Omane Boamah Responds To Prof. Ahwoi – Refutes Claims Of “Grand Agenda” Against Rawlings

One time Communications Minister, Dr. Edward Omane Boamah has distanced himself from claims of being part of a young group of young politicians groomed to attack founder of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Jerry John Rawlings.

Dr. Omane Boamah in a statement noted that his defence of late ex-President Mills was based on his respect towards him and not part of a grand scheme towards attacking ex-President Rawlings as alleged by Prof. Ahwoi in his book, “Working with Rawlings”.

A portion of his statement read;

“I have read excerpts of the Prof. Kwamena Ahwoi’s Book, “Working with Rawlings” that appear to suggest I was among a group of young politicians, who were purposely engaged by him and others to respond to and “talk back” at former President Rawlings for the latter’s attacks on the personality of the late President of Ghana, His Excellency John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills. Respectfully, I need to place on record that this claim is wholly and completely inaccurate and untrue. As a young man and politician with core convictions, I was never engaged nor could I have allowed myself to be used by anyone to talk back at former President Rawlings.”
