Osafo-Maafo Knows About My "Twins" -Gizella

... She May Not Come After All

Ms. Giselle Yazji, the woman at the center of the controversy surrounding the acquisition of the hotel building, now referred to as 'Hotel Kufuor, claims Mr. Yaw Osafo-Maafo, Minister for Education and Sports, the Minister of financial and Economic Planning, in whose ministry Giselle worked, and one Kwame Maafo (Boateng?), Minister of Health as persons who knew of her pregnancy-delivery and called her whilst she was in hospital.

She mentioned also Kwame Nketia, a permanent fixture at the presidency. Nobody knows what he does, but he is anywhere the President goes.

Meanwhile, it is believed Ms. Yazji may not come to Ghana tonight, as expected earlier.

Joy FM news reported yesterday that though Ms. Yazji had reservations on British Airways flight to Ghana on Friday, it had been cancelled.

Giving hints of what was likely to be behind her difficulty in traveling down on Radio Gold yesterday morning, Ms. Yazji said, she had received a visitor from British Airways informing her Ghana's High Commissioner to London, had contacted them that they did not "let me go tomorrow but we are going to work at it today if this is true. Please call me in the afternoon and I will tell you what went on," she said.

The High Commissioner in a Joy FM interview however, denied this assertion.
