NPP denies bomb plant allegation

Ex-President Kufuor’s former Spokesperson Kwabena Agyapong has derided claims that some of the party’s activists planted a bomb under a high voltage transformer of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG).

Today’s edition of the Herald newspaper claims officials of the Ghana armed forces de-activated the dynamite upon a tip off.

The paper links the bomb to alleged acerbic comments recently made by some NPP activists at a rally organized at Taifa by pressure group ‘LET MY VOTE COUNT’.

But Mr. Kwabena Adjapong has described as laughable the attempt to link the NPP to the reported incident.

Speaking on Metro TV Monday morning, Mr. Agyapong said it would be a strange attempt to link the bomb detected to any NPP member.

But presidential spokesperson, John Jinapor says the presidency has information some persons are attempting to make the country ungovernable for the President.

He said the President will do everything possible to ensure that the country remains calm and peaceful.
