Former Minister for Trade and Industry Kobina Tahir Hammond has rejected claims of a fictitious GH¢89.4 million debt. This debt is reportedly linked to the government's One District One Factory program.
Mr. Hammond described the allegations as preposterous. He believes they are a deliberate effort to damage his standing.
The controversy stems from findings in a Bank Transfer Advice. This advice was presented as part of an official report.
Mr. Hammond has issued a strong warning to the Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Godfred Dame. He is also directing his ultimatum to the Minister for Parliamentary Affairs, Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu.
He stated that if the report is not withdrawn from Parliament, he will pursue legal action. Mr. Hammond believes the report contains inaccuracies.
The exact details of the Bank Transfer Advice have not been fully disclosed. The nature of the alleged fictitious debt remains under scrutiny.
This situation involves a former government official and a significant financial program. The legal threat highlights a serious dispute over the report's findings.
