Nana Kojo Aggrey condemns Social Media black mails

A prominent Agona Chief, Nana Richmond Kojo Aggrey (Nana Takyi Weabo V), who also doubles as the CEO of OSAM ENERGY GROUP, has condemned what he describes as 'Blackmail gossips' being circulated by some faceless cowards on Social Media who are scheming moves to extort monies from him.

According to him, some reports making rounds on Social Media that he is wanted in the USA for neglecting his Daughter India Nana Aggrey, in the USA is malicious and a grand attempt to stain his hard won integrity and reputation.

"I have never refused to claim my biological daughter in the USA, it is just the work of some faceless cowards who are jealous of my success in life, so they have ganged up against me just to make money from me, but take it from me, it would never work," highly incensed Nana Kojo Aggrey, has told ModernGhana in an exclusive interview.

He further explained that the girl in question is indeed his daughter and he had offered her child support since infancy until she turned 18-years-old and she now has a son with her boyfriend so she is old enough to cater for herself.

"I cut off support for her because she is not ready to go to school and has a baby boy now so she is old enough to take care of herself. Again, the baby she has now has a father so the father should take full responsibility and not the grandfather which is me."

Nana Richmond N. Aggrey was born on April 17, 1950, and raised at Agona Swedru in the Coastal/Central Region of Ghana, West Africa. He graduated in 1974 in Electrical Engineering from the University of Science and Technology in Kumasi, Ghana. Thirty three years ago he departed Ghana to pursue an Advanced Degree in Electrical Engineering at Moscow Friendship University, Moscow, and Drexel University in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, USA.

Over the past twenty five years, he has been involved in several successful entrepreneurial ventures and is highly regarded for his business expertise in organizing and managing new business ventures worldwide.

Three of his earliest and most notable ventures are ADDAX PETROLEUM AND ORYX GROUP, GENEVA; BASIC RESOURCES LIMITED (BRS Ltd), and SCANCOM GHANA LIMITED (AREEBA-NOW MTN GHANA).
