Photographs of what was supposed to be a second mansion acquired by President John Mills have turned out a shocking, still-under-construction platform by real estate firm, Regimanuel Gray Limited.Pro-opposition media publications Monday and Tuesday, had pointed to the President acquiring the property two-and-half years into his presidency, however a tour of the “facility” by journalists, led by the Director of Communications at the Presidency, yielded a structure barely off the ground.A director of the estate company, Madam Regina Botwe, claimed the company’s ownership of the under construction building and said it was being put up to house security personnel who work at the president’s house. It is to be rented out to the president, who initiated communication to that effect.A letter dated April 7, 2011 addressed to Regimanuel and signed personally by President Mills, read as follows; RENTAL ACCOMMODATION TO HOUSE SECURITY PERSONNELI wish to thank your company very sincerely for the help extended to me for the past two and half years by erecting tents on your land as accommodation for soldiers and policemen on guard duties at my residence and also providing make-shift toilet facilities for them.However, I have realized that the situation is now creating some inconvenience to my neighbours. Besides this, the security personnel have been exposed to the vagaries of the weather. In view of this, I have decided to resolve the situation by requesting your company to provide on rental basis, permanent rest room and toilet facilities for the security personnel. I shall be personally responsible for the payment of the rent involved.I anticipate your early response to my request. Once more, kindly accept my thanks and gratitude for the help given me so far.Yours faithfully,PROF. JOHN EVANS A7TA MILLS PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF GHANAA response from Regimanuel, dated 11th April 2011, and titled
