Outspoken Bishop Daniel Obinim has turned his guns on Founder and General Overseer of Glorious World Power Ministries International, Rev. Isaac Owusu Bempah for doubting his spiritual prowess.

The founder and General Overseer of the International God's Way Church flared up during an altercation with Rev. Owusu Bempah on Accra-based Happy FM while reacting to his [Bempah] claim of hiding behind religiosity to champion the cause of the devil.

OMG:Obimin Run Away From Bimpah................

Image result for owusu bempah 2016 Founder of International Godsway Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim disappointed hundreds of Happy FM listeners after he failed to turn up for a face-off with Rev. Owusu Bempah at the premises of Happy FM Thursday afternoon after both Men of God agreed to prove to the whole world, who had more spiritual powers.

Hundreds of people had thronged the premises of Happy FM to witness what could probably have been a replica of what happened between Elijah and the prophets of baal in the Bible but they were left disappointed as Bishop Obinim failed to turn up for the contest which had garnered a lot of anticipation.

Rev. Owusu Bempah, founder and leader of Glorious Word International Church, has earlier in the week described Obinim’s modus operandi as satanic and further alleged that Obinim was ordained by a fetish priest after sleeping in a coffin but the latter didn’t take these accusations lightly and routinely threw invectives and vituperations at Rev. Owusu Bempah on his television network.

Responding to Bishop Obinim’s insults on Happy FM’s ‘Nsem Pii’ with Nyansa Boakwa, Rev. Owusu Bempah reiterated that for Obinim to claim that he could transmogrify into a snake to bite anyone he wants, he couldn’t have been called by God and added that Obinim was getting mad.

Ablekuma West MP Ursula Owusu-Ekuful says she has noticed a trend that women who goof in President Mahama’s administration do not get a second chance unlike their male counterparts.

The gender activist explained men who mess up in government are ‘rehabilitated’ and kept at the presidency as Presidential Staffers.

Listing top women officials who have been given the sack, the legislator pointed to the sacking of Deputy Communications minister Victoria Hammah, Deputy Gender minister, Dela Sowah and Transport minister, Dzifa Attivor.

Victoria Hammah was sacked in November 2013 after her unguarded comments were caught on tape and leaked. She had vowed to make GH? 1 million her target in government in the leaked tape.

Transport minister Dzifa Attivor resigned after news broke that government had used oil revenue to spray 113 public buses at an over-priced value of 3.6 million Ghana cedis.

Adding to the list, lecturer with the GIMPA Business school Jemimah Nunoo also cited the sacking of the CHRAJ boss over abuse of her office

Breaking News:Woyome Must Be Investigated..........Ursula

Image result for ursula owusu
Attorney General and Minister of Justice Marietta Brew Appiah Oppong has been urged to initiate efforts to contest the Court of Appeal’s ruling on Thursday March 10, 2016, upholding the High Court’s decision to acquit businessman Alfred Agbesi Woyome of defrauding the state of GHS51.2 million.

The Member of Parliament for Ablekuma West, Mrs Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, said on Saturday, March 12 that there was enough grounds for the appellate court to quash the ruling of sacked High Court judge John Ajet-Nasam.

“The Court of Appeal, thankfully for us, is not the final opinion on this matter. I urge the Attorney General, if they are serious about protecting the interest of the state in this matter, to appeal the decision of the Court of Appeal,” the lawyer and lawmaker insisted.

“I disagree that anyone served with the facts of this matter can say that Woyome deserved to be paid [GHS] 51 million.”

Mrs Owusu-Ekuful, in spite of her opposition to the ruling on the case, stated that the verdict was of little surprise to her, given the actions of some government officials in the matter, which were everything, but in the state’s interest.

“I am not surprised Mr Woyome has won. And the conduct of the office of the Attorney General is what has resulted in this. Because the man (Mr Woyome) didn’t walk in there and take the money by himself. Officials of the state, the legal advisor to the state, the one who is in charge of protecting the legal interest of the state, for some reason, contrived to hand over these monies to Woyome,” she noted.

She said despite court records quoting Waterville as having already paid Mr Woyome, and the Kufuor administration writing to the government under the NDC that Mr Woyome did not deserve any claim, “somehow my sister Betty Mould Idrissu and Hon Barton-Odro [then Attorney-General and Deputy, respectively] decided that: ‘OK, let’s look at this matter again’”.

“And even when the court had said: ‘Don’t pay everything’, even when the president of the republic had said: ‘Halt, don’t give anybody any money’, you go ahead and approve a payment of GHS51million to this man. And the question I ask myself is: ‘Why was [Alfred] Woyome standing alone in the dock?’ Who did he act in concert with to deprive the state of this money? And where are those people? They are untouchable because they are key members of the NDC administration.”

He urged persons in positions of trust for the state to “move beyond politicisation of issues when the interest of the state is at stake” and take decisions that will benefit Ghana rather what will profit their “political traditions”.

“We are doing ourselves too much disservice as a nation when we focus too narrowly on the interests of our political cronies, our friends,” she added.

Mr Woyome was paid the GHS51.2 million after he sued the state over an alleged breach of a purported contract between him and the government. In connection with the termination of the same alleged contract, foreign construction firm Waterville Holdings BVI, was also paid €25 million

BreakiNG News: Wayome In Hot Water Again

Image result for woyome
Businessman Alfred Woyome must not get away with the GHS51.2 million he was fraudulently paid by the state, Deputy Finance Minister Mona Quartey has said.

In her view, Mr Woyome (whose acquittal of criminal charges by a High Court, in connection with the payment, was recently upheld by the Court of Appeal) got the money for doing nothing, and, thus, every legal avenue available must be exploited by the Attorney General to get him to answer for it.

“…Cases that involve monies paid to people for no work done or no work that can be seen always create emotional problems, and that’s why I guess Abdul Malik [Kweku Baako] said something is going wrong in this nation. And, especially, when the person would come out to say he’s forgiving certain people; those kinds of statements don’t help the situation. First and foremost there is nothing to show for the monies that was given to him, however, you did say rightly that it was about the process…what I would say is that this matter has protracted; it has gone on and on and on…and the last thing that this nation needs is for anyone to take GHS51 million for no work done, one, and then to almost always tease the rest of us that: ‘Well I’ve gotten away with it.’

“I believe as Attorney General, as she [Marietta Brew Appiah Oppong] said earlier that she would appeal, she would appeal again. I suspect strongly that she will appeal again. People are tired in this country of people coming up with judgment debts …and then claiming monies that are not rightfully due them, at the end of the day…there is something called natural law, there is something called common sense, …so we can’t continue to encourage or allow people to walk away like this, otherwise people will even turn this into a business and they will look for contracts, find little loopholes and create all sorts of troubles…so, it has to come to an end and this nation has to decide that it will not encourage such attitude and behaviour anymore,” Ms Quartey told Samson Lardi Anyenini on Joy FM’s news analysis programme ‘Newsfile’ on Saturday March 12

Mr Woyome was paid the GHS51.2 million after he sued the state over an alleged breach of a purported contract between him and the Government. In connection with the termination of the same alleged contract, foreign construction firm, Waterville Holdings BVI, was also paid €25 million.

In the Waterville case, the Supreme Court, on June 14, 2013, declared as null and void, and of no operative effect, the contract between the firm and the Government of Ghana titled: ‘Contract for the Rehabilitation (Design, Construction, Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment) of a 40,000 Seating Capacity Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi, Ghana’ entered into between the Republic of Ghana and Waterville Holdings Limited (BVI), of P.O. Box 3444, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands on April 26, 2006.

The ruling was premised on the basis that the alleged contract, which was the ground for the payment of the judgment debt to Waterville, following its alleged illegal termination, contravened Article 181 (5) of the 1992 Constitution, which required such contracts to go to Parliament for approval. The same court ruled that Mr Woyome did not merit the GHS51.2 million based on similar grounds.

Mr Woyome promised to refund the money by the end of 2015. In March last year, his lead counsel, Sarfo Boabeng, told the nine-member Supreme Court panel that heard the AG’s application for the retrieval of the money that his client had already resolved to make the payment at the end of 2015.

Mr Woyome’s accounts and assets were frozen about three years ago after he was arrested and charged for causing financial loss to the State, as well as defrauding by false pretence, with regards to the payment made to him between 2009 and 2010 under Mrs Betty Mould-Iddrisu and Mr Ebo Barton-Odro, as Attorney General and Deputy, respectively.

However, he was acquitted and discharged by a High Court on two counts of defrauding by false pretences and causing financial loss to the state.

According to the presiding judge, John Ajet-Nasam – who is one of 34 judges being investigated by the Chief Justice for corruption and who was recently removed from the judiciary on the orders of President John Mahama after investigations regarding his bribery conduct found him to have sullied his office – the prosecutors failed to prove Mr Woyome fraudulently obtained the GHS51.2 million.

Justice Ajet-Nasam also indicted the prosecution for failing to call Mrs Mould-Iddrisu, Mr Rex Magnus Danquah, Mr Barton-Odro, Mr Paul Asimenu, Mr Samuel Nerquaye-Tetteh and others – who had all given written opinions that Mr Woyome was entitled to the money – as witnesses.

Subsequently, a civil suit on the same case by Mr Amidu resulted in the apex court ruling that Mr Woyome, as well as Waterville, did not merit the payment for the work they allegedly did for the state ahead of Ghana’s hosting of CAN 2008, since he had not parliamentary approval for the contract that covered that endeavour.

Anti-corruption crusader Martin Amidu recently filed a suit at the Supreme Court praying the highest court of the land to throw out a suit filed by one Abdulai Yusif Fanash Muhammed, in which he is praying the same court to overturn its own ruling in which it said Mr Woyome must refund the GHS51.2 million.
