\u201cSomeone like Okudzeto Ablakwa, Felix Kwakye Ofosu among others have done nothing in life but rich now, we saw the lavish wedding by Okudzeto Ablakwa in this country. Where did he get the money from as a university graduate with no working experience?”<\/em>

\u201cI have known Okudzeto Ablakwa from years back. He couldn\u2019t even afford to pay for his car maintenance. He was nobody but when he entered politics, things changed drastically. As I speak, his new mansion in his hometown is more than a palace,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he claimed.

\u201cThere are so many things happening in this country. People are stealing from the state,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he lamented.
