Akufo-Addo’s Gov’t Has Persecuted Anas Even Though He Promised To Use The Anas Principle In Opposition – Mahama
NDC Flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama has said in an interview on Class FM that the government of President Akufo-Addo has persecuted renowned Investigative Journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas than any other government.
According to the former President, even though the President claimed that he was going to use the Anas principle to fight corruption when voted into power, he has done the exact opposite.
“And, so, even though President Akufo-Addo said he is going to use the Anas Principle, I think that today, Anas has been more persecuted than he’s ever been”, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) told Benjamin Akakpo in an exclusive interview on Class91.3FM’s Executive Breakfast Show on Monday, 14 September 2020.
He said: “There are times he [Anas] felt his life threatened; of course, in the kind of things he does, there’s the kind of danger, every day of personal harm to your person but this time, he’s never felt more threatened than he’s ever been in all his career”.
