Sir, I am Owula Mangortey, a whistle blower with a known face and address. From 2021, I have been based in Bawku monitoring observing and writing on Military, Security and intelligence deployments for counter-terrorism operations in border communities in the Upper East Region, as well as for the restoration of security and order in Bawku, Doba- Kandiga, Bolgatanga, and other flash points in the region
Sir, at 8.11 pm on 3rd November, 2024, I received a message from telephone number 0224354488, a WhatsApp number of Lt. Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey (rtd). When I checked the message, it was a suit filed by Lawyer Ace Ankomah, in which Lt. Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey is seeking ten (10) million cedis damages for defamation for what I wrote in an article in which I stated inter alia that Lt. Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey collected eight (8) million dollars from a telecommunication company on behalf of your soldiers.
Sir, I smiled because on 18th November, 2019, the DAILY GUIDE published a story in which Owula Mangortey was sued for defamation by a security expert and private investigator called Kwame Dankwah. The plaintiff was claiming one million cedis in damages. Sir, it is 5 years now and nobody has dared to drag me to court.
Sir, what the Daily Guide did not disclose was that the said plaintiff Kwame Dankwa was also known as Olatunde Derojaiye alias RANGER, an ex-convict who was parading himself at Burma Camp as a Military RANGER and was molesting your soldiers and supervising troops peace keeping rotations whilst hanging around the offices of the Provost Martial and Commanding Officer of the Military Police
Sir, I wrote an article for the attention of then CDS Lt. General Obed Boamah Akwa to flush out the scoundrel called RANGER; and the CDS duly acted to ban RANGER from the MHC general area in Burma Camp!!
Sir, I am a citizen and not a spectator. Nobody and nothing can intimidate me from speaking and writing the TRUTH. Not even that Gbevlo- Lartey’s side kick – the irascible hired assassin, the ex-convict and con man (telephone numbers +447787800076, +233541222007 ) who boldly flaunts vehicles, lots of dollars, pounds sterling, and naira, as payment for his hit jobs can stop me from speaking and writing the TRUTH.
Sir, as one of the grievances of Lt. Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey concerns money intended for your soldiers’ welfare, I am writing formally to request for a public inquiry at the Burma Hall in the full view of your soldiers and the media, into the circumstances under which eight (8) million dollars was received by Lt. Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey on behalf of your soldiers and the use to which it was put.
I WILL REVEAL OPENLY THE NAME OF THE TELECOMMUNICATION COMPANY, THE DATE AND NAME OF THE OFFICIAL WHO GAVE EIGHT (8) MILLION DOLLARS TO LT. COLONEL GBEVLO-LARTEY ON BEHALF OF YOUR SOLDIERS.
I want to see the balls Lt. Colonel Gbevlo-Lartey has to openly deny before your soldiers that he NEVER received eight (8) million dollars from a Telecommunication company on behalf of your soldiers.
I await, Sir.
I shall return
