The National Democratic Congress (NDC) says it will provide evidence to support the claims of the third accused, Richard Jakpa against the Attorney General (AG) in the ongoing ambulance trial.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme on Friday, Felix Ofosu Kwakye, an aide to NDC flagbearer, John Mahama said the evidence will be made available by next week Tuesday.
Mr. Jakpa, a businessman standing trial with former Deputy Finance Minister, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, on Thursday alleged in court that the AG has called him at odd hours to persuade him to implicate the Minority Leader.
Though the AG has categorically dismissed the claims and has urged Ghanaians to disregard them, the NDC contends that Mr Jakpa could not have lied under oath.
Mr Kwakye has said the evidence will expose schemes by the Attorney General, Godfred Yeboah Dame to jail Ato Forson.
“This is ironclad; it is not just an allegation. We in the NDC are not in the business of throwing up empty threats. By next week Tuesday, we will put that evidence out. Just as our Chairman has said, there will be a press conference and we are not just going to say we will put up evidence if we have none,” he stated.
