However, the tough-talking deputy scribe has already apologized for his utterances in a statement he issued. He said, "Respectfully, I am by this letter expressing my profound apology to the President, the Vice President, the Chief of Staff, the Steering Committee, the National Executives Committee, the National Council of the New Patriotic Party and every member of the New Patriotic Party for my indiscretion".
He added: âI have learnt much lessons from this unfortunate incident, from this heavily edited, secretly recorded and intentionally mutilated audio recording or cassette; I vow not to find myself under such circumstances again. My loyalty and commitment with/to the New Patriotic Party shall ever continue to be resolute and firm. âTo err is human, and to forgive is divineâ says the sages.â
On the leaked tape, he spoke about how unfairly heâs being treated by the party as he has no official vehicle, never received any salary and has also not been awarded any contract from any of the Ministries.
