Former Trade Minister Kobina Tahir Hammond is demanding the withdrawal of a report from Parliament. He views the report's claims about a GH¢89.4 million debt as untrue.
The debt is reportedly linked to the government's One District One Factory initiative. Hammond stated the allegations are "preposterous" and an attempt to damage his reputation.
He has issued a direct warning to the Attorney-General and the Minister for Information. Hammond stated he will sue them if the report is not removed from parliamentary records.
This statement comes after findings were presented in a Bank Transfer Advice document. The specifics of the report are not fully detailed but concern financial transactions.
Hammond believes the findings are deliberately misleading. He is prepared to take legal action to clear his name.
The Attorney-General's office or the Minister for Information have not yet issued a public statement regarding the demand.
The report's contents and the subsequent allegations are causing significant controversy.
Hammond's stance indicates a strong defense against what he considers baseless accusations.
