I told them to go to hell – Prof. Gyampo on BBC exposé

He recounted his interaction with the international media house, insisting that he had done nothing wrong.

“When the matter broke, and they were about to air it, they contacted me. I showed them evidence that I was ignorant; I didn’t know anything about what they claimed I had done. But the more I explained, the more it became clear they just wanted to go ahead with their story,” he recounted on 3FM, monitored by MyNewsGH.

Seeing no point in further engagement, Gyampo said he made his stance clear. “I realized they had an agenda, so I blasted them and told them to go to hell and do it!”

The academic further detailed how the entire controversy was a setup that took months to execute.

“It was not something that happened in a day—it was a plot that took place over three months.

“I survived all those months until I let my guard down, extending magnanimity to someone who twisted things. Whatever you heard or watched was voice-over narration—somebody was talking about something I had no knowledge of.”

He insisted that key parts of the conversation were deliberately omitted to misrepresent him.

“The things I was supposed to have said were all quoted out of context. It was not a monologue; it was a conversation. Why bring only one side and exclude the other person’s words?”

Gyampo also addressed how his wife handled the situation, emphasizing that there was never any tension at home.

“It was not challenging because she knew everything. I show everything to her. We never quarrelled about it,” he said.
