According to GhanaWeb, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, who serves as the Director of Communications for the Bawumia Campaign Team, has raised concerns about the political affiliations of Professor Ransford Gyampo, the Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Shippers Authority.
Aboagye noted that Professor Gyampo had a closer relationship with the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration than many prominent members of the party.
He described Gyampo’s recent association with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) as unexpected, given his past connections.
During an interview on Asempa FM on March 10, 2025, Aboagye alleged that Professor Gyampo had direct lines of communication with both former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and his Vice, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
According to him, Gyampo frequently interacted with them via text messages.
He stated: “He shouldn’t come and explain anything. Who had more access to the NPP government than Professor Gyampo? Someone who could WhatsApp President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Bawumia directly, that was Professor Gyampo. He used to text them frequently. Ask him if he doesn’t have their numbers.”
He expressed disbelief at Gyampo’s choice to accept a role in President John Dramani Mahama’s administration, considering his prior closeness to the NPP leadership.
Aboagye questioned the motives behind Gyampo’s political behavior, suggesting that his actions may have been driven by personal interests.
He also challenged the rationale behind Gyampo’s apparent departure from being an NPP sympathizer to taking up a position under an NDC-led government.
