The simmering dispute between Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Member of Parliament for North Tongu, and former New Patriotic Party (NPP) National Chairman Freddie Blay has escalated, with Ablakwa daring Blay to proceed to court over state capture allegations.
The controversy centres on Ablakwa’s claims that Blay’s son was involved in an attempt to unlawfully acquire land belonging to the state-owned Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra. At a press conference on 15 June 2024, Blay demanded an apology from Ablakwa, journalist Johnnie Hughes, and the management of Media General within seven days, threatening legal action if his demand was not met.
