Kwesi Pratt, the Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, has described as silly and unbelievable claims by the opposition New Patriotic Party that he benefitted from the GH¢51.2 million judgment debt wrongfully paid to Alfred Woyome.
Nana Akomea, NPP’s Communications Director, Nana Akomea at a news conference in Accra Monday alleged that Mr Woyome wrote down the names of all the beneficiaries of the money and indicated the exact reasons why the money is being paid to them.
According to Nana Akomea, the key beneficiaries include;
(a)A GHC1 million payment was made to the NDC party on 15 February 2011
(b)GHC75,000 was given to Professor Awunor on 28 June 2011
(c)GHC60,000 was given to Jewel Ackah on 16 June 2011
(d)GHC20,000 was given to NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia
popularly known as General Mosquito on 2 September 2011
(e)GHC60,000 former head of Agricultural Development Bank (ADB), Steve Kpordzih 2011
(f)GHC8,000 to one Suhyini of Radio Gold in 2011
(g)GHC2,000 Managing Editor of Insight Newspaper, Kwesi Pratt in 2011
(h)GHC15,000 to NDC branch in Hohoe in 2011
(i)GHC42,000 to NDC to buy 30 motorbikes
(j)GHC100,000 to NDC Deputy General Secretary, Koku Anyidoho

(l)GHC13,000 NDC Deputy General Secretary, Koku Anyidoho 1 May 2011
(m)GHC30,000 8 February 2011 to NDC Greater Accra Regional Chairman, Ade Coker
But Mr Kwesi Pratt has told pulse.com.gh that the allegations are silly and shows desperation on the part of the NPP.
“This is extremely silly. It’s so silly; it’s unbelievable. This can only be a sign of desperation on their part. What is this? That you find somebody’s name with 2000 cedis by it and therefore we took part of Woyome’s money; it’s so silly…what is politics coming to. It’s just incredible. I can’t believe that this has happened; I can’t believe that they’ve been so silly,” he said

THIS IS NOT THE ONLY MONEY KWASI PRATT HAS BEEN PAID BY HIS PAY MASTERS. NDC HAS PAID A LOT OF STOLEN MONIES TO KWASI THAT IS WHY HE IS ALWAYS DEFENDING MAHAMA EVEN WHEN NDC IS WRONG. SHAME ON YOU KWASI PRATT. BE READY TO GO TO JAIL BECAUSE NANA IS COMING AND YOU ARE IN TROUBLE
This shameful Prat can denied this because he did same when he betrayed his best friend kwaku baako to be arrested during the Rawlings revolution days.He is a stomach journalist why is he not dening his diplomatic passport when it came up during Ametefe's cocaine case? Shame to you.
Kwesi Pratt, did you receive the 2,000 Ghana or not?. This is not a silly question.Take Nana Akomeah to court if he dreamt about this monkey business. Any Insight about this?
Am very surprised many npp supporters believe this story. Why will Nana Akomea wait for 5 years before bringing this information 2 days to elections This would not win the elections. Cheap way of campaigning
Nana Akomea, you did well with this 'expose' but i will also be glad if you will talk about the recovery levy money paid to senior journalists like Kweku Baako , Egbert Fabille etc. or you don't believe that money ought to be paid back to government chest. or is a situation of NPP having the right to misuse GH money but others have no right.
We have ***barred word*** here who are insultng Pratt..at leats they clicked on the news item and read it even though they saw his name...the truth hurts, Kwesi just speaks the truth... not just claiming he has some facts pulled from no where, he speaks the truth and his mind...Kwesi y3 no saaa
Nana Akomea, why did you leave out Sir John who has publicly admitted taking a RAV 4 from him, what about the 500,000 pounds to the former chief of staff meant for former president Kuffour? selective justice indeed. what desperation
KWA*SEA PRAT IS ALREADYU A S1LLY PERSON. SHAME. AW1111
