Director of Operations of Friends of Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings (FONKAR), Ernest Owusu-Bempah, has rubbished reports of his "arrest" by the police. Earlier reports monitored on Asempa FM, an Accra-based private radio station suggested that the FONKAR firebrand had been hauled before the police Criminal Investigations Department to substantiate his claim that Mrs Naadu Mills, the First Lady is a beneficiary of the largesse of Alfred Woyome, the embattled NDC financier. Owusu-Bempah, in his umpteenth and perhaps most abrasive attack on the Mills administration, on Thursday accused the First Lady in flowery Twi on Boiling Point, a political discussion programme on Accra-based Oman FM that "Mrs. Naadu Mills collected $5 million from the Woyome judgment debt, an amount which he got with no contract arrangement with the government of Ghana.� However, when peacefmonline.com got through to FONKAR's Director of Operations, he dismissed the report saying he has having a swell time and was flummoxed to be inundated with calls from well-wishers seeking to know the veracity of his arrest by the police "I've not been arrested...neither have i been invited...they (police) know where i live, if they believe i'm guilty of anything they should come and effect my arrest...i'm being bombarded with calls from friends and well-wishers all interested to know about my well-being..., Owusu Bempah told peacefmonline.com a short while ago.
