According to an email sent to Sulemana Braimah, the Executive Director of the Media Foundation for West Africa (MFWA) from the British Broadcasting Corporation, contrary to popular belief, not only did the Network not collaborate with Anas on his latest expose, they did not sponsor the investigation as being alleged by some section of Ghanaians lead by Abdul Malik Kweku Baako, the Editor-In-Chief of the New Crusading Guide.

Sulemana Braimah wrote to BBC seeking clarification as to if they collaborated in the investigation and if indeed they sponsored the exposé and the Network wrote back stating that they did not sanction the investigation and they did not sponsor the investigation.

According to BBC, they did a documentary “Betraying the Game” broadcast after Number 12 was first put into the public domain and it was an independent and impartial work and a report about Anas’ investigations.

Before the premiere of Anas Aremeyaw Anas and the Tiger Eye’s latest exposé nicknamed Number 12, the Editor-In-Chief of the New Crusading Guide, Abdul-Malik Kwaku Baako stated that the investigative project which was centered on corruption in Football activities was a joint project between the Tiger Eye PI and the British Broadcasting Corporation.

Before the premiere of the exposé, there were calls on some of the people captured in the video to seek a court injunction and stop the premiering of the video.

In a panel discussion Mr. Kweku Baako said:

“Indeed I can tell you that the BBC is disappointed that this happened. I was disappointed, Anas disappointed because none of us knew that there was going to be a response, I got to know after the event had taken place.” – This was in reaction to the call for the arrest of Mr. Nyantakyi by the president
