Mr. George Isaac Amoo has threatened legal action against Joy FM for spreading what he says is ‘malicious information’ about him.

The former National Coordinator of the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO), who has been reassigned to a disaster desk at the Interior Ministry after adverse findings have been made about him by an investigative committee regarding the misappropriation of state funds have denied the findings of the committee.

Joy News’ reportage on the incidence was based on a copy of the committee’s report which the station managed to get hold of.

Mr. Amoo who called into Joy FM’s current affairs programme, ‘News File’ on Saturday September 29, 2007 says he will sue all other media houses that have carried the report.

He has however denied any wrong doing, claiming that the ¢7 billion purchases that were made went through the tender board and he insisted that all the food items that were bought, have been appropriately distributed to the three northern regions that were affected by the floods.

Mr. Amoo said he was not sure why the committee that investigated him, failed to indicate that he made those submissions to them during the investigations, adding that “ I leave that to God and their conscience.”
