Otiko’s Sex-For-EC Job Probe Call ‘Useless’ – Xavier

A call for a probe into a sex-for-job allegation made by Assin Central MP, Kennedy Agyapong, against Mrs Charlotte Osei, Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, is a “useless” advocacy, human rights lawyer Francis Xavier Sosu has said.

According to Mr Sosu, the allegation was “bogus”, “has no basis,” and the lawmaker “has no proof” of it.

“What is there to be investigated? It’s a very useless call,” Mr Sosu told Prince Minkah on Class91.3FM’s Executive Breakfast Show (EBS) on Tuesday July 19.

Mr Agyapong has been heavily criticised for the allegation but that notwithstanding, the opposition New Patriotic Party’s Women’s Organiser, Otiko Afisa Djaba, recently told journalists that there was the need for the Bureau of National Investigations and parliament to go into the allegation, since Mrs Osei could be compromised by the president, as far as the forthcoming general elections are concerned, if, indeed, there had been any sexual relationship between her and Mr Mahama in the past as alleged.

Ms Djaba’s call has been sharply criticised as “pathetic” by the second vice chairman of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Mrs Susan Adu Amankwah.
