So he should get ready. If he\u2019s a Director of Legal and he dared to report his sector deputy minister to the police and had the gut to put my picture on their social media handle.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI want to deal with the matter of lies that have been put out about me that I have forcefully demolished the bungalow. What he claimed to be GBC property, a bungalow, there\u2019s no bungalow here. There\u2019s an old dilapidated structure here and let me tell you, there\u2019s one man who has been an occupant of that place.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey\u2019ve been collecting money from him for years. No GBC staff had ever occupied that place for a very long time. It\u2019s a boy\u2019s quarters dilapidated building. Nobody works in GBC had occupied that property and when the estate manager was here and the coordinates were picked, the coordinates that were picked, that included that whole area. So if you want to build there and an old dilapidated structure is there, what do you do?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDon\u2019t you clear it before you do the construction? So this is the site plan I\u2019ll share with you. This is a letter sent by Kwame Waja on the instructions of the Director General. Where have I gone wrong? Where has the assembly gone wrong? The municipal assembly has not done anything untoward. So this issue of a lawless MP, if I\u2019m lawless for the sake of my community, I\u2019ll continue to be lawless.\u201d<\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Member of Parliament for Bortianor Ngleshie Amanfro and Deputy Minister for Information, Sylvester Tetteh, has denied accusations that he was responsible for the demolition of a bungalow owned by the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC).
