Koku Anyidoho , former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has advised President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo not to comment on the leaked tape that captures a plot to oust the Inspector General of Police Dr George Akuffo Dampare.
The former NDC deputy secretary believes there is absolutely no need for the President to add his voice to the current debate on the leaked tape.

The former Presidential spokesperson under the Mills administration said in a tweet that:
” The Police Intelligence & Professional Standards Bureau is more than capable of investigating any unprofessional conduct vis the leaked IGP tape. Let’s allow Institutions to work and stop forcing the President to wade into matters ‘below’ his table.”

“From a Communications/PR perspective, and having worked as Head of Communications/Presidential Spokesperson, I would not advise President Akufo-Addo to comment on the tape doing the rounds vis the IGP. There is absolutely no need for the President to comment.”
Some observers have called on the President to comment on the tape.

For instance, a Professor at the University of Ghana Ransford Gyampo said although the Minister for the Interior spoke on the matter and assured that there was no plan to remove the IGP, the presidency must also issue a statement on the issue.
He explained on the Key Points on TV3 Saturday, July 15, that it is not the Minister who appointed the IGP, but rather the president hence the presidency must speak on this issue.
“I expect the Presidency to issue a statement on this matter,” he said.
Koku Anyidoho stressed, “A formalized statement should be issued to assure the IGP that he will continue to remain in office so long as he discharges and takes his duties without fear or favor.”
