National Youth Organiser of the NDC Kofi Adams has questioned the integrity of Martin Amidu describing him as a dishonest person after he said in his latest article that he refused to provide evidence to some of his corruption articles because the questions were from partisan MPs.

Kofi Adams in reactions to the article from Martin Amidu said this call to question his honesty to the Ghanaian public because under oath he said some of his write-ups were based on perceptions.

"...what he has written now is portraying him as more of a dishonest person, so it gives others different views of him and a lot of people will be reviewing their judgement of him after reading this article, that you appeared before the Appointments Committee under oath ad you said you write based on perception.." 

According to Kofi Adams in a radio interview, these actions of Martin Amidu clearly shows his not as honest and brave as we were made to believe.

"knowing that you are not under oath and you have not been sworn in you choose to write anything you want."

He further alleged that Martin Amidu is been manipulated by someone who is not happy about his honest response before the Appointments Committee and forced him to come back with an article that will still keep the tag of corruption on President Mahama.

I have evidence for corruption articles on Mahama- Martin Amidu

Martin Amidu, the yet to be sworn in Special Prosecutor has revealed that his response to the vetting panel in Parliament on February 13, 2018, that some of his articles "were based on perceptions and opinions" was given to for a purpose.

Martin Amidu in his latest write up, suggests that the statement he made during his vetting "that his accusations of government officials as corrupt in his array of articles were based on perceptions and opinions" was said to protect his sources.

Portions of his latest article titled “Martin Amidu’s Parting thoughts as citizen vigilante” read:

"Before then I wish to say my response at my approval public hearing that some of my articles are based on my perceptions and opinions does not mean that they were not based on fact or reality. An in-depth acquaintance with the Philosophy and Methods of Research will show that perceptions and opinions need not be based on conjecture or non-facts or illusion. Those learned in research methods and intelligence know that my answers were intended for the protection of my sources and collection methods giving rise to the conclusions I arrived at in my several articles on corruption and abuse of power for private gain."

The Special Prosecutor nominee was severely condemned by the Minority in Parliament when he refused to provide evidence for tagging the erstwhile John Mahama-led government as corrupt in his series of articles.
