The office of former President John Dramani Mahama has refuted claims that the supposed diplomatic passport embattled Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Menzgold, Nana Appiah Mensah alias NAM 1 was issued under the erstwhile National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration.

Third Vice Chair of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Michael Omari Wadie is reported to have made claimed during a radio discussion in response to allegations by the Deputy General Secretary of the NDC Peter Otokunor, that President Nana Addo Dankwa  Akufo-Addo almost appointed NAM 1 as the Minister of Trade and Industry.

But a statement issued from the office of Mr Mahama  copied to MyNewsGh.com and signed by Joyce Bawah Mogtari who is his Special Aide said the claims were deliberate attempts to drag former President John Mahama and other executives of the NDC into the unfolding MenzGold saga.

Read the full text of the response below;

There appears a desperate attempt, unsuccessful so far, by the NPP to drag former President John Mahama and other executives of the NDC into the unfolding MenzGold saga.

Fact though is that, neither Mr. Mahama nor his wife have any investments in MenzGold and the spurious claims by the NPP’s vice chairman that Nana Appiah was issued with a diplomatic passport by the NDC administration is just what it is, spurious and false.

Such lies being peddled by an obviously desperate government will not change the views and disappointments of Ghanaians in the Nana Addo administration.

Thank you
