Boateng Gyan confesses to 'murder' tape

...& Threatens To 'Settle With' Editor!

Mr. Yaw Boateng Gyan, the NDC National organizer, has confirmed that he is the man heard on the tape saying that he would give National Security tags to hoodlums of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) during election 2012 to cause trouble and mayhem.

He told The Daily Searchlight yesterday that he was the man on the tape, but threatened our editor that if he went to write any 'nonsense' he would not go to court, but would 'settle' with him personally.

According to him, if this newspaper writes anything derogatory about him, he would not go to court or a police station, but would settle things between him and the editor.

The Daily searchlight had called up Mr. Boateng Gyan to react to a 35-minute taped conversation between him and goons of the NDC at a secret meeting at an unknown location.

The NDC national organizer told the goons about the party's plan to draft them into a special force whose members would later on be given National Security identification cards to enable them move freely and cause trouble in some parts of the country during the national elections.

He noted that plans were far advanced by the the party to issue the National Security ID cards to the hoodlums, but the NDC was being careful due to the weird manner in which some of the goons behaved in public sometime ago when the party engaged their services.

According to him, the National Security would, at the eleventh hour to the 2012 polls, complain about lack of staff who would be feeding them with vital information.

He said the NDC would quickly push the Special Force members who would be on standby into the National Security for training so that they could work for the party under the guise of being National Security operatives.

The organizer said the goons' maiden assignment ahead of the polls would be to immediately divide themselves into groups and visit the various regions of the country to monitor those behind the NDP, which was believed to be an offshoot of the NDC.

He said the regional organizers of the NDC across the country, with the exception of the organizer in the Brong Ahafo region, would welcome them into the regions and assist them to embark on their operations.

The tape, which was played on the airwaves in Kumasi on Tuesday morning, captured the voice stating that the organizer in the Brong Ahafo Region could not be trusted so the party had made prior arrangement for a DCE in Sunyani to welcome the goons that would visit their area.

He asked the NDC hoodlums to report back to him about those pulling the strings for the NDP across the regions when they were through with their task, but he did not mention what he would do with that vital information.

The tape, which was conversational in nature, at a point captured the goons complaining bitterly about the deplorable nature of the car they had been using for their operations, asking for a new car which could help them flee the scene and avoid arrest when their illegal operations became problematic.

The voice immediately urged the NDC hoodlums not to bother about the car problem, assuring them that plans were far advanced by the party to give a white land-cruiser and pick up vehicles for their illegal operations.

The NDC to gun also disclosed his 'wicked' plan against the NPP, urging the hoodlums not to panic whilst they embarked on their illegal actions, stating that when their operations became public, the NDC would smartly push the blame on the NPP.

He stated that the NDC would quickly attribute the troubles and bloodshed being undertaken by the party's hoodlums in some parts of the country to the opposition NPP, with the flimsy excuse that Nana Akufo-Addo 'All die Be Die' mantra was in motion.

The goons at a point asked about the financial rewards the party had arranged for them for the dangerous exercise and Boateng Gyan quickly assured that plans had been made to compensate them heavily with cash and other rewards should they carry out their assignment to perfection.

The NDC had set up what it called a 'Hero Fund' to reward hoodlums.

He claimed that the ministry of finance had been notified by the party to make monies available so that the goons and their wives could benefit fr and live comfortable lives, hopefully when the NDC emerged the winner in the December elections.
