Afenyo Markin: Did you have the benefit of any secondary source of Income?
Sam George: Mr Chairman I am married to a very industrious woman.
Afenyo Markin: I don’t get it please explain to us, what exactly you mean.
Sam George: I mean my wife takes care of me.
Afenyo Markin: an industrious woman who takes care of you, are you suggesting that she also paid your school fees for your UK program?
Sam George: Mr Chairman I believe this committee has asked me to furnish them with records of the fees that I paid, I don’t see where we are going with this.
Afenyo Markin: If the Chairman allows my questions, I followed up based on what you said, I never asked your wife, and I didn’t ask you about her business you said your wife takes care of you, these are your words. Are you aware your wife through her industry has been paying her taxes?
The monies that your wife gives you which you say is your second source of income do you pay taxes on them?
Sam George: Mr Chairman I have no point in time before this committee and I am record said that my wife gives me money, I have no point in time, made that claim, my claim before this committee is that my wife takes care of me, and I didn’t say he gives me money.
