Capt. Koda is a convict – Interior Ministry insists

The Ministry of Interior is insisting head of NPP flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo’s security Captain (rtd) Edmund Koda is a convict.

Despite a rebuttal from Captain Koda’s lawyer, Nana Asante Bediatuo that Edmund Koda was acquitted and discharged by a commission of enquiry, deputy Interior minister maintains this is not true.

Speaking on Joy FM/MultiTv’s news analysis program Newsfile, Mr. Agalga said, “his argument that Captain Koda was never convicted is a palpable falsehood. He [Koda] was convicted and that is why he continued to serve that jail term and ended up breaking jail.”

Mr. Agalga said the Francoise Committee Report does not support Bediatuo’s argument.

Nana Akufo-Addo’s head of security was arrested last week for his involvement in contracting three South Africn nationals to train close officials of the NPP presidential candidate.

Last Monday, March 28, the Interior ministry released a statement justifying the arrest of Captain Koda.
