BNI Invites FONKAR Kingpin Over $5m �Bribe� To First Lady

The Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) has summoned the Director of Operations of the Friends of Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings (FONKAR), Ernest Owusu-Bempah, for alleging that the First Lady, Mrs. Ernestina Naadu Mills, benefited from the infamous GhC51 million judgment debt payment. The First Lady was alleged to have received $5 million from the embattled businessman Alfred Woyome, after he was paid a judgment debt of GhC 51 million. A statement issued by a Deputy Minister of Information, James Agyenim-Boateng, described the allegation has �false, baseless and unfounded, especially as there is no iota of truth in the said allegation.� Speaking to Citi News, Mr. Owusu-Bempah confirmed the national investigative outfit invited him this morning and will be appearing before it on Wednesday. He said no reasons were given for his invitation. �This morning I was invited to come out there and meet them,� he said. �Tomorrow, I�ll get there and meet them with my team of lawyers. I�m a citizen of Ghana and if the law wants me I have to be there.� �They didn�t tell me what they want, but I�m sure when I get there I�ll know. I will be there first thing tomorrow morning. I wouldn�t want to say anything for now since it�s gone into investigation and when it gets there the whole nation will get to know.�
