A planned meeting between the National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo and the police over the leaked audio failed to take place.
Accordin got sources, Mr Ofosu-Ampofo was yet to receive a formal invitation letter from the Police Criminal Investigations Department (CID) as of Thursday morning.
The CID had asked Mr Ofosu-Ampofo who has come under fire over comments he allegedly made in the secret recording to report at the headquarters at 10am on Thursday.
In interview with Peace FM's reporter, Yaw Obeng Manu who was at the CID headquarters, journalists from various media houses waited at vantage points with their cameras to capture Mr Ofosu-Ampofo’s arrival at the CID headquarters on Thursday morning, but it never saw the light of day.
Operation vehicles of the Formed Police Unit (FPU) including water cannons were seen positioned at vantage points with police personnel in full gears ready for any operational duties at the entrance of the CID headquarters.
However, three hours after the scheduled meeting, there was still no show amidst suggestions that Mr Ofosu-Ampofo has decided not to honour the police invitation.
Two members of the NDC legal team, Mr Victor K. Adawudu and Abraham Amaliba visited the CID headquarters to meet top police officers.
After the closed-door meeting, the lawyers told journalists who were waiting outside that, Mr Ofosu-Ampofo was yet to receive the invitation letter and that, they were there to verify from the police if they had indeed invited Mr Ofosu-Ampofo following information they had picked from various media houses.
The National Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) says Chairman Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo has not received any official invitation from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service.
According to the National Communications Officer of the NDC, Sammy Gyemfi, the unprofessionalism and bias nature of the Ghana Police must stop.
Speaking on Okay FM’s 'Ade Akye Abia' programme, he maintained that the police has not contacted the National Chairman and that they find it strange such information is circulating in the media.
“I am putting it on record that our Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo has not received any letter from the CID department," he said.
He therefore called on the media to be fair in their news reportage and stop being bias and playing double standards.

Only two years out of power and the NDC wants to come back by hook or crook. Hence their hasty decision to bring back JDM who was massively rejected by the masses. As if that hasty action isn't enough they are planning to unleash violence for power. God isn't a ***barred word***. Put Ofosu Ampofo in a jail. Let him serve at least 35 years for treason.
So how is this leaked tape so bad that NDC is running around like a headless chicken? I am also surprised at the rate at which the media is sensationalizing the negative aspects of this tape at the expense of security forces allegedly shooting unarmed citizens, wither thugs or not. I suggest we establish whether the government of Nana Addo- Danqua Akufo-Addo stooped so low to employ the dirty tactics stated in this leakage. Once that is cured, we can nip NDC in the bud.
THE MINISTERS OF INTERIOR AND NATIONAL SECURITY AS WELL AS THE POLICE, IN CHARGE OF INTERNAL SECURITY, MUST WAKE UP TO ENSURE PEACE AND SAFETY OF GHANAIANS. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL VIOLENT ATTACKS OF VIGILANTISM BY NPP AND NDC OPERATIVES AND THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL UNCOVERED KILLINGS AND KIDNAPPINGS IN GHANA IN THE RECENT TIMES CAUSING FEAR AND PANIC AMONG PEOPLE. THIS DOES NOT AUGUR WELL FOR THE STABILITY OF THE NATION. THE TAPE OF OFOSU AMPOFO GIVES A A CRITICAL CLUE TO WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE COUNTRY. THERE IS A STRONG POLITICAL OVERTONE IN THE CURRENT EVENTS. THE SECURITY FORCES MUST DEAL RUTHLESSLY WITH ANYBODY WHO WOULD LIKE TO FOMENT TROUBLE IN THE COUNTRY.JJ GOVERNMENT WAS NOT THE BEST BY ANY MEASUREMENT, YET IT RULED GHANA FOR 20 YEARS BECAUSE IT DID NOT COUNTENANCE ANY NONSENSEEE OF THE KIND WE FIND WITH OFOSU AMPOFO. THE OFOSU AMPOFO TAPE CHALLENGES AND GIVES AKUFO ADDO GOVERNMENT EVERY RIGHT TO BECOME TOUGH. IT IS TIME TO STOP HANDLING CRIMINALS AND TROUBLE MAKERS WITH KIDS GLOVES. IT IS GOOD FOR GHANA TO BE PRAISED AS A STAR OF DEMOCRACY IN AFRICA BUT IF THE FREEDOM AND LIBERTY ACHIEVED IS NOT TREASURED AND PROTECTED WE SHALL LAUGH ON THE WRONG SIDE OF OUR MOUGH. POLICE, SOLDIERS AND ALL THE SECURITY FORCES ARE PAID TO KEEP THE STATE SAFE AND WE SHOULD CHALLENGE AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO SUBDUE AND CONTAIN ANY TROUBLE MAKER AND CRIMINAL. THE HONEYMOON FOR AKUFFO ADDO IS OVER. TOO MUCH OF EVERYTHING IS BAD AND TOO MUCH OF TALK TALK, AND NICE NICE IS NOT GOOD. OFOSU AMPOFO, SAMMY GYAMFI,AKAMBA, NII LAMPTEY VANDERPUYE, SAM GEORGE OR ANY OTHER WHO LACK SIMPLE UNDERSTANDING AND CIVILITY, AND CANNOT APPRECIATE DIALOGICAL PROCESS TO ADDRESS ISSUES MUST BE DEALT WITH ACCORDINGLY.SUCH PEOPLE DO NOT RELY ON THEIR CONSCIENCE TO DO THINGS RIGHT, EXCEPT WHEN COMPELLED TO DO SO. THE POLICE AND THE SECURITY FORCES MUST DEAL WITH SUCH PEOPLE SQUARELY WITHIN THE PERIMETERS OF THE LAW, DISREGARDING ANY OF THEIR PRETENCE. SOME IN THE POLICE MUST ALSO STOP THE UNPROFESSIONAL ATTITUDE BY BETRAYING THEIR OWN INSTITUTIONS TO CONNIVE WITH LAWBREAKERS. THE POLICE ADMINISTRATION AND THE SECURITY FORCES MUST ENSURE TO INSTILL DISCIPLINE WITHIN THEIR RANKS. OFOSU AMPOFO MUST BE MADE TO DISCLOSE THE POLICE WOMAN MENTION IN HIS TAPE. VIGILANTIES MUST BE DISBAND AND THE SECURITY FORCES MUST BE TASKED TO ENSURE THE BAN. ANY FAILURE OF AKUFFO ADDO IS A CONDEMNATION OF GHANA TO HELL. AKUFFO ADDO MUST BE BOLD AND STRONG BECAUSE HE IS ORDAINED BY GOD TO SUCCEED. THE BATTLE IS THE LORD.
The security agencies must "CRUSH" Ofusu Ampofo,Chief Azorka and his BOYS Down. Before 2020 release the Military and the national security guys and let them Destroy the likes of Asiedu nketia.They have EVIL and Diabolic Mind.Kidnapping innocent people is your policy.So, who is behind the Late J.B Danquah's death. This same NDC guys were in POWER.I can conclude with this NDC TAPE.Where are the INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMATS.
if he fails to go they should for a bench warrant to arrest that ediot, ndc behave like they are untouchable the state must use it powers to crack them
From now onwards we are not going to take NDC serious.
