The family of the late Ahmed Hussein-Suale has warned lawmaker, Kennedy Agyapong to desist from spreading falsehood claims that their son was in his ‘good books’ and that he [Kennedy] also assisted Ahmed to pay his school fees.

“We want to clarify this. Kennedy never met Ahmed and he never paid his school fees,” a spokesperson for the family, Dr. Mustapha Iddrisu has said in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.
 
According to him, the family has always had the wherewithal to fund the education of its members and Hussein-Suale was not an exception.

“This assertion is nothing but the desperation of an overly excited person over the demise of our son and the exploitation of the ‘perpetual silence of the dead’. Suale is one of many graduates in the family and all his siblings are sponsored from within the family resources,” he noted. 

Ahmed who is a member of a private investigative group, Tiger Eye P.I was killed by some unknown assailants who shot him three times.

This comes after the Assin Central MP had shown his picture to the public calling on them to beat him up due to his involvement in Anas Aremeyaw Anas’ infamous Number 12 exposé.

After Ahmed was killed, the outspoken Kennedy Agyapong offered to give GH¢100,000 from his personal coffers to anyone who provides useful information on the persons who shot and killed the key associate of renowned investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas last month.

But Ahmed’s family has decried the NPP guru's GH¢100,000 bounty on the killers as diversionary.

Dr. Iddrisu explained that at no point did their deceased family member feel a sense of immense insecurity until “Kennedy Agyapong splashed his photographs in the media with his accompanying incitement of violence against him.”

“What kind of hypocrisy is that?” he quizzed. 

"We are appealing to Mr. Agyapong to allow the innocent soul of our son, father and brother to rest in eternal peace,” the spokesperson told host Kwesi Aboagye.
