Ghanaian artiste manager, entertainment pundit, and graphic artist Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson, popularly known as Bullgod, has shared how former President Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo spearheaded his arrest and had him placed in a prison cell.
According to him, speaking on Changes on Joy Prime, he addressed the Menzgold saga during a television interview, stating that the former president would not complete his term because of the pain caused to victims whose investments were locked up.
He said he was arrested immediately by a police convoy right after the interview and put behind bars, which he believes was done under Akufo-Addo’s instructions.
“I said he needed to pay the money before he finished his term if eno be so he no go finish his term; he go run away and boom they said I had threatened him. I went to one of the channels, I reach house and wanted to go buy some fufu. So, I was speaking to my PA and then I saw four wheel drives and boys are jumping out with bullet proofs with guns,” he told Roselyn Felli.
‘I spent three days at the BNI Cells and was moved because they cannot prosecute me and handed me over to the police. When I was done with my interrogation with the police. They made sure I was put in the hardest cells you can ever find in Accra. Like where they put armed robbers, rapists, killers, etc. I was put in the SWAT cells for two days,” he added.
Bullgod continued by saying that the BNI cells were very large and that he was the only one there. As a result, he was afraid to sleep because he believed his detention was politically motivated and that anything could happen at night, so he stayed awake for three days.
He also revealed that the police are not responsible for feeding prisoners, so if no one brings you food, you remain hungry. He added that whenever food was brought in, he and the others shared it among themselves.
Fortunately for Bullgod, he said he was spared the prison cell leader’s routine because of his popularity.
