The Head of task force for Ayawaso West Municipal Assembly and Assemblyman for the Roman Ridge electoral area, Mr. Samuel Dua has rendered an unqualified apology to businessman Mr. Ibrahim Mahama for wrongfully accusing him of building on a parcel of land belonging to the state.

Mr. Samuel Dua, made the accusation two weeks ago on UTV.

But in a new twist, he has remorsefully rendered an unconditional apology to Mr. Ibrahim Mahama on the same platform on which he made the accusations. According to him, the allegations are ‘baseless’ and he is sorry.

“Two weeks ago I spoke to UTV about a parcel of land at Red light, East Legon belonging to the state. I accused Mr. Ibrahim Mahama of allocating to himself the said land and went ahead to put up a building on the said land. But later I realized the said building does not belong to Mr. Ibrahim Mahama. First of all, let me use this opportunity to render an unqualified apology to Mr. Ibrahim Mahama. I am pleading with him to forgive me for saying the building belongs to him. He should please forgive me” Mr. Dua pleaded.
