The Deputy Communication Director for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr. Ernest Owusu-Bempah has vehemently denied ever calling UTV’s entertainment late night show, United Showbiz program useless.
The Head of Corporate Communications for the Ghana National Gas Company (GNGC) has been accused of inciting some alleged NPP thugs to attack UTV after he allegedly said the United Showbiz program was useless and need to be stopped.
However, speaking in a recent interview with Sefa Kayi on Peace FM, Mr. Ernest Owusu-Bempah boldly claimed he has never made such remarks anywhere.
“I heard it has been circulated in the media that I Owusu-Bempah has said one of yours shows on UTV is a useless show, I have never said that. I have never made a statement like that,” he denied.
However, the Deputy Communication Director for NPP has already been exposed since another video captured him making such outrageous statement on Wontumi TV in Kumasi days before the attack in UTV.
