Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Samuel Abu Jinapor has urged Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa to bring out any evidence in his possession to suggest that state lands are being sold. Speaking exclusively to TV3's Eric Mawuena Egbeta prior to the launch of the NPP's manifesto on Sunday, the Minister said it is duty-bound for Okudzeto Ablakwa as a public officer to bring out any evidence of wrongdoing and not wait to be dared before doing so. His comment comes after Okudzeto Ablakwa has threatened to publish names of persons involved in the capture of state lands after the Lands Minister held a press conference to debunk claims of capture of state lands. Ablakwa criticizes Lands Minister for not publishing full list of public lands and who acquired some of them
The Damongo MP noted that he would appreciate if Ablakwa provides his office with document to support his claim.
"Why should I dare him, I don't have to dare him. He is a Member of Parliament; he is a member of legislature of this country, he is a former Deputy Minister.
