Office of the Member of Parliament for Ablekuma West, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful has refuted allegations making the rounds in the media that she called Ghanaians witches for complaining about the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) government.
“I have never called anyone a witch for complaining, I merely touted the NPP’s achievement as remarkable and tangible and asserted that only blind propagandists would feign ignorance of these visible achievements, which were obvious and touched every home in Ghana”.
In a statement the MP noted that she urged the youth to boldly respond to propagandists with the truth and to itemise the strides made by government in the past two and half years, just as the vice president Dr. Bawumia recently did during the NABCO anniversary celebrations.
“I never instructed the youth to shut complaints down as the news article purportedly suggested”, she lamented.
We take serious exception to this false story which has received wide circulation, readership and subsequent publications from other media houses and demand retraction and apology.
The office also urges the public to disregard these false media reports and treat them with the contempt they deserve. Mrs. Owusu-Ekuful respects the right of all Ghanaians to have their own opinions about any issue though she may not agree with it. She will continuously proclaim the envious achievements of the NPP Government to all and not relent in defusing the false reportage and vile propaganda put out by others, the statement said.
