Principal of Tepa Health Assistant Training School in fraudulent deals

The
Principal of the Tepa Health Assistant Training School, Madam Victoria Amoah,
would sooner than later come before the Criminal Investigation Department of
the Ghana Police to explain under what circumstances she became a director of
IDEAS University College at Fiapre in Sunyani.
The CID on Friday stormed Sunyani in search Madam Amoah
but she escaped, compelling the CID to return to Accra and instructed her to
report to the CID headquarters in her own interest. She now has up to Friday,
October 28, 2011 to show up at the CID headquarters.
But the CID did not leave Sunyani totally disappointed
because they arrested one of the wanted characters, Rexy Lovell Mensah, who together
with Madam Amoah, have altered all documents on the ownership of IDEAS University
College from Madam Comfort Adampah into their names.
Madam Amoah now claims she was formerly called LYDIA
AMOAH but changed her name to VICTORIA AMOAH in April 2011.
Interestingly, one of the original directors of the
university is Lydia Amoah, who is the daughter of the proprietress of the
university.
The proprietress of the university introduced Madam
Victoria, a former lecturer at the Berekum Nursing Training College to Rexy
Lovell Mensah to examine the possibility of turning her IDEAS Hotel into a
nursing training college. But it was difficult to get accreditation because the
facilities available were not up to standard.
Madam Adampah suggested the establishment of the
university and subsequently gave monies to Rexy Lovell Mensah to begin the
process of acquiring accreditation.
Unknown to Madam Adampah, Rexy Lovell Mensah and Victoria
Amoah became lovers and teamed up to dupe the proprietress of the university.
The lovers and one Kofi Makai conspired and forged documents
to the effect that they are now the new directors of IDEAS University College.
Later Rexy Mensah rented an uncompleted building and
moved majority of the students to that uncompleted and alleged that Madam
Adampah had gone back to her hotel business.
He named his university ideas university south campus
when the national accreditation board had not given any approval
When students at his south campus asked him whether the
accreditation board had inspected the new campus, Rexy Lovel Mensah told them
that the board had told him that he could go ahead and run the university.
In a related development, Rexy Lovel Mensah as at about
6pm on Monday, October 24, 2011, was still in handcuffs at the police CID head
office because no one was ready to bail him.
One of his uncles who went to the CID office later went
away without signing the bail bond after realizing the enormity of the case.
His lawyer, Mr. Amponsah, could hardly find a solution to the situation as he
stood speechless.
It was not clear at the time of filing this report
whether Rexy Lovel Mensah would call his registrar, Appiah Kubi, his dean of
students, Frank Larbi or his senior lecturer, Nana Agyemang Gyan Gyau III, the
Berekum Atipimhene to rush over to Accra to sign the bail bond.
