My attention has been drawn to some allegations made against me on some radio stations and on social media. I wish to thank all my admirers for calling on me to ignore and not respond. But unfortunately, lies become truth in the psyche of many people in Ghana when they aren’t corrected and so, I plead that I am allowed to respond, not to the grand scheme against me because of my vociferousness against bad governance in the previous regime, but merely as a way to set the records straight.

I have not recruited 28 women and two men as alleged. I am not in charge of recruitment at my workplace. Recruitment over the years, I am told, has been done professionally by a private outsourced agency that follows a rigorous selection process.

Part of my work requires that I travel, and out of the over 38 opportunities, I have only honoured 4, and these were with the expressed approval and permission from the Chief of Staff. Anyone can check for the evidence.

I have never travelled in First Class or Business class. I remain the only CEO in Ghana who travels on an ECONOMY TICKET. Again, the evidence of my boarding passes for all four trips is there

My Lawyers and other lawyers I don’t even know have taken over the matter and will deal with the individuals behind the baseless allegations this week.

I assure all that I know the public confidence in me and I won’t do anything to betray the trust reposed in me. All must also be assured that baseless allegations have never been enough to silence me. I would remain myself and would always speak my mind on every national issue while focusing on my core job of championing the interest of shippers forcefully and proactively.

Thanks to all.
