The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, has dismissed claims that the Agyapadie document is a fabrication to tarnish the image of President Akufo-Addo.
The document allegedly outlines plans by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to take over critical and profitable state assets.
Despite President Akufo-Addo’s dismissal of the document as a fabrication designed to tarnish his political career, Mahama insists that the document is genuine and that its plans are being put into action.
At a durbar with Chiefs and Queen Mothers at the Bawku Palace in the Upper East Region, the former President said the document is real.
“We need to hold this government accountable for the hardship, the crisis they’ve subjected Ghana to. For the state capture that they have implemented in Ghana over the last eight years; buying state property, buying all the government land and amassing all the wealth to themselves.
“Recently, there was a document called Agyapadie, they said it was fabricated. But even if it is fabricated, the implementation is not fabricated. Because everything that is written in that document has been implemented.
“So, if really somebody sat and fabricated that document, then the person can read the minds of people. because how could they have written that document and read the minds of Nana Akufo-Addo and his family that this is what they were going to do.
“That person is a proper creative writer. Because everything in that document has been implemented and so the implementation cannot be fabricated,” he stated.
