A security analyst, Col Festus Aboagye (rtd), has described NPP's Rev 's allegations as lacking substance and a ploy to sway Ghanaians.

He labelled the sequence of events that have characterised the allegations as a failed "April Fool's" attempt.

Col Aboagye explained that it is cunning to set such an agenda without a correct factual basis and evidence.

Speaking on TV3's Key Points show on April 12, 2025, he said; "And I'm saying that if this is the caliber of people who govern Ghana, then we are doomed because you don't eat 'abenkwan' [palm nut soup] and go to bed and dream and wake up and tell Ghanaians that you have intelligence that some drugs have been trafficked into the country or money has been laundered.
