His lawyer Abraham Amaliba says they are yet to receive an invitation from any of the security agencies investigating the matter.
“Mr. Tuubo has not been invited by the BNI with relation to any alleged coup plot. He has not indicated to us that the BNI have reached him on any matter. Mr. Tuubo as at yesterday mentioned that that platform has some people on it as well as himself. However, there hasn’t been any discussion on coup on the platform according to him,†Amaliba told Francis Abban on the Morning Starr Wednesday.
Two other top police officers ACP Dr. Benjamin Agordzor, and COP Kofi Boakye have both been invited by the BNI.
