The Saturday, October 28, 2023, edition of United Showbiz on UTV experienced a heated exchange between panel members.
The cause of the exchange was the decision by the Ghana Police Service to deposit to the Bank of Ghana, an amount paid to the service by the Chief Executive Officer of embattled Menzgold Ghana, Nana Appiah Mensah alias NAM1.
According to Bullgod, the police acted in bad faith when the money which was supposed to be paid directly to some customers of the defunct gold investment dealership firm was deposited with the bank rather.
He suggested that NAM1’s arrangement with the police was for the service to assist in providing security for the distribution of the money and not necessarily to take charge in its distribution.
“He did not give the money to the police to share. He made agreement with the police that he needed security and therefore sought permission to use their premises to disburse the money, the police said yes you can come and do that and he sent the money to the police.
"Now after sending the money to the police, they have gone to deposit the money in their account saying its an exhibit,” he alleged.
His assertion, however, was rejected by other panel members.
According to Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo, the money should not have been given to the police in the first place but rather paid directly to the customers.
Bullgod then suggested that the police then should not have accepted the money but Ola retorted saying “we don’t reject money.”
