National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party, Henry Nana Boakye, has rendered an unqualified apology to Ghanaians and listeners of Asempa FM for his repulsive attitude during the station's Political Show, 'Ekosi sen' on Friday.
He says his decision to apologise is based on "sober reflection", and that he remains "committed to decent, issue-based discourse" on our airwaves and that this unfortunate incident will not be repeated.
Nana B was spotted in a video knocking the head of Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, in an aggressive manner.
The incident happened in the studios of Asempa FM during a live discussion with some two other panelists.
In a statement signed by the NPP National Youth Organizer, he explained that; "regardless of the repulsive, provocative conduct by the NDC's National Communications Director on the show which included unacceptable verbal attacks on the President and myself, I am, upon sober reflection, apologising to listeners of Asempa FM and Ghanaians for the manner in which I responded".
I remain committed to decent, issue-based discourse on our airwaves and that this unfortunate incident will not be repeated," the statement added.
He has however, cautioned Sammy Gyamfi, to be decorous and respectful in his public utterances during such engagements and to, at all times, respect the high office of the President.

APOLOGY TO ASEMPA FM LISTENERS AND GHANAIANS
I refer to the events which took place yesterday on Asempa FM's Political Talk Show, 'Ekosisen'.
Regardless of the repulsive, provocative conduct by the NDC's National Communications Director on the show which included unacceptable verbal attacks on the President and myself, I am, upon sober reflection, apologising to listeners of Asempa FM and Ghanaians for the manner in which I responded.
I wish to assure all that, I remain committed to decent, issue-based discourse on our airwaves and that this unfortunate incident will not be repeated.
I will also encourage my junior brother, Sammy Gyamfi, to be decorous and respectful in his public utterances during such engagements and to, at all times, respect the high office of the President.
Thank you.
Signed
Henry Nana Boakye (Nana B)
National Youth Organizer, New Patriotic Party

Sammy Gyamfi should stop insulting the president or he will get more slaps even Nana B only pushed his head and he deserve more blows than that.
Look at this Nana B ediot, he looks like a copse who has opened his eyes. Such a glutton is all npp could get as youth organizer. He is like a pregnant pig.
The misbehavior of the npp's youth organizer asempa fm studios on Friday and subsequently slapping sammy gyamfi comfirms the allegations that he and sammy awuku instigated the ayawaso shooting with bryan acheampong as their leader. He first heckled sammy gyamfi from speaking and later stood up to slap him. If we have these group of thugs leading npp, with an all die be die president then Ghana is in big trouble. This is why i agree with the former president that they should be met boot for boot. As Bryan acheampong the earlier nana addo sacked him the better. He has confessed that he send those thugs round to cause mayhem on ndc supporters and faithfuls. The former president mahama should speak to most of our AU PRESIDENTS to impress upon nana addo to stop this non sense.
Render the apology to Sammy Gyamfi first before the good people of Ghana. With the kind of work you do, there will be provocation, but you must be able to restrain yourself no matter the degree of provocation... Such behaviour can affect your desire for higher political office in future...
