Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey\u2019s WhatsApp number, informing him of the defamation suit.<\/p>\n<p>This suit stems from an article written by Owula Mangortey, alleging that Larry Gbevlo-Lartey collected $8 million from a telecommunication company for the soldiers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Previous Defamation Suit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, this is not Owula Mangortey\u2019s first encounter with defamation suits. In 2019, he was sued by Kwame Dankwah also known as Ola Durojaiye, a security expert and private investigator, for GHC1 million.<\/p>\n<p>However, Owula Mangortey claims that Kwame Dankwah was an ex-convict impersonating a military ranger and molesting soldiers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Call for Transparency<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Owula Mangortey is now seeking a public inquiry into the $8 million donation, requesting that the inquiry be held at the Burma Hall in the presence of soldiers and media.<\/p>\n<p>He vows to reveal the name of the telecommunication company, the date, and the official who donated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>-BY Daniel Bampoe<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 A whistleblower, Owula Mangortey, has written to Major-General BK Onwona, the Chief of Army Staff, demanding a public inquiry into $8 million donation allegedly received by Lt.
