“These were based on suspicions and not enough to consider the publication as 100% accurate. Hon. Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, former Education Minister was mentioned which was regrettable and as such it’s proper we offer an unqualified apology. We would also like to offer an apology to the Ministry of Education since the institution was mentioned in the publication and never meant to cause harm to its reputation,” parts of the letter sighted by Metrotvonline read.

The two however insisted that their modus operandi was not politically motivated in any way but a means to compel their management to pay their outstanding remuneration. They further called on the Minister to intervene in their salary payment matter by speaking on their behalf to their management.
