The Chairman of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Samuel Ofusu-Ampofo is to reappear before the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service on Tuesday, 12 March 2019, over a probe into his alleged comments captured on a secret recording.
Mr Ofosu-Ampofo is alleged to have incited verbal attacks against the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC) and the Chairman of the National Peace Council.
He reported to the CID for interrogations on Monday and then on Thursday but the process could not be completed.
Addressing the press afterwards, Mr Ofosu-Ampofo maintained that his integrity cannot be stained by a doctored tape, adding that the government ought to focus on resolving outstanding national issues, including the depreciation of the Ghana cedi instead of making political gains from his interrogation.
"They have told us that they are still carrying out their investigation, we are going and we will be reporting back on Tuesday", he said.
He said never has he insulted anybody or "acted against state authority" in his political career which spans close to 30 years.
In his view, the developments "are diversionary", but "we want to remain focused in winning 2020".
He said if there is an arrest to be made, the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) government should "focus on the US Dollar that has escaped and running away, and not focus on Ofosu-Ampofo. I am not a security threat to this country".

Ofosu Ampofo kyereponni eeeeeiiii you're FAKE PENTECOST ELDER shame on you, your family, your INCOMPETENT party and your country period
You see when you are in a party like the ndc you will always be in trouble because both old and young a f000*00ls! I font even know the kind of medications their mothers took during pregnancy they sound to f00*0lish and arrogant the end result of arrogance is jail, when he is sentenced to jail there will be no mahama to use executive order to release him so let him make his face like ogyimifuo and bofrot and talk ***barred word***! he is not above the laws of the land and ndc doesn't own Ghana and we are in a new era, stu*pidity has no room in this present Ghana!
No one is above the law. The law must be allowed to work. If he's found guilty, he must be punished in accordance with what the law says. His status and stature in the NDC party should, in no way, interfere with the outcome of the investigation.
A wise man once said "all die be die" who arrested him? He even said "kume preko" and others followed him to deathh, now he's swimming in taxes! Those of you following politicians must be having a good reason.
Look at that fooolissh face of his. You think what's going on is a joke. When you have been caught in a criminal act, you are talking about depreciating cedi. You wait; when you face the court in the coming days you'll see your smoothest level.
You are just a hypocrite and this country will not progress with people like you. Worst things were said in the past where were you to insults the culprits.
Look at his togbwerrrr looking face tomoh fe. Ar=r0gan+ and without class. An apology of a so called Christian elder. Own up, apologise and s0d off the memories of decent Ghanaians.eeffuu.
It is a trap. I remember one panelist admonishing the Montie 3 to just apologize and let sleeping dogs lie. Yet, as soon as they admitted, owned up and apologized in court, they were sentenced. Meanwhile, they could have done all background work to deny. With that, it would have been difficult for the supreme court to be chasing after non-existing evidence. I bet you, all those imploring Ofosu Ampofo to simply apologize and move on, are only setting trap for him. His mere admission, apology will only result in he confirming that he uttered those words. And after that, another group of detractors will insist on he being sentenced on the basis of his own plea. Wise up Ofosu Ampofo! Wise up NDC! Politics is, and will continue to be a game. It is not for the honest or the truthful. It is only won by schemers, liars, clever, dishonest people who are efficient at covering their back. #With Weak Opposition, the Ghanaian suffers more
Elder you are the most security threat to this country of ours. do you know what makes it dangerous , you are lying on top. Atimes people says the Almighty God is' tra ho hwe'
