I spoke with Andy Appiah-Kubi before filing the application to help Chairman Wontumi, only for him to turn around and publicly deny any knowledge of it. How do you betray someone like that? I've blocked his number and won't speak to him again. This is not how colleagues should behave - Gary Nimako Marfo, Director of Legal Affairs, New Patriotic Party.

The GH₵50 million bail condition for Wontumi's release is a trap set by EOCO. Anyone who comes forward with that amount will be questioned about the source of their assets and subjected to a full investigation, which makes us scared to come forward. - Paul Yandoh, Ashanti Regional Communications Director, NPP

"I stand by my official contract and termination letters dated December 16, 2016. If Okudzeto Ablakwa claims otherwise, I challenge him to provide evidence. The facts are clear: I am not a thief, nor have I ever stolen from the state."

The Rambo-style arrest of Wontumi and the harsh treatment of the Chief Justice should make the NDC reflect, are they ready for the precedent they're setting? Power will eventually change hands, and they must be prepared to face the same treatment they've made normal. - Dennis Miracles Aboagye, aide to Bawumia

What we're seeing is a clear abuse of power! Wontumi was arrested in a rambo-style like a hardened criminal, and neither we nor his lawyer have been allowed to see him - Henry Nana Boakye, NPP National Organiser, explains.

MUST LISTEN: The Washington Embassy staff member, Fred Kwarteng, is a bad boy. As Head of Information and Public Affairs to the US, I investigated him several times and uncovered serious misconduct. He then tried to bribe me with $10,000 monthly to stay silent and said senior officials were protecting him. - Kofi Tonto exposes the deep rot at Ghana's Washington Embassy.

The cedi's rise against the dollar is no news; it began before we left power. Even if Mahama keeps it at 2 cedis, Ghanaians will still vote against him in 2028. - Collins Owusu Amankwah, Former MP for Manhyia North.

CCTV footage allegedly showing Thaddeus Sory meeting with some judges involved in the Chief Justice case doesn't worry me, because even if I saw the judge handling my client's case sitting in a restaurant with the opposing lawyer, I wouldn't be concerned. - Edudzi Tamakloe, Director of Legal Affairs, NDC.

I have all the evidence to prove that three judges met at a restaurant to discuss the removal of the Chief Justice. Even the petitioner's lawyer later joined the conversation, but we are allowing the President enough time to thoroughly consider the petition. - Alfred Ababio Kumi (NPP)

“It is the innovative vision and experienced leadership of President Mahama, backed by his appointees and Goldbod's strategic economic dealings, that has helped strengthen the cedi against the dollar.” - Dr. Samuel Ayeh, Presidency Communications.

The minority in parliament must stop dragging the Sammy Gyamfi dollar gift saga. Ghana has bigger battles to fight than this petty distraction. - Omanhene Kwabena Asante, Host of Badwam on Adom TV, fires!

"The President's code of conduct doesn't clearly ban appointees from giving gifts, so there's no ground to punish Sammy Gyamfi. However, the Presidency has accepted his apology and firmly warned him and all appointees to avoid repeating this mistake. Sammy Gyamfi has also promised it won't happen again."

The government has pursued prosecution for the 89kg cocaine bust but remains silent on the $350 million and $150 million worth of cocaine Mahama called a high-profile seizure in Takoradi. Why the silence? Where is the cocaine? I've instructed my lawyer, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, to file an RTI request to track it down.- Rev. John Ntim Fordjour, MP for South Dayi

The fact that two judges saw merit in my application to stop the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo gives me confidence; I'm considering seeking a review. - Vincent Ekow Assafuah, MP for Old Tafo.

The NDC came to power with no plan, just empty promises to turn Ghanaians against the NPP and win votes. Now, reality is dawning on them. - Dennis Miracles Aboagye, Communications Director for the 2024 Bawumia Campaign

"The NPP NEC and National Council did not agree to a thank you tour, and a thank you tour isn't what we need as a defeated party. Our focus should be on addressing the causes of our defeat, reflecting on the Ocquaye Committee report, and planning for Election 2028." - ING. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong, Former General Secretary of the NPP. (Hear more in this interview as he sheds light on his proposed constitutional reforms to the NPP Amendment Committee.)

The KNUST boy's stabbing has nothing to do with Kennedy Agyapong or Dr. Bawumia. Kwasi Kwarteng should stop misleading the public with false claims. - Dennis Miracles Aboagye, Director of Communications for Dr. Bawumia's 2024 campaign.

“In response to the President's pledge to donate half of his salary to the initiative, I too am contributing my three months' salary to support the Ghana Medical Trust Fund. This is a cause I deeply believe in, and I hope our collective efforts will make a meaningful impact in improving healthcare access for those battling chronic illnesses,”

"The prima facie case the president claims to have established in the suspension of the Chief Justice is baseless; he didn't follow due process in her removal, and he has sinned against the Constitution."

Just as President Mahama can travel with his family without being questioned, why is Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo being targeted for doing the same? If this is the so-called prima facie case the government claims to have against her, they must realize they are setting a dangerous precedent that any government could follow. - Rev. John Ntim Fordjour, MP for Assin South.

An attack on press freedom is an attack on the rule of law and democracy. We demand that NPP's Third Vice Chairman, Alhaji Osman Masawudu, retract his threat against General Media journalists or face arrest. - Albert Kwabena Dwumfour, GJA President

Chief Justice Sophia Akufo's abstention from the removal process of Justice Torkornoo was thoughtful, but I expect her to make her reasons public. - Andrew Egyapa Mercer, Former MP for Sekondi.

By policy, Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo is entitled to travel with her bodyguard on private trips at the state's expense. If she chooses to take anyone else, she must cover the cost herself. But she ignored this policy, recklessly spent 2.8 billion cedis of public funds on luxury business class tickets for her husband and daughter, gave them per diems in dollars, and has openly admitted to it. -Sammy Gyamfi, Acting CEO, Goldbod.

Questions are being raised about Chief Justice Torkornoo's political ties, as NPP members and their lawyers continue to defend her publicly. But critics insist that the removal process must follow through to the end—firmly and fairly, without fear or favour - Nana Yaa Jantuah, Presidential Staffer

None of us in the NPP has seen our election defeat report except the executives, so ignore the trash from these weed smokers and fake agenda setters on social media. They're spewing nonsense with zero credibility. - Sam Pyne (Former KMA Boss)

The Petroleum Hub project in Jomoro is a game-changing government initiative that, once completed, will allow Ghana to refine its oil locally, instead of exporting it raw. -Toni Aubynn, CEO, Petroleum Hub and Development Corporation.

I'll demolish all Adum Market fire-hit buildings. The traders, backed by the NPP, should stop wasting cement and money on repairs. - King Zuba, Kumasi Mayor

My client, NPP activist Mohammed Zakou's 'rest well' social media post for the Vice President was a prayer for her recovery, not a death wish. - Lawyer Enoch Afoakwa, Private Legal Practitioner.

If this government is genuinely determined to uncover the truth behind the Ghana Airport money laundering saga, the MD of Ghana Airport Company must be sacked, unless my suspicions are right and she's the one feeding them information in exchange for her job. - Kwesi Botchway Jnr, NPP National Communication Team Member

President Mahama personally called me yesterday to explain the existing constitutional law which states that persons under the age of 25 are not permitted to operate commercial motorcycle transport. However, we do not support this law. - Akpanaba Solomon, Spokesperson for Okada Riders

We will not allow Rev. Ntim Fordjour's arrest today. The NIB has no authority to make a forced arrest using guns on him. However, tomorrow, the Minority Leader will escort him to the NIB to assist with the investigation. - NPP National Organizer, Henry Nana Boakye

What exactly is the government afraid of? Why hasn't the investigation into the suspicious flight commenced, as directed by President John Mahama? And why is Felix Kwakye Ofosu all over the place, dismissing the matter as if it's nothing serious? - Hon. Samuel Abu Jinapor (MP for Damongo and Ranking Member on the Foreign Affairs Committee)

I personally wrote a letter to the joint security agencies, requesting a meeting to discuss the issue. We all agreed that the letter should be addressed with everyone's knowledge. However, the NDC leadership blocked it and reportedly sent their own letter instead
