This particular MP stood for elections to escape prosecution when he was at GIPC. I am really sure the family has been short changed and it is simply fair that the MP isn't allowed to even represent his constituency anymore. ...

Only God know what he did as CEO. Thieves inside out. Ashantis wont earn money the genuine hard way. They wont go to school but become shoeshine boys, sell used clothes at kantamanto whilst looking out for who to defraud.

I MEAN "GHANA AND AFRICA'S PROBLEMS"
Unfortunately, Moses Brew was recuperating from a lorry accident and, therefore, directed that the cheque be issued in the name of G.K.A African Trade Service, a company owned by the MP, George Aboagye.

My understanding is that the land had already been sold by one agent and it was at the first installment payment stage that the MP was instructed to receive the check on that agent's behalf. The point of the MP selling the la ...

1. Did Mr Moses Brew, CEO of BREWMO who is the agent agreed with the family that due to his health status Mr George Aboagye the MP was acting on BREWMO's behalf to collect and pay the fu ...

Think about it? If the MP company was not involved in the sale of the land, then why was the cheque issued in his company's name? The MP's company was given the responsibility to sell this land at Ghc10,000 an acre and as a b ...

Mr Aboagyes's reason for acting the way he did raises some issues:
1. As the CEO of the GIPC, his main official duty was to "promote investment" in Ghana. So identifying and bringing to Ghana, such an investor fell directly ...

Look at the date the land was sold, somewhere in December 2012. Was Mr Aboagye at that time CEO of the GIPC, when in December 2012 he was a member of Parliament?
There are a lot of information missing so let's wait and hea ...

Per the story, Mr. Aboagye stated that he brought down the investors "when he was the CEO..." That statement implies that the only means by which he came into contact with the investor was his office as a CEO of GIPC. As such ...

Ken, do you think the buyers would have issued a Check to Aboagye's company if his company was not a party to the transaction? I don't think the company will do a dumb thing like that.
Did you read Mr Aboagye's Company was NOT the Third Party Agent in the Sale of the Land? The Third party with whom the agency contract was signed was BREWMO - Mr Brews Company. In any case even if anybody deserves an Agency F ...

Tell me why the buyer issued a Check in his company's name if he is not an interested party to the contract. Common sense.
As a CEO of GIPC, whose job is to bring investment into the country. He has to benefit from any investment he brings even though he is paid to do the job. He bought the land for 10k from the family and sold it for 15k to the ...

TROKOSI TRIBALIST
The MP is not even an Asanti and these trokosis are at it again. The Ahanta West is in Western Region and the Ahantas too have names like Aboagye so where did the Asantis come in here?
Forgive him he is ignorant and naive,he is not abreast with current issues.This same man had a problem just before the election but managed to go through it.
My friend, you must first educate yourself to polish your English language so you can better express yourself. To say that Ashantis don't go to school means they don't attend classes but are trying to say they don't educate ...

The MP is called Aboagye and bingo, he is an Asante. Even if he is an Asante so what. Mr Aboagye is from Ahanta. He is of course Akan but not Asante.
