It operates a feed manufacturing plant in Tema.Mr Tetteh told Joy News that since the discovery of Ghana’s first bird flu case some two weeks ago, he has been subjected to all forms of harassment and intimidation.He attributed the source of the report to his competitors whom he said are seeking to run down his business.Mr. Tetteh has described the allegations as baseless only calculated to destroy his business.He said soon after the announcement of outbreak of bird flu in Tema about 10 journalists visited the company’s drying floor without any prior notice to management to film as well as do write-ups on the place.“But on television every now and then they show our site with another site that my company in particular would not use that type of site for processing fish,” he told Joy News.
