Private legal practitioner, Maurice Ampaw has questioned the ruling New Patriotic Party’s [NPP] reason for keeping its founding member, Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe in the party.
According to him, Mr. Nyaho-Tamakloe does not deserve to be a member of the ‘Elephant’ fraternity after describing him as an “Unprincipled” elder.
“NPP must sack that Nyaho-Tamakloe from the party. What is happening in the NPP? If they could have punished Paul Afoko and Kwabena Agyapong, why are they keeping Nyaho-Tamakloe in the party? They should sack him with immediate effect,” he said.
The lawyer was responding to Nyaho-Tamakloe’s claims that “Ibrahim Mahama's enemies will fail.”
Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe has accused government of witch hunting Ibrahim Mahama after the Economic and Organised Crimes Office (EOCO) invited the latter for questioning on Tuesday.
Mr. Mahama who is a brother to former president John Mahama was invited by EOCO for questioning over some dud cheques he issued to the Customs division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) at the Tema Ports to clear some heavy duty equipment he imported into the country.
It can be recalled that the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyepong alleged on Oman FM in March this year that Mahama defrauded the state some GHS14million.
He thus promised to commit suicide if the government did not incarcerate Ibrahim Mahama.
But Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe stated that Mr. Ibrahim Mahama who happens to be his nephew did not defraud the state to acquire his riches.
Speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show dubbed ‘Ghana Montie’, Lawyer Maurice Ampaw was marveled at Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe assertion.
“I thought he [Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe] is highly-principled? What is he talking about? It’s a shame for him to even call himself a party member. He is a disgrace to the party. Nyaho-Tamakloe should be fired and join the NDC,” he stated.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?
If l were Nyaho. Iwill tell his nephew to go and pay his debt so that people will be put to shame since his nephew is rich bussinessman. This is ghanas money.
You and Nyaho, who has integrity. You sat on TV3 and deceived everybody you were non aligned during the 2012 electoral dispute, Shortly after that, your were running round with the results defending NPP position. At least Nyaho is straightforward in warning his own people. Is that why you have a problem with him?
Nyaho Tamakloe has been exposed, so that is why he tried to destroy Nana Addo and prevent him from becoming president. It was all because his nephew Ibrahim had committed some crimes and he feared that an NPP government will deal with him. Nhaho Tamakloe is disgrace to his family.
Lawyer Ampaw you are 100% right Dr. Tamakloe has to resign himself to avoid shame to himself as a elder citizen and called himself a History to a one time NPP member. If he dares a lot of party members I know are ready to face him with the words he deserve then resign himself in Shame.
Maurice, I agree with you. This Nyaho Tamakloe is always wrong in anything he says. How can you say Mahama is being witch hunted? This is a man who is alleged to have defrauded the nation. If the investigations find him guilty, he should be jailed. The fact that he is the brother of the former President does not give him the licence to defraud the nation. Nyaho should be realistic in what he says except that he agrees with fraud.
How dumbb can you be. Even if Ibrahim is wrong for what he did, does his uncle not have the right to stand by him? I just can't understand how ediot some people are. Even armed robberss sometimes have their parents showing solidarity with them, that doesn't mean they may not be guilty. Most importantly in this case no one has been charged for wrongdoing so why are people in a hurry to nailed nyaho for standing behind his nephew. In law one is innocent until proven guilty. I just hate people who are not objective in their thinking. It's pathetic.
I agree with Lawyer Ampaw 100%. Nyaho Tamakloe must be fired from NPP. He is a snitch!
What are some people talking about!!! That Nyaho Tamakloe is Ibrahim's relative so he is encouraging him to perpetrate this crime on the state. Dud cheques are crime against the state and are punishable by the law. Maybe some of you don't understand what a dud check is. Pathetic!!!
Is EOCO NPP or a government of Ghana institution? Is this man a lawyer at all? He doesn't seem to be smart. Can't you stand behind your relative in time of problem?
