Victor Smith, the National Democratic Congress’ parliamentary candidate for Abuakwa North, has said the propaganda campaign waged against him that he was behind the death of the then-MP for the constitutency, Joseph Boakye Danquah-Adu, will not work.
According to him, the incumbent Member of Parliament (MP), Gifty Twum Ampofo, has been telling constituents that he had a hand in the death of the late MP, who was gruesomely murdered at his Shiashie residence in Accra some months ago.
Speaking in an interview with Chief Jerry Forson, host of Ghana Yensom, on Accra100.5FM in connection with his campaign for the 7 December polls, Ghana’s former ambassador to the United Kingdom said: “There are false stories being circulated about me by the Member of Parliament. She is going about telling people that I had a hand in the death of JB Danquah.
“She wants to use JB’s death for political mileage, to the extent that she went to pour libation on JB’s tomb to help her win the elections. What kind of politics is that? She should learn how to do proper politics.”
When asked whether he had reported the allegation to the police, Mr Smith said: “I don’t have time to go to court on the matter now because we have a few days to the elections. If she thinks I have a hand in the death of JB Danquah, she should go to the police. I don’t want to be detracted from what I am doing, I will take her on later.”

For those who who do not know, Victor is NOT an all-die-be-die kind of politician who would do just anything to win an election. After all, he has lost before and the world did not come to an end for him... He rather got a juicy portfolio. What we are doing in Abuakwa is simply for the love of the people and to close the gap for JM, period!
Whoever has a hand in JB's death will know no peace.
ONLY GOD KNOWS WHO IS BEHIND THE KILLING OF JB.AND THEIR REWARDS ARE AWAITING THEM
akutia nim ne wura...... i wonder why the delay of JB's case knowing surely that the guy commited that crime but yet u are delaying the case and finding all ways and means to make it a ***barred word*** case but it wont work

Massa we all know that you have a hand in the killing if JB. We are not kids. You will only survive if NDC should win the election. (Not going to happen anyway)
