A member of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Communication Team Nii Kwatei Titus Glover may in not too distance future be crown king of lies and insult so long as he continues to feature in political discourses.

Last Saturday on Radio XYZ current affairs programme called “The Analyst”, Titus once again told a lie, but unfortunately for him this time round, the Health Minister, Alban K. S. Bagbin whom he had falsely claimed had grabbed a 10-acre of state lands at Kpone-Katamanso while serving as a Minister of Water Resources, Works and Housing, called into the programme and exposed him.

Mr. Glover also alleged that Mr. Bagbin, who called from Geneva, was also bribed with a vehicle over the Kpone-Katamanso land controversy which he was called upon to mediate.

Titus, however, withdrew the allegations upon the insistence of Deputy Chief of Staff Alex Segbefia, who was also a panelist on the programme.

Prior to Titus’s apology, Mr. Bagbin had described the allegation as a blatant lie and called on the Bureau of the National Investigations (BNI), National Security and the Ghana Integrity Initiative to investigate the allegations by Mr. Glover and ascertain if he has ever acquired a 10-acre land illegally.

“This is a palpable lie and I call on the Bureau of the National Investigations, National Security, the CID and the Ghana Integrity Initiative, they should all go to the TDC and investigate whether TDC gave me a 10-acre land when they had any problem with the Kpone Traditional Council” Mr. Bagbin said.

He added that “it never happened so I am shocked that people are going round trumpeting this lie. The vehicle he is talking about was the official car for the Minister for Water Resources, Works and Housing”.

Titus has gained notoriety in spewing falsehood in most of his utterances on the airwaves; he usually attacks his political opponents as if he has taken a cue from his ex-boss, Assin North Member of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong, who once employed him at his Kencity Media Company.

Prominent among Mr. Glover’s lies is the hoax he hurriedly told on Oman Fm on the night of Mr. Agyapong’s arrest after he had gone on radio declaring war on Ewes and Gas during the Biometric Registration exercise.

Titus lied on Oman FM, owned by Mr. Agyapong, saying two NPP supporters had been killed from Police brutalities at the Police Headquarters to demand the release of the loudmouth MP and taken to the mortuary whilst many other injured supporters had also been hospitalized.

The following day, the news turned out to have been cooked from Mr. Glover’s kitchen; nevertheless, the two-times failed Tema East parliamentary candidate shamelessly refused to retract and apologize to the public who had been shocked by the news.

Titus and many others in the NPP have several times been caught spewing lies at the least opportunity. During the Atiwa by-elections, the NPP National Chairman, Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey and Madam Frances Asiam, the NPP Parliamentary candidate for Adenta claimed that two NPP supporters had been killed by members of the ruling NDC, but their claims turned out to be a lie.

Just last week, a Deputy Chief of Staff, Alex Segbefia threw a challenge to the NPP on allegations that he had used his office to acquire a large house in the plush Roman Ridge residential area at $5 million.

He has denied the allegation and wants his accusers to engage him in open debate over their claims. A denial letter issued by his counsel, Gad Motey in Accra on Wednesday, said those making the allegations sought needlessly to denigrate him and bring his hard-earned reputation into disrepute, but he is ready to challenge any one including the said persons behind the publication, that is if they actually exist, to come out boldly if they think they really have a good cause.

The letter warned that Mr. Segbefia will not hesitate to institute the appropriate action against anyone who intentionally smear him unjustly and try to bring his hard-earned reputation into disrepute if such a person or persons are identified.

Not long ago, the NPP communicators hopped from one station to the other, making an unsubstantiated allegation that some managers of newspapers had been paid thousands of United States Dollars to do propaganda for the Mills government.

They named such persons as the Managing-Editors of The Daily Post, Michael Dokosi, The Informer, Andy Kankam, The Daily Dispatch, Ben Ephson, and The Ghanaian Lens, Kobby Fiagbe amongst others.

Another claim by the NPP was spewed by the editor of the Daily Searchlight, Ken Kuranchie, who claimed that President Mills was building a mansion, which also turned out to be a lie as the said mansion was a mere security duty post that President Mills was sponsoring from his personal resources, for the police and military persons protecting his residence at the Regimanuel Gray Estates, off the Spintex road in Accra.
