Kwame Owusu, Director General of GMA
The Director General of the Ghana Maritime Authority (GMA), Mr. Kwame Owusu went bonkers at a press conference he organized to clear the air on the raging controversies surrounding his administration in recent times.
In what started as civil Question and Answer session between him and the journalists who sought further clarification on the award of contracts as well as the infamous food ordered from his hotel, later resulted in switched anger buttons after TV3’s Komla Klutse took the microphone to ask a question.
The journalist in a video footage obtained by MyNewsGh.com wanted to know if he [Kwame Owusu] believes the board will do a fair job and demanded he clears the air on his relationship with a contractor working on his official residence many say is his cousin.
As if Mr. Owusu was already firing up for the journalist, he threw the first jab and followed it up with many others in a seeming angry tone.
“Komla thank you. I wanted you to have the opportunity because you have been a leader of championing the mischief. In the first place, you even have gone far to take a picture of my hotel and put it out so it is no wonder you are questioning. If you are questioning the integrity of the board, if you are going to question just as you have been doing the integrity of the minister, it is not me to tell you whether the board will be fair or not fair. It is not me Komla to tell you, if you want to go, go to the minister and ask and I don’t know whether you think he should have brought in back contractors. It is not my mandate to determine whether they will be fair or not fair” he said.
