    I was wondering the same. How did they know the guy waited three hours and did not see Mr Jacobs again. Where was Mr Jacobs then before he boarded the plane to USA? You make sense about Mr Jacobs being detained.

    Fellow Ghanaians

    Indeed, we are suffocating now, and it is clearly not because of Sarpong's highfalutian verbiage but the National flatulence from NPPians which is the only one the cosmetics industry ...

    Sarpong we all know than Allotey Jacobs is as ugly as J.K. Bokor, I wonder why you can describe him as Mr. Beautiful. Have you ever taken a careful look at both Alottey Jacobs and J.K. Bokor? ...They both seems to be the like ...

    Your response to Sarpong gives a clear indication of how you perceive this article. A joke; and rightly so. There is nothing of substance to comment on.

  • Ahoof3 7 years ago

    S3kurity (Joe Adjaho) in the white man's land, is no joke and Mr. Beautiful Allotey thought he could just have his way - na lie. Allotey Ahoof3, tell us all that happened

  • Kbb 7 years ago

    Why did Alotey Jacobs denied initially that he was not detained and interrogated? What is he hiding? There is always a reason why people are picked and questioned at airports.

    Where did he say he is arrested? He was detained. Past tense. He is arrested, present tense.

    Detained means briefly prevented from moving around or you are not free to do what you want.

    Namoale said Alotey was detained.

    Namoale was needlessly playing out a scenario that is being used by the NPP as confirmation that Allotey was arrested. Namoale did not need to give that scenario, knowing the mischievous nature of NPP trying to give a dog a b ...
