Who authorised that the body should be moved to that end? We heard it was in the custody of 37 Hospital, why did he end up in a private hospital?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs there something in the autopsy report they don\u2019t want us to know? Why are they hiding it? If the public wants it, why not make it available? It should be available for public record,\u201d he quizzed.<\/p>\n<p>He lamented that the soul of the late president is not sleeping peacefully due to the inability of those involved to release the details surrounding his death to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Touching on some comments purportedly made by President Akufo-Addo during a meeting between him and the family of the former president at the Jubilee House in Accra, that his government had neglected Ekumfi due to the residents\u2019 decision to vote Francis Ato Cudjoe out of Parliament in the 2020 elections, the minister said the President was misinterpreted, insisting that the Ekumfi Constituency had never been neglected by the government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have twisted what the President said for their political agenda. The President has done very well for the people of Ekumfi,\u201d the minister said.<\/p>\n<p>The President, he added, only meant that because his appointee was voted out of power, contact was lost in a way, and now that they have come to him, they would find a way around it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I think the twist was from here. This is because his appointee at the time was the one he was constantly in communication with concerning the needs of the people, but because he was no more a Member of Parliament, things changed,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BY Nii Adjei Mensahfio<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stephen Asamoah Boateng \u00a0 THE MINISTER for Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Stephen Asamoah Boateng, popularly known as Asabee, has called for a probe into the circumstances surrounding the untimely demise of former President John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills.
