Ibrahim Mahama dares Ken Agyapong

Chief Executive Officer of Engineers & Planners (E&P) Ibrahim Mahama is daring the loudmouth NPP MP for Assin Central Hon. Kennedy Agyepong to immediately put into public domain any picture he has of him and busted cocaine girl, Ruby Adu-Gyamfi.

Ibrahim Mahama, who is the younger brother of President Mahama threw the challenge in reaction to the maverick MP's threat on Adom TV's 'Badwam' yesterday to make public pictures of him and the busted cocaine girl.

In an exclusive interview with the 'Daily Post', Ibrahim, who says he has been having a good laugh at the way NPP activists continue to fall over each other in a desperate plot to smear him with cocaine said he has never and will never have anything to do with illicit drugs.

"I have never treasured such a part to wealth or success. I have been a businessman for many years, working very hard like many others to earn a decent living for myself and family. Illicit drugs are a no go area for me," he said.

From the time he became Vice-President of Ghana to date when he is President, the NPP propaganda machinery has sought to destabilize President John Mahama by smearing members of his family, especially Ibrahim with corruption and now cocaine.

In the latest on-going cocaine scandal in which a Ghanaian woman, Ruby Adu-Gyamfi travelling on an Austrian passport got busted at the Heathrow Airport in London with 12.5 Kg of cocaine, every attempt has been made to smear link Ibrahim to the accused.

In their latest plot which began just this Monday, November 24, 2014, a picture of the busted girl standing with two others in front of a private jet was posted on facebook by NPP activists including one Bismark Agyei Okyere-Darko with the claim that the plane belongs to Ibrahim Mahama.

However, friends close to Ibrahim Mahama exposed the lie, pointing out that the President's brother's private plane has no red mark at the door as was with the picture the NPP activists had posted.

The following morning, it was discovered that the red mark near the entrance into the plane had been cleaned off obviously using Photoshop. The people behind this invidious agenda were determined to deceived the public into believing the plane in question belongs to Ibrahim and that he has something to do with Ruby who can be seen in the picture standing by the plane.

However, friends of Ibrahim were back to strip naked the mischief behind the picture by pointing out that while the said plane had two stripes, blue and gold, Ibrahim's plane has only one stripe which is blue in colour.

They posted the picture of the businessman's plane against the one Ruby was standing by to show the difference between the two planes and expose the mischief.

What is more while Ibrahim's plane is a Bombadier 604, the plane by which Ruby was standing is a Gulf Stream G6000. Clearly, these are two different planes. With this, another NPP attempt at smearing Ibrahim Mahama has failed.

Meanwhile, many are wondering if there is any link between Kennedy Agyepong and the busted cocaine girl because he seems to know so much about her. The MP is the only one who seems to know Ruby spent three years in jail in Holland. He was the first also to reveal that the two other women who made the journey to London with Ruby had slipped back to town.
