In the ongoing ambulance procurement trial, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has declared that it will soon provide evidence to bolster the third accused’s claims.

On May 23, Richard Jakpa, the third defendant in the ongoing trial of Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, claimed in court that the Attorney General had made several attempts to convince him to fabricate accusations against the Minority Leader and former Deputy Finance Minister.

Felix Ofosu Kwakye, an aide to NDC flagbearer John Dramani Mahama, called the evidence “ironclad” in an interview with Eyewitness News.

“This is ironclad; it is not just an allegation. We in the NDC are not in the business of throwing up empty clays. Just give us a few days into the early days of next week and we will put that evidence out, just as our chairman has said.

“Mind you, Jakpa was speaking on oath, which meant that if what he said proved to be false, he ran the risk of being imprisoned by the court for misleading the court and I do not think that somebody who is interested in his freedom like Jakpa, will make such allegation lightly.

“Again, we in the NDC are a serious organisation and we want the people of Ghana to take us seriously and so we are not just going to say we will put up evidence if we have none,” he stated.

“The nature of the evidence will become clear on the day that the NDC will announce it,” Felix Kwakye Ofosu said in his continuation.
