Reports have indicated that the V8 Land Cruiser with vehicle registration number GR 1779 – 24 belongs to Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, the member of parliament for the Elembele constituency.
This information was disclosed by the uncle of Lawrence Sey, the young man who tragically died in the accident involving Kofi Kinaata.
The uncle recounted that the driver of the vehicle was the MP’s chaffeur and that the car involved in the incident also belonged to the politician.
Earlier, Kofi Kinaata stated that the vehicle was not his and was only sent to pick him up for the event.
According to reports, the vehicle was intended to transport Kinaata and his entourage from Takoradi to Nkroful for the ‘Nkrumahfest’.
The deceased's uncle suggested that Kofi Kinaata is trying to shield the MP and protect his image at the expense of their son (Lawrence).
"The driver involved in the accident is Armah Buah's driver and the vehicle as well. They said he is supposed to take care of all the expenses and not Kinaata so we shouldn't escalate the news.
"I’m disappointed he claimed the motorbike rammed into the vehicle when it was he who overtook. I would’ve recorded a voice note and sent it out for people to know what really happened. I can’t operate my phone properly so I wasn't able to do that,” the uncle said in an exclusive interview with Gossips 24.
