The party’s National Communications Officer, Sammy Gyamfi in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’, December 2, 2020, made a revelation regarding the unfortunate death of Ahmed Hussein-Suale.

He linked the killing to the alleged bribe video purporting to suggest that the then-candidate Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo took a bribe.

According to him, the member of Anas Amereyaw Anas’ Tiger Eye Private Investigations team was mistaken by another person who is believed to have recorded now President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo taking bribe.
