The Member of Parliament for Builsa South says the clearing of former President John Dramani Mahama of any wrongdoing, including bribery from the Airbus scandal, is not surprising.
Dr. Clement Apaak, who worked as a presidential staffer under former President Mahama, said the National Democratic Congress (NDC), which the former president represents as a presidential candidate, knew the entire process was an orchestration to tarnish his image.
Before the Office of Special Prosecutor initiated a probe into the scandal, the USA and UK courts had cleared Mr. Mahama of any wrongdoing, he said.
He noted that even in the face of strong evidence to clear Mr. Mahama, President Akufo-Addo ordered an investigation to be conducted with the sole aim of having the OSP sustain the lie against Mahama that he was corrupt and had accepted a bribe in the Airbus scandal.
In a statement, Dr. Apaak maintained that Mr. Mahama has never been corrupt, is not corrupt, and would never be corrupt despite the maligning by his political opponents.
He has therefore asked President Akufo-Addo, whom he tagged as ‘Mother Serpent of corruption’, and his corrupt appointees to prepare themselves for the same investigations involving all the numerous cases of corruption and thievery recorded under this NPP government.
He has also asked Ghanaians not to cry witch-hunting when the tables turn and the corrupt officials of the NPP government are being investigated for their involvement in these scandals.

We never had a doubt that John Dramani Mahama did no wrong in the Airbus matter. Indeed, the investigations conducted in the USA and the UK into the saga never faulted John Dramani Mahama. Yet Akufo-Addo elected to cause him to be investigated by the OSP to sustain the lie that John Dramani Mahama is corrupt. Well, it is now clear that John Dramani Mahama is not corrupt, was never corrupt, and would never be corrupt.
The Mother Serpent of Corruption and his appointees should be in readiness to subject themselves to investigations for all the allegations of corruption levelled against them. Let no one cry of political witch-hunting when the day comes. The day of accountability will surely come.
