A Deputy Chief of Staff, Francis Asenso-Boakye, has denied claims that he owes a New Patriotic Party youth group.
The group, Elephant Youth Association (OSONO), claimed the deputy Chief of Staff was holding on to monies meant for them from the presidency.
But Mr. Asenso-Boakye in a statement urged the public to disregard the claims.
“I wish to state categorically that I do not owe any person or group of persons money. Neither has the President given me any money due a group of persons which I have withheld as alleged.”
“It’s a well-orchestrated and vile attempt to cause disaffection and besmirch my reputation. I remain focused in performing my duties to His Excellency, the President and Government.”

Deputy Chief of Staff Francis Asenso-Boakye writes:
This morning, a group of young men calling themselves Elephant Youth Association (OSONO) besieged my official residence ostensibly to demand for money owed them. I wish to state categorically that I do not owe any person or group of persons money. Neither has the President given me any money due a group of persons which I have withheld as alleged.
I urge the general public to disregard any news circulating on social media and other media portals that I owe the so-called OSONO which is not an identifiable group within the NPP. It’s a well-orchestrated and vile attempt to cause disaffection and besmirch my reputation. I remain focused in performing my duties to His Excellency, the President and Government.
I have since lodged a formal complaint with the police.
Thank you
