President Mahama owes me Gh₵70,000 - Lawyer

A man who claims to have helped President John Mahama during the 2012 Election Petition hearing, says the President owes him money to the tune of Gh₵70,000.

George Tetteh Wayoe, who was a member of the President’s legal team during the hearing, is demanding payment for his services rendered.

He was speaking Friday to Accra-based Citi FM.

Tetteh Wayoe said: “During the election petition, I needed to move faster and move quickly to work for the President and in Ghana you know that our media houses are in certain areas that our trotros cannot move there so the best mode of transportation is to move in taxis So we move with taxis to get the work done easier, faster and quick and that is what I have been doing since I joined the team.”

“I have spent almost 70,000 ghana for two years for going up and down for the cause of President during the election petition,” he added.

The Lawyer told Citi FM that he wants the President to pay him by giving him a car and an unspecified amount of money.
