Private legal practitioner, Maurice Ampaw has questioned the ruling New Patriotic Party’s [NPP] reason for keeping its founding member, Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe in the party.
According to him, Mr. Nyaho-Tamakloe does not deserve to be a member of the ‘Elephant’ fraternity after describing him as an “Unprincipled” elder.
“NPP must sack that Nyaho-Tamakloe from the party. What is happening in the NPP? If they could have punished Paul Afoko and Kwabena Agyapong, why are they keeping Nyaho-Tamakloe in the party? They should sack him with immediate effect,” he said.
The lawyer was responding to Nyaho-Tamakloe’s claims that “Ibrahim Mahama's enemies will fail.”
Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe has accused government of witch hunting Ibrahim Mahama after the Economic and Organised Crimes Office (EOCO) invited the latter for questioning on Tuesday.
Mr. Mahama who is a brother to former president John Mahama was invited by EOCO for questioning over some dud cheques he issued to the Customs division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) at the Tema Ports to clear some heavy duty equipment he imported into the country.
It can be recalled that the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyepong alleged on Oman FM in March this year that Mahama defrauded the state some GHS14million.
He thus promised to commit suicide if the government did not incarcerate Ibrahim Mahama.
But Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe stated that Mr. Ibrahim Mahama who happens to be his nephew did not defraud the state to acquire his riches.
Speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show dubbed ‘Ghana Montie’, Lawyer Maurice Ampaw was marveled at Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe assertion.
“I thought he [Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe] is highly-principled? What is he talking about? It’s a shame for him to even call himself a party member. He is a disgrace to the party. Nyaho-Tamakloe should be fired and join the NDC,” he stated.

This ampaw too, does he smoke weed or what. Ibrahim is nyaho's nephew, so if he is in trouble and the uncle is saying his enemies will fail, what has it got to do with NPP. Even you who was defending a young woman who was old enough to have fun with asamoah Gyan, claiming she had been raped, in order to swindle money from Gyan, had the effrontery to tell Ghanaians that they would fail for saying the girl was lying. There are so many knuckleheads in NPP who need to be suspended but not someone who is genuinely showing solidarity to his nephew. What type of evil persons do we have in Ghana.
It is not a matter of him issuing posted cheques. In the first place you are suppose to make payment before you clear the goods it is not on credit and secondly why must the cheque bounce stop looking at things in the political lens of the NDC and attack issues like discerning person
I wish the N P P does not respond to comments from this con man called tamakloe, the man knows he is becoming irrelevant and will therefore make noise occasionally for people to know he is still around. As the saying goes, if a ***barred word*** picks your trousers when you are bathing, you go don't out naked and chasing him for your trousers, people will then be seeing two mad men. N P P should just see tamakloe as irrelevant and open the N P P,s dustbin any time he comments about the party or government.
Kwesi and Mensah, maybe you do not understand what are DUD CHEQUES. It is when you write a cheque to be withdrawn on your account and the drawee upon presentation, the cheque is dishonoured or returned. By the laws of Ghana, it is a criminal offence and a strict liability as such. I do not want to enlighten you further when the law says some offences are "Strict Liability", because that can be too technical for both of you now. As a banker we have arrested a lot of clients based on this evidence alone. What Ibrahim Mahama did was a Criminal Offence and for somebody of his stature, a further offence of intention to defraud the state is well establish due to the fact that he is a brother of a sitting president. Let us discuss this issue devoid of party politics and concentrate on the state. Ibrahim is and was perpetuating fraud and actually committed fraud when he issued the cheque , knowing that it will return. In actual fact the bank charges an amount of each returned cheque when your account is subsequently and sufficiently funded. I am sorry to say that Ibrahim Mahama is a th1ef not different from those numerous bank customers and 419 clients.
Has Dr. Tamakloe ever been an NPP member? I wonder ooooo. CHeck the colour of his smock, does it predict NPP colours? Na waa ooooo
Long overdue. Nyaho is an NDC mole hiding in NPP. He must be dismiss from NPP. simple!
Lawyer you have said it all. What is the party waiting for with this shame1ess man calling himself as a elder of the party. Nyaho is just a cr00kish old man like his Nephews .
Lawyer you're right. Well spoken. This is simple reasoning as patriotic citizen. I wonder if these submissions are true reasoning of the/so called dignitaries personalities. Then some of us must be their gods, cuz we reason higher. Whaaaaaat.
All payments towards duty at the port is by bank draft so why post dated checks.That is the issue here so please address that ans stop insulting Lawyer Ampaw
What is exactly wrong about Dr Tamakloe's defence of Ibrahim Mahama, his nephew? This lawyer has problem of understanding issues and I wonder who on earth will hire such a layer. God save Ghana
