Embattled National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo was in the early hours of today accompanied to the headquarters of the Criminal Investigations Department in Accra by Former Attorney General, Marietta Brew Appiah-Opong and private legal practitioner Tony Lithur.

Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo was invited by the CID to answer questions about a leaked audio tape alleged to have his voice on it and making some dangerous comments that border on the country’s security.

The tape, which has become a subject for media discussion over the past week appears to have the NDC chairman condoning political violence and calling for retribution against some personalities including the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Jean Mensa.

Mr. Ofosu Ampofo in the viral leaked audio is heard outlining plans to match up against groups from the governing New Patriotic Party ahead of the 2020 elections.

He was initially expected to be at the CID head office in Accra on February 28, 2019, but did not show up.

He, however, said his lawyers have sent word to the CID of his intent to appear and assist with investigations.

Mr Ofosu Ampofo while speaking to party supporters after a Victory Health Walk in Accra, Mr Ofosu-Ampofo assured the supporters of the party that he would honour the invitation.
