Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwesi Pratt has slammed the Western Regional Minister, Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah for being the first person to debunk claims by the alleged kidnapped Takoradi ''pregnant'' woman.
Josephine Panyin Mensah is said to have gone missing and was found recently at Axim unable to speak in a fashion that looked like she had gone through a traumatic experience while missing.
According to accounts, she was pregnant before her disappearance but returned showing no signs of her pregnancy nor with her baby.
As Mrs. Panyin Mensah's story went viral, the Western Regional Minister, Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah swiftly issued a counter-statement.
“From their preliminary investigations, NIB suspects that this whole story was fake and that the medical doctor who has even looked at her revealed she wasn’t pregnant. That is the immediate information that we have. The police are still with her,” the Minister stated.
Commenting on the Minister's reaction, Kwesi Pratt strongly opined that it was inappropriate for the Minister to have come out to refute the claims.
According to him, it didn't lie in the Minister's mouth to say what he said and that he should have allowed the proper structures to work.
''The Minister should allow the proper structures to deal with communication and public information. It will help them and government. It's not everything that should be said by the Minister'', he said on Peace FM's ''Kokrokoo''.

Uncle Kwesi with all your experience in politics in Ghana, if you do not know then let me tell you, regional ministers are the head of RESEC(Regional security council),who else do you want to make comments on security issues in the region?Please wise up, you are growing and do not sell your conscience for money simply because NDC has opened a TV station for you.
Infact, characters like kwesi pratt will spell doom in Ghana if not check. That rotten egg pratt sees , hears nothing wrong in Ghana when it emerges from NDC ***barred word*** leadership. First and foremost who is kwesi pratt to tell Ghanaians what is good or bad.
Kwesi Pratt's demeanor is that of one who is biased and finds nothing good about the present administration. He is unjustly too outright to criticize only for the sake of being anti-government per se.
Pratt, shame unto you and your party NDC. You are doing everything to defend your shame. Kwesi Pratt knows everything under the sun, why? You are a mere Journalists. Who should be the right person to inform Ghanaians?, tell us.
Thank you, Joe!! A Minister, who is the Chair of REGSEC, allays the fear of the public by coming out timely to tell the truth, and expose that girl, and Pratt says what? He was not the right person to do that? Nansins!!
....who should have said it first and what is the proper structure Mr know all?? You prayed and actually hoped that the story was true in other to help your propaganda of insecurity in the country.. Shame unto you and your friends.
