NCCE goes after Ofosu-Ampofo over leaked audio, condemns content

The National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) has condemned the content of leaked audio purported to be the voice of the chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

In a statement signed by NCCE Deputy Chairman, Samuel Asare Akuamoah, the Commission said the content of the audio has the potency of undermining decades of efforts in building peace in the country.

NDC Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo has received intense backlash the past week over leaked audio puported to be his voice, in which he was heard inciting his party supporters against some personalities, including the chairman of the Peace Council.

The NDC has denied the content of the audio, claiming it has been doctored to score political goals.

But ex-president John Mahama apparently justified portions of it over the weekend when he said Mr Ofosu-Ampofo only urged his party supporters to criticise Most Reverend Professor Emmanuel Kwaku Asante.
