Host of Joy FM’s Super Morning Show, Kojo
Oppong-Nkrumah has reacted to claims that he was attacked by the
presidential candidate of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) after
the IEA Presidential debate last Wednesday.
Nana Addo Dankwa
Akufo-Addo was widely condemned - especially by the governing National
Democratic Congress (NDC) - for supposedly attacking Kojo who was one of
the moderators of the debate on the night, since he refused to grant
Nana a request for rebuttal.
Clearing the air on the matter, however, Kojo Oppong-Nkrumah explained to Joy News what actually transpired that night.
“You
know usually, at the end of every debate the candidates will walk up to
where I'm seated, shake hands with you and everybody will tell you
something different.
“I recall that at the end of Wednesday’s
debate, when the NPP candidate came up he drew my attention to the fact
that he had wanted…to do a rebuttal about one of the inaccuracies that
one of the candidates had mentioned.”
Kojo said he apologized to
Nana Addo for not affording him that opportunity to rebut and promised
to forward his grievances to the IEA Presidential debate committee.
“And we left it at that,” Kojo added.
