A member of the John Mahama Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) team Martin Kpebu has made a shocking revelation.
The private legal practitioner has revealed that state lands valued at $500,000 were sold to former president Akufo-Addo’s appointees for just $12,000.
Martin Kpebu revealed the lands sold to Akufo-Addo appointees for just $12,000 were offered to a vegetable farmers’ association for $500,000.
Speaking on TV3’s KeyPoint program on Saturday, January 18, 2024, Martin Kpebu detailed, “The vegetable farmers association was asked to pay $500,000 for one plot of land. That is where they keep the vegetables before they export them”.
“Just next to them, this same land was offered to ministers, etc., for GHC160,000. If you convert it, it’s $12,000.It’s within the same space. The documents are out there, and the land is around Cantonments” he revealed.
Martin Kpebu further revealed, “We are making efforts to retrieve all the documents. If we gave them another chance, the whole of Ghana would have been gone. This state capture should stop. Members of the erstwhile administration bought the lands at $12,000”.
“The head of the National Investigation Bureau, formerly BNI, reached out to Okudzeto due to the advocacy surrounding the land issue and stated that he would return the land and withdraw his claim. He requested to be excluded from further involvement”, he added.
