Ask Ibrahim Mahama, how much his company borrowed from Merchant Bank and compare it to the amount they finally negotiated to pay to settle the debt.

Let the full facts come out.

Further, who was behind the company that eventually purchased Merchant Bank at a fraction of the cost?

The corruption in that country is sickening!

When you are publishing things like these you should be clear about the facts. This book has now been discredited. I wanted to but one but now I will not. Who knows how many of such falsehoods are in it.

I stand to be corrected, he said the bank was owed in 2013 by that person.
You bring a proof showing you paid money in 2014.

Did he owe the bank in 2013?

Indeed you have saved yourself some COINS FOR NOT PURCHASING MANASEH'S INTELLECTUAL BOOK...

Apparently, you ( @May ) can perfectly read, BUT, YOU CANNOT PERFECTLY COMPREHEND. Therefore purchasing the book would have been a TOTAL WASTE OF YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY.

Kindly read these two paragraphs of this very article that you ( @May ) have commented, below...
....
Investigative journalist, Manasseh Azure Awuni, in his book titled 'The President Ghana Never Got,' has stirred conversations over the 2013 sale of Merchant Bank, now known as Universal Merchant Bank (UMB), and the alleged involvement of Ibrahim Mahama.
.....
You ( @May ) can clearly see, MANASEH'S BOOK IS SAYING,,,... IBRAHIM MAHAMA WAS ALLEGEDLY AMONG THE DEBTORS OWING MERCHANT BANK IN 2-0-1-3 ( 2013 ), which led to the BANK'S SALE....

Kindly see below the year IBRAHIM MAHAMA SETTLED HIS DEBT AFTER THE BANK WAS ALREADY SOLD IN 2O13...
....
The document showed that Merchant Bank (Ghana) Limited confirmed receipt of the negotiated settlement amount of US$28 million from AFREXIM Bank in favor of Engineers and Planners Company Limited on January 31, 2014.
....
As everyone can read and hopefully COMPREHEND,....
MANASEH HAS NOT WRONGED ANYONE WITH WRONG INFORMATION....
...
Manaseh clearly said, IBRAHIM MAHAMA DID OWE MERCHANT BANK IN 2013 ( which is accurate )..

IBRAHIM MAHAMA SETTLED HIS DEBT WITH MERCHANT BANK IN 2014...

So where has Manaseh gone wrong...??

There is nothing false about what Mr Azure wrote and any intelligent person even from this article can tell Mr Ibrahim paid less amount than he actually borrowed to settle what he owed to the bank and the word NEGOTIATED is the key word here.

I remember this story well at the time. Mr Ibrahim company Engineer and Planners took a $52 million.loan and ended up paying only $28 million.

These people are worse than armed robbers. Through their powerful connections, they take big loans from the banks and pay less back and they become fabulously rich through such deaks.

Nonsensical nonsense, even if it is true that Mr Ibrahim paid $28 million to settle his debt with Merchant Bank in 2014, the coded word here is NEGOTIATED.

If Mr Ibrahim Maha paid a negotiated settlement of $28 million, it means he or his company owed more than the $28 million he paid but the bank at that time saw it as the best they can get from him.

If my memory serves me right and I can recollect correctly, Mr Ibrahim Mahama's Engineer Planners took a 52 or 57 million dollars loan and ended up paying only $28 million so Mr Mannaze was right to say Ibrahim was part the reason why that bank failed.

Sarpong, I believe you comprehending problem of the Queen's language. Negotiated payment could mean that was the balance of the principal and interest on the outstanding balance of the loan that both parties agreed upon. The bank never stated anywhere that the company never paid a penny after taking the loan. The company was called upon to settle the remaining loan balance in full while the loan term was not up for full settlement, hence the negotiation.

Manasseh should always be careful when discussing controversial topics without thoroughly checking his facts. In my opinion, he is generally a good journalist. However, the 'Ford gift' case and the story about 'guinea fowls flying to Burkina Faso' were largely disingenuous and seemed aimed at gaining undeserved fame.

I think that Manasseh just don’t like the Mahamas!
Ibrahim must actually sue him and put an injunction on the sale of the book until that lie and incorrect information is deleted from the fake book.

Mahama is corrupt. It is a fact that Mahama is corrupt. Mahama's family is rich because Mahama became the President of Ghana by default. Atta Mills died and left the Presidency for Mahama because he was the VP. When Mahama gave Ghana's bauxite to Ibrahim Mahama, Ghana was quiet. We must thank God for Nana Akufo-Addo and his NPP otherwise Ghana's bauxite would belong to Ibrahim. Now, it would be a great mistake to vote Mahama back as the President of Ghana. It means that we do think.

When was the debt paid? Was it retired as scheduled? No one is saying the debt was not paid. If you borrow monies from me and you did not meet the payment schedule, the loan went past due, and deprived me of my livelihood, resulting in my death, then you decided to pay later to my family after my demise, the harm is already caused even though you eventually paid off the debt. He took the money and defaulted over a long period depriving the bank of liquidity. This nonsense must stop! What was his credit rating at the time?????
