Flagstaff House Boy Denies Building Mansion

Deputy Chief of Staff, Samuel Abu Jinapor, has denied putting up a huge mansion at Damongo in the Northern Region, ten months into the Akufo-Addo administration.

It appears there are plans by New Patriotic Party (NPP) people both inside and outside the Flagstaff House to kick the young Samuel Abu Jinapor out of the seat of government with accusations and counter accusations of bribery and corruption.

Photos of the alleged” magnificent Villa” being put up by the lawyer at his hometown in Damongo, have gone viral on social media.

His critics linked the alleged construction of the building to the recent bribery and corruption allegation leveled against him by the controversial musician and New Patriotic Party (NPP) card-bearing member, Kwame Asare Obeng, alias A Plus, in the Unibank -Korle Bu saga.

However, Mr. Jinapor, has rejected the claims, saying the allegations are completely false.

It is not yet clear, who owns the house, and residents are yet to help with the real owner of the house.

“For the records, I do not own any landed property in Damongo. Again, I am not building a “mansion” there either. These widely circulating claims, yet again, fit into the grand scheme by full-time detractors to soil my reputation. I, therefore, entreat all and sundry to completely disregard this wicked propaganda,” he posted on his Facebook page yesterday.

He did not, however, deny the bit about his intention to contest for Member of Parliament (MP) on the ticket of the NPP.

Below is the full statement:

My attention has been drawn to a deliberate and vile propaganda circulating on social media to the effect that, I am building a “magnificent villa” in Damongo, in the Northern Region, as part of an alleged ambition “to annex” a Parliamentary seat.

For the records, I do not own any landed property in Damongo. Again, I am not building a “mansion” there either. These widely circulating claims, yet again, fit into the grand scheme by full-time detractors to soil my reputation. I, therefore, entreat all and sundry to completely disregard this wicked propaganda.

Thank you.
