The assembly is reported to have withdrawn a total of GH₵187,000 from the contractor’s account at the Maltaaba Community Bank in Bongo.
Manasseh Azure Awuni, whose investigation led to the Apex Bank investigation reports that the assembly used the contractor’s company to award a contract to itself without the contractor’s knowledge.
