The opposition National Democratic Congress [NDC] says they are “solidly” behind a beleaguered member about to stand trial for causing financial loss to the state; former Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD), Dr. Stephen Opuni.
The party’s National Organiser, Kofi Adams noted that “We (NDC) won’t allow them (NPP) to go ahead with their scheme to destroy the man (Opuni).”
Dr. Stephen Opuni, together with businessman and CEO of Zeera Group of Companies, Seidu Agongo and Agricult Ghana Limited, have been slapped with with 27 charges of defrauding by false pretence, contravention of the Public Procurement Act, corruption of public officer, money laundering among other various offences.
The two individuals and a company, according to the state, connived to defraud the state of GHC 43, 120,000.
The case will be up for hearing at the High Court in Accra on Friday, 23rd March 2018.
Dr. Opuni had his assets including his accounts, frozen by the Economic and Organised Crimes Office (EOCO) in February 2017.
Speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’, Mr. Adams said “It’s just a calculated attempt to tarnish the big man’s image but we won’t allow them to go ahead with their scheme to destroy the man. We want him to know that we are solidly behind him and we will make sure that he comes out victorious.”

Charlie Kofi you're saying this to solicit support when the long arm of Hon. Martin Amidu's Special Prosecution Office reaches you. Your support won't change any stealer in this country to be clean. It is only by showing how genuine one's acquisitions were made when hurled before the courts that matters not party support. So you folks and every stealer in GH no matter where they belong on the political divide must GIRD THEIR LOINS.
Kofi Adamu is ***barred word***=t=i=n=g in his pants. He will face justice soon. Some fellow Ghanaians are drinking water from the same source as sheep, cows and dogs/ and some kids are 'attending' school under trees or in dilapidated buildings. The billions that you m=o=t=h=e=r=f=u=c=k=e=r=s stole could help alleviate the suffering of these fellow Ghanaians. All ***barred word***...whether they are NPP, CPP, NDC, KKP, MNP or whatever...should be kept in prison until they die.
Kofi Adams are the types that make NDC unattractive to serious intellectuals.Such empty talks drive away smart brains and only make NDC poorer in knowledge but perhaps richer for fooolish goons like Kofi Adams
Massa if he gave you part of the booty, be ready to face the courts. No one gives a dan~n of your no1ce. You can even cry blood, law is law!
Kofi adamu I am stating emphatically that u r ssstttuupit fuull. Prepare 4 ur time to tell Ghanaians where u had those monies to buy those V8s. Avuu koklo fiavi to. Bayifoo ba
Kofi u think we are f o o o old. We will never support corruption let him go defend himself.
I NEVER KNEW THIS GUY WAS SUCH A BIG F..O.O.O.O.O.O.L
Kofi I would be very happy if you will ask Mr. General secretary of your party why he is not backing Mr. Opuni, or some of your members who visited him in his office as cocobod chief executive. They will tell you who mr. Opuni was in office. we are all ndc members but please don't say things you have no idea of. Go to cocoa house and ask find out. just renovation of his bungalow alone can put him in jail
THIS FOOLISSH MAN WHAT CAN HE DO?GHANA PAAA DE3.I BLAME NANA ADDO FOR BEEN SLOW ON THIS NDC GUYS.
What did that their one- term president not do?The montie 3 is still fresh in our memories.The 😎👔👙💪👎has already shown them the way so they see that as normal.The ba*ttle-line has been drown between them (the NDCs,although not all of them)against the President with the good people who wishes and reasons positively for our beloved nation.Fellow ones,why are we wasting our precious time on this issue as if they are coming back anytime soon. Their next time of coming back will be in the 2080s(that is if the party will still be in existence).
