One of President Akufo-Addo’s daughters, Gyankroma Akufo-Addo has denied purchasing a luxury home in London.
Her denial comes on the back of reports in a section of the media that she has purchased and owned a luxury building in the UK worth £9.3 million.
According to the report published online, the apartment is a 5-bed Edwardian palatial purpose built property in one of the city’s plush areas.
But in a rejoinder to deny the report, Gyankroma Akufo-Addo, who is also the Director of the Creative Arts Council in Ghana described the publication as false and baseless, indicating that it was a creation of her father’s political opponents to dent his image.
Read her statement below:
I DON’T OWN £9.3 MILLION BUILDING IN LONDON – GYANKROMA AKUFO-ADDO
My attention has been drawn to a story published by the website “www.thenewstateman.com” titled “Real Estate Collections: London’s Property Market receives its new top customer, Gyankroma Akufo-Addo from Ghana at a whopping £9.3m”
This publication is nothing but an outright lie and a total fabrication. I do not own any properties in London or in any part of the world, let alone own a “5-bed Edwardian palatial” building, valued at £9.3 million mansion.
It is important to state that this website, purposely built for publishing falsehoods, is the same website that indicated recently that my father, President Akufo-Addo, was bringing a bill to Parliament to legalise same-sex marriage – another fabrication.
Obviously, the strategy by political opponents is to bandy more of such baseless stories and falsehoods around, employing the use of fake websites, with the aim of creating disaffection for the President and his administration.
I urge the good people of Ghana to ignore this and other publications from this fake news portal and treat it with the contempt that it deserves.
