Kumasi: Frank Kwaku Appiah, popularly known as Appiah Stadium, a Kumasi-based political activist and staunch National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporter, has publicly confronted Albert Kwadwo Twum Boafo, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC), over an alleged refusal to answer calls from party members after assuming office.
According to Ghana Web, Appiah Stadium claims that Kwadwo Twum Boafo has allegedly blacklisted some phone numbers since taking on his role as CEO, making it impossible for callers using those numbers to reach him. The confrontation occurred when the two met at a recent programme, where Appiah Stadium directly approached the FIC CEO regarding the issue.
Appiah Stadium further alleged that since Kwadwo Twum Boafo's appointment, he has actively blocked certain numbers, thereby preventing calls from being connected. In response, the FIC CEO, visibly displeased with the public confrontation, cautioned Appiah Stadium against addressing such matters in a public setting, stating, "This is the third time you are doing this. Don't behave like that in public. Don't do it again."
In an attempt to address the matter, Kwadwo Twum Boafo sought to explain his side of the story and settle the issue with Appiah Stadium. However, Appiah Stadium appeared uninterested in the explanation and chose to walk away while the FIC CEO was still speaking.
