I’ve never been to Germany – Amidu rubbishes Ken Agyapong claims

Ghana’s former Special Prosecutor, Martin Amidu has rubbished claims by Assin Central Member of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong that there are medical records of him(Amidu) from Germany.

The lawmaker speaking on the ‘Seat Show’ on Net 2 TV on Wednesday night, alleged that Martin Amidu has a medical problem for which reason he should not have been appointed.

According to Mr Agyapong, the MP for Bawku Mahama Ayariga wanted to raise the issue of Mr Amidu’s medical records during his vetting process but John Dramani Mahama, the former President advised Ayariga to refrain from that.

“Martin Amidu thinks he’s a ‘tin god’. He should bring his medical records from Germany, I dare him. Bring your medical records from Germany to determine if you’re normal,” he said.

But Mr Amidu in a statement denied having any medical records in Germany adding that he’s never visited that country in his entire life.

“I have never had any reason or occasion to visit Germany throughout my life let alone to visit any medical facility on health grounds. The records of my travels which are available to the lying Kennedy Agyapong’s Government can be checked and the German Embassy contacted whether I have throughout my life made an application for a visa or visited Germany.

“I was, therefore, shocked when my attention was called by a reporter from Citi FM to one of the usual false allegations typical of the unstable Kennedy Agyapong published on Ghana Web today 19^th November 2020. The irredeemable liar par excellence against anybody Ghanaian of integrity who dares to perform his official function to the dissatisfaction of his Government was reported to have spoken on his “Seat Show” on his Net 2 TV on Wednesday night daring me to bring my medical records from  Germany to determine whether I am normal. The unrepentant liar attributed to my son, Mahama Ayariga, whom I was painfully compelled to investigate in the cause of duty in my former position as the Special Prosecutor the falsehood that: “Ayariga was going to take him on to produce his medical records and explain why he went to Germany [but] Mahama told him to stop. ‘Don’t raise this question at the appointments committee’.”
