Event Organiser attempts to bribe journalist to kill story

Organisers of the 2016 Millenium marathon, led by a man claiming to have strong attachment to key political figures.

After promising to reward the winners with cars and mouthwatering cash prizes, he has failed to do so after over 8 months.

The organiser, believed to be a renowned politician, succeeded in cunningly involving former president Mahama, former AMA boss Oko Vanderpuiye, Mahama Ayariga, Nii Lante Vanderpuiye among other top politicians in the event.

The NDC government donated GHc1million to support the event.
The above mentioned politicians were made to present winners of the event with cars and dummy cheques.

But the organisers took back the cars with claims of branding them for the winners. The cars never returned to the winners. The cheques bounced.

Winners of the competition (two from Kenya, and Ethiopia) have joined their Ghanaian winners to fight for their prizes. The cars and million prizes are still with the organiser 8 months after the event.

Now, we are in possession of a secret recording, in which the organiser and his supposed operations manager are caught on tape trying to BRIBE three journalists to KILL the story.

An attempt to deprive the innocent winners their prizes.
