you doing? This is not an issue to be ignored. The allegation is serious enough to warrant an investigation.
