Parliamentary hopeful for Adenta Constituency, Alfred Ababio Larbi Kumi also known as Adenta Kumi, has alleged that North Tongu Member of Parliament, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, owns mansions within and outside the country worth millions of dollars.
Adenta Kumi who sides with the New Patriotic Party (NPP) made the allegation on Metro TV’s Good Evening Ghana programme hosted by Paul Adom-Otchere.
He alleged that Ablakwa had two houses with a total worth of US$4.5 million. A US$3m house in Accra and a US$1.5m lake house in his constituency North Tongu.
“When people were building hotels, he was building houses everywhere. I have more than evidence. He owns a $3million house at Airport Hills. That is where he lives. He who calls for equity must come with clean hands.”
“What work has he done? He should come and tell us,” he added.
@theawalmohammed Adenta Kumi said Sammy Okudjeto Ablakwa having joined politics straight from school lives in a 3million dollar house in Accra and owns a 1.5 million dollar house by the lake at the village plus an over 100 k dollar house in the US.

Meanwhile, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has taken a swipe at detractors who he claims are fighting him over his dogged fight against state capture.
In a cryptic post on June 22, 2024, the lawmaker said unlike in the past when he was accused of owning fuel stations nationwide, now he is referred to as owner of mansions across the world.
“It seems that these days I no longer own fuel stations across the country; now they say I own mansions all over the world.
