The suspended National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Paul Afoko has revealed that some members of the NPP will soon be hauled before court to be tried over their involvement in the killing of the Upper East Regional Chairman, Adams Mahama.
According to him, he has empirical evidence that some party members, who have not yet been fingered in the ongoing trial, were rather behind the murder of the former hardworking chairman.
Mr Afoko’s brother Gregory Afoko has been standing trial for close to one year, after police suspected him to be the main suspect of the acid bath on the late Adams Mahama, who died from severe bodily burns after the unfortunate incident.
The state claims it has enough evidence and has established Gregory Afoko’s complicity in the murder case which came as a big blow to the party’s Upper East Regional branch.
However speaking to Bola Ray on Starr Chat on Starr FM, Mr Paul Afoko stated that his brother is innocent of the crime he’s alleged to have committed, adding that the real truth in the case will be out soon.
“I’m happy that finally the Attorney General’s Department after keeping my brother in custody for close to one year has finally gotten their acts together and say they are now ready for the trial because they have evidence. There are things that will come out at the trial and I have evidence which I have handed to the police. Some members of my party should be prepared, they will enter the dock …I didn’t force them to write letters to me as the National Chairman six months before Adams died, making certain allegations. As I speak they know themselves…we are ready for the trial”.
