The Works and Housing Ministry has dismissed allegations suggesting that the sector Minister, Francis Asenso-Boakye, was engaged in an attempted suspicious sale of government property.
The Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong in a viral video had alleged that there was a collusion between a former Chief Justice and the Sector Minister to sell the official residence of the late Justice Samuel Marful-Sau.
But in a statement issued on Sunday, the Ministry's Public Relations refuted the claims stating categorically that there "has been no such sale of the property."
Explaining further, the Ministry said, the current developments taking place at the official residence of the late Justice Marful-Sau form part of the Government Redevelopment Programme (GRP).
According to them, "The GRP was necessitated by the need to find residential accommodation in Accra for the ever-growing number of public and civil servants."
