The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress, Asiedu Nketia, lied about claims that he was attacked by masked men holding firearms, an eyewitness has claimed.
Joe Forson, who claimed to have witness the incident, said Mr Nketia was not attacked.
He said the NDC scribe was only briefed about the development and that he was shocked by the twist Mr Nketia added to the story in multiple media interviews.

“Am shocked at Asiedu Nketia’s claims…it is never true. Nobody was tortured. It is not good for an old man like him to be lying through his teeth at this age when the country has moved on…,” a businessman, Joe Forson, who claimed to have witnessed the incident narrated on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme Tuesday.
“He [Asiedu Nketia] called me this morning to listen to the true version so he can change his old untrue account on radio…,” Joe Forson claimed.
“I want to meet Asiedu Nketia and his driver so I can challenge him on these claims. Am shocked an old man like him can make these unsubstantiated claims…,” he said.
