Mallam Issa the short lived Minister for Youth and Sports has in an exclusive interview with the Daily Guide commented on the Report recommending that he should be held personally responsible for the loss of the $46,000, says the Daily Guide.

He described the report as unfair, prejudicial and rather unfortunate and that the whole report has left out most of the facts on his side which are favourable to him and "a lot of what they have come out with and their conclusions are merely based on popular and unfortunate suspicions."

This was Mallam Issa's first interview in reaction to the published reports over the matter, which led to his appointment being revoked by the President.

According to him throughout the investigations, Detective Chief Inspector Hope Nyadi, one of the officers co-opted to assist with the investigations appeared very comfortable with the GFA General Secretary, Mr Worlanyo Agrah and the protocol officer, Mr Alex Asante Sakyi. He said these two officers were given 'red carpet treatment' while he was treated like 'someone just picked off the streets' making him suspicious about what the outcome of the investigations was going to be.

According to Mallam, sections of the report seem tailored to be unfair to him and in his estimation the Police did not do a thorough job.

Mallam Issa asserted that Agrah was emphatic in his advice that the money would be safe in the green suitcase.

He was also displeased with the manner the police came for his wife in his absence. He insists that he personally told the police he had travelled with a copy of the auditor's report and had also told them about the other copy in his home.
