A Communication Aide to New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential hopeful, Dr. Kofi Konadu Apraku, has denied media attribution to him that the NPP will suffer passing the E-levy.
The publication, he said, is completely false and at best a figment of the writers own imagination, and a deliberate attempt at creating disaffection for the renowned economist.
“Nowhere did Dr. Apraku allude to the claim that NPP would pay a big price for insisting on E-Levy,” he said.
In a statement he noted that Dr. Apraku during an interview on Joy News’ PM Express – Personality Profile rather alluded to why the Minority was refusing to back the Electronic Transfer Bill 2021 if they think it would cost the NPP because it would rather provide a safe sail for them (NDC) to victory.
Read the full statement below:
My attention has been drawn to a news item attributed to Dr. Konadu Apraku captioned “We will Pay A Big Price In 2024 for Insisting on E-Levy – NPP Presidential Hopeful tells NPP” which is in circulation on social media.
It must be put on record that the publication is completely false and at best a figment of the writers own imagination, and a deliberate attempt at creating disaffection for the renowned economist.
Nowhere did Dr. Apraku allude to the claim that NPP would pay a big price for insisting on E-Levy.
Dr. Apraku during an interview on Joy News’ PM Express – Personality Profile rather alluded to why the Minority was refusing to back the Electronic Transfer Bill 2021 if they think it would cost the NPP because it would rather provide a safe sail for them (NDC) to victory.
We urge the public to take the publication with the contempt it deserves since it does not reflect what Dr. Konadu Apraku communicated during the said interview.
We also call on all and sundry to listen to the interview on https://youtu.be/PTTeBJVQLGo
