As a result, he contacted Akosua for assistance.<\/p>\n<p>The musician, the prosecutor said, told the businessman that she had a plot of land for rent, but the businessman wanted an outright sale.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLater, Akosua Agyapong introduced Agyemang to the businessman as her brother who had a plot of land opposite the West Hills Mall for sale. The businessman, after inspecting the land, showed interest,\u2019\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey then took the businessman to the Lands Commission, went into one of the offices and came out with someone who confirmed that the land indeed belonged to Agyemang. Upon hearing this, the businessman became convinced,\u2019\u2019 ASP Boafo said.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, the prosecutor said, the businessman paid GH\u00a2105,000 for the land and later gave a Toyota RAV 4 vehicle valued at GH\u00a2100,000 to Agyemang for another plot of land.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n\u201cWhen the businessman went to work on the land, another person came to claim ownership of the land with original documents.<\/p>\n<p>He reported the matter to the police, leading to Akosua Agyapong and Agyemang\u2019s arrest.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 32 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Sunday, 10 December 2017 Source: Graphic.com.gh 2017-12-10 Akosua Agyapong, Highlife musician The businessman who was allegedly defrauded by highlife musician, Akosua Agyapong, and her brother in a GH\u00a2105,000 land deal has filed a civil action to reclaim his money.
