BNI has done well-Kwesi Pratt Jnr.
Audrey Micah



The managing editor of the Insight newspaper, Mr. Kwesi Pratt Jr., who is also a leading member of the Committee for Joint Action (CJA), has stated that the Bureau for National Investigations (BNI) did what was right by preventing the former Minister of Information, Asamoah Boateng and his family from traveling to United States.

According to him, there is nothing wrong with it as the BNI was doing their work.



He said, if they had not prevented him from traveling, the government would have had to use lots of money and resources searching for him around the world just to have him answer some questions.



Mr. Kwesi Pratt Jr. disclosed on Peace FM that the BNI’s approach to the former minister was modest and said it is the Minister and his wife who complicated things to make it look like a crime.


He added that government has every right to seize the former minister’s passport and that if his lawyers are saying it illegal then they are wrong.

Meanwhile the mother of the former Information Minister, Ekua Awotwe, aged 81, gave up the ghost in the Mfantseman Constituency of the Central Region yesterday morning and reports say youth of the constituency are incensed over the development.


This happened a day after agents from the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) ambushed Mr. Asamoah-Boateng, aka Asabee, together with his wife and kids aged four and two, at the Kotoka International Airport, engaged them in a scuffle and eventually succeeded in preventing the former minister and his family from boarding a British Airways flight to London.
