One of the videos sought to suggest President Akufo-Addo was influenced with an amount of US$40,000 concealed in a brown envelope. In the video, Alhaji Abass Awolu, Director of the Department of Urban Roads, according to the narration, sent a delegation to the President’s Nima residence to appeal on his behalf for job security. This, Baako explained, was filmed by one Salis Yakubu Atsuluho, whom he, Baako, introduced to Anas Aremeyaw Anas of New Crusading Guide fame. “Anas went to show [President Akufo-Addo] excerpts of Number 12,” Baako explained, which helped clarify matters.
