I Will Swim In the Gutters With You- Namoale Tells Nana Fredua
The next pairing of Nii Amasah Namoale and Nana
Fredua on any political show is likely produce a
nauseating experience, the former has threatened.

Former MP for La Dade-Kotopon says he is ready to
descend into the gutters with Nana Fredua if he
dare heckles him again.

The threat to play in the “gutters” with Nana
Fredua, comes after the former MP found it hard to
contain the series of interjections he receieved
from him on ATV's political show dubbed Asem Yi Di
Ka.  

In an attempt to stop Hon. Nii Amasah Namoale from
describing Senior Minister-designate, Hon. Osafo
Marfo as an “arrogant man”, Nana Fredua found
an enemy in the former MP for La Dade-Kotopon.

Hon. Nii Amasah Namoale brusquely stated that it
was wrong for Hon. Osafo Marfo to embarrass Hon.
Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa when he appeared before
the Vetting Committee last Friday.

During the proceedings, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa
made reference to what Mr. Osafo Maafo described
as “frivolous propaganda” allegations that he
(Osafo) supervised two major financial scandals.

He questioned Mr. Osafo Maafo's role in the CNT/CI
loan and MacMillan debacle under the erstwhile
Kufour regime.

In a quick riposte to the North Tongu MP, Mr.
Osafo Maafo silenced the MP suggesting that he was
too young to understand the details of the two
issues at the time.

"I think you were too young at the time to
understand the issue," he stated.

He was later made to retract his comment to Mr.
Okudzeto Ablakwa, which was considered
“unparliamentarily”, and apologized to him.

Despite his apology, Hon. Nii Amasah Namoale,
still claims Mr. Osafo Marfo is arrogant.  

“If you are arrogant, in whatever you do it
would come out. If someone asks you a question, in
humility you should answer it. If you don’t know
the answer, you have to make that fellow aware.

But if they ask you question about MacMillan and
you answer the fellow with phrases like didn’t
you listen to my press conference? What do you
mean? Then it shows you are arrogant”, Hon.
Namoale said.  

The explanation didn’t sit well with Nana Fredua
who interjected to inform Hon. Namoale not to use
the “arrogant” tag on Mr. Osafo Marfo.  He
further asked Hon. Namoale not to misrepresent
Osafo Marfo on the show by twisting his words.

The interjection fired Hon. Namoale to respond by
stating that “one day I descend into the gutters
with Nana Fredua.  If you have inferiority
complex or superiority complex, I won’t allow
you to exhibit it on me”.
