George Oti Bonsu, a New Patriotic Party (NPP) financier, has detailed how he lost his newly acquired Benz S550 to a former Deputy Chief of Staff in the NPP administration.
“I bought my Benz from a certain man called Fynn. The car was very expensive, so I was preparing myself to go and pay its duties before clearing it.
“Francis Ebo came to my house and saw the car. He asked me about it, and I told him that I had just bought it and was now preparing to pay its duty.
“He said, ‘You, patron, have helped the party so much, and we haven’t done anything for you, so let us help you with this.’
“He said he could take it to airport customs, and because I am a patron, they would reduce the duty a bit for me. So, I said if he could help me, he should, because they said they would take 1.3 something, so I had to prepare before I could pay,” he said in an interview on Okay FM on January 15, 2025.
According to the bitter financier, despite his significant contributions to the party, he is always repaid with evil.
He explained that the vehicle, which according to online reports cost more than GH¢800,000, was dubiously auctioned to the said former Deputy Chief of Staff, who also served as a national security officer at the Jubilee House, for only GH¢82,000.
He added that at the time, NPP General Secretary John Boadu confronted the said Deputy Chief of Staff about the vehicle, but he declined to return it.
“He came back to me and said they would take 1.350. I told him that the price was the same, so he should let the car be there until I was ready to pay because I was traveling. He said he would go and plead for me. But after my return, we went to the place, and they told us that they had auctioned the car. I was like, why would they auction my car?
“I called John Boadu, who was Secretary then, and explained everything to him. I mentioned the person’s name to him. At the time, the person who bought the vehicle was at the Jubilee House, a national security officer at the office of Ken Dapaah at Blue Gate at the stadium.”
He added, “I went there to explain to him that the car belonged to me, so we should pay him and take the car. John Boadu said, how can someone who was asked to pay duties of 1.350 for the car get his car auctioned at 82,000? John Boadu said they should let me pay his money and take my car. He said he was thinking about it. One week later, we went there, and he said no, he wouldn’t give me the car.
“The person was transferred from national security to Deputy Chief of Staff, so after suffering to bring them to power this what they did to me.”
