Ghana’s Majority Leader in parliament, Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu says the one-man campaign being waged by Assin Central Member of Parliament in reaction to the expose by ace investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas hasn’t been sanctioned by the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to him, the party and government support Anas’ resolve to expose corrupt people, especially public and civil servants in the country.

The MP has vowed to strip the investigative journalist naked for being a “blackmailer and an extortionist”.
