NPP’s bigwig and Former Education Minister who is now the Minister-designate for Energy, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh has retracted and apologized to Mahama for accusing him of busing people to the Independence Square in 2017.
The honourable minister was forced to eat the humble pie after lying that John Mahama bused a group of students to come and fake a fainting scene during the placements for students into senior high schools.
As confessed by him, he duly regrets making such distasteful comments since he had no evidence to prove them.
He apologized before the Vetting Committee on Friday, February 12, 2021.
He is reported to have said;
We opened the center at the independence square to address the needs of Ghanaians who want to go to school, but some evil people have decided to pay GHc 20 and GHc 50 to people to go there and stage fainting and collapse, yesterday some of the collapses were fake. I’m even wondering why they brought little kids to the centre
This confession followed after he was confronted by Mr. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa the NDC MP for North Tongu if he had evidence to support his claims.
