Alhaji Naziru Mohammed, an aspiring deputy National Propaganda Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has described IMANI Ghana President�s apology to Paul Adom Otchere, host of "Good Evening Ghana" programme, as half hearted. According to him, Franklin Cudjoe�s request for forgiveness from Paul Adom Otchere after alleging that President Mahama had bribed him to appear on his (Paul Adom Otchere�s) show, was lukewarm and must be rejected. ��if you allege bribery, it means, there is a giver and a taker. So if you have found the need to say sorry to Paul, why would you not extend that to the President too if you really mean your apology? This is an indication of the sheer hatred for the President by Franklin Cudjioe and his cohorts,� Alhaji Naziru Mohammed said in an interview with Peacefmonline.com. It would be recalled that the President of IMANI Ghana said sorry to the Mr. Adom Otchere over allegations that he took �soli� from President Mahama after an interview last Thursday. This was after he and Financial Analyst, Sydney Casely-Hayford on Citi�s Big Issue over the weekend asked how much Adom Otchere was paid to have the President on his show. The Host of "Good Evening Ghana" however, did not take the comment lightly which prompted a quick apology from Mr. Cudjoe but Alhaji Naziru Mohammed is of the view that the IMANI boss should have asked for forgiveness from President Mahama too. ��If he is saying that Paul took money from the President after appearing on the show, it is strange because both Sydney Casley-Hayford and Franklin Cudjoe have been on that show many times. Are they telling us they also paid to get on it? This is how they go around tarnishing the reputation of hard working people,� the deputy Propaganda Secretary aspirant fumed.
