MP In Fraudulent Insurance Claim

THE suspected criminal activities of NPP MPs continue unabated.

After Hon. Mrs Grace Coleman, NPP MP for Asokore-Effiduase (violation of US immigration, naturalization, slavery and human rights laws), Hon. Peter Kwaku Amoabeng, NPP MP for Lower West Akim (fraudulent visa deal for a fake wife and two fake children), and Hon. Kennedy Agyepong, NPP MP for Assin North (violation of guarantee for fraudster father’s bail). It is now the turn of the NPP MP for Odotobri Constituency in the Amansie East District of the Ashanti Region, Hon. S. Nkrumah Gyimah.

“Ghana Palaver” Intelligence reported last Tuesday that the MP had fraudulently forged and increased the insurance premium on his Vento vehicle from ?30 million to ?120 million after the vehicle was involved in an accident and put in a fraudulent insurance claim for the increased amount from Provident Insurance Company, that the MP’s fraudulent conduct was reported to the NPP Government and that Senior Minister J. H. Mensah and Attorney-General, Papa Owusu-Ankomah have been working very hard to ‘hush hush’ and kill the story entirely.

“Ghana Palaver’s” further investigation have revealed that the matter is more serious than the original story had it and requires full-scale investigation and possible impeachment of the MP.

According to our investigations, Hon. Nkrumah Gyimah increased the insurance premium on his Vento vehicle from ?30 million to ?120 million. A few weeks later, he reported to his insurers, Provident Insurance Company, that his Vento vehicle had been involved in a road accident. Consequently, he put in a claim for the amount of insurance.

Suspicion was heightened as to why this claim should come in so soon after raising his premium.

Before his claim, the MP had gone to the Volta Region to purchase a similar Vento vehicle, which had been involved in an accident and sent it to a mechanical workshop at the East Legon Residential Area. He changed the number plates of the accident vehicle he had bought.

The Provident Insurance agent at Parliament House became suspicious, so he traveled to the MP’s hometown and to his surprise, he saw the MP’s Vento vehicle parked nicely in his garage.

The agent’s informant at the MP’s hometown told him that the MP had been there and left for Accra. He further told the agent that the MP came to the town with a vehicle belonging to the National Commission on Culture.

The informant denied that the MP’s vehicle was involved in an accident and pointed out to the agent the MP’s car, which was neatly parked in his garage.

The MP, who was lambasting the insurance officials for delaying his claim, later had the shock of his life when the Claims Manager called in the Parliamentary Insurance agent to find out the reason for the delay of the claims by the MP.

The agent in reply spilled the beans and asked the MP if truly his vehicle was involved in an accident. He therefore, asked his Claims Manager to call in the Police.

The MP then broke down and confessed. He then telephoned Senior Minister J. H. Mensah and Attorney-General Papa Owusu-Ankomah who rushed in to beg the Manager to let the case end there, but as walls have ears, the information eventually leaked out.

Our investigations continue.
