Former NPP 3rd Vice Chairman Alleges Seizure of His Personal Lexus Car.
Former Third Vice Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Chairman Omari Wadie, has alleged that a group of men accompanied by four police officers seized his Lexus vehicle under claims that it was a government car. The incident, which occurred while the vehicle was at a mechanic shop for servicing, has left the politician seeking legal redress to reclaim his property.
Speaking in an interview on Neat FM’s Torch Light, hosted by Mac Jerry Osei Agyeman, and monitored by mrwoode.com, Chairman Omari Wadie firmly stated that the car is his personal property, which he purchased from Dubai. He categorically denied any allegations suggesting that the vehicle belongs to the government. According to him, during his time in office under the NPP administration, he did not benefit from any government-owned property.
He explained that his only appointment during the NPP administration was as a member of the Ghana Post Board. He clarified that he received only a modest allowance, which was given four times a year during board meetings. “I didn’t enjoy any government property or privileges during my tenure,” he emphasized.
Chairman Omari Wadie revealed that prior to the car’s seizure, some individuals had visited his residence to take pictures. Shortly afterward, the Lexus was taken from the mechanic shop, and he was informed that it had been sent to Blue Gate, the headquarters of the National Investigation Bureau (NIB).
In his efforts to recover the vehicle, he managed to contact one of the individuals involved in the seizure. However, he claims the person threatened him during their conversation. Disturbed by the situation, Chairman Omari Wadie has decided to consult his lawyers and pursue a legal route to retrieve his car.
The former NPP executive has expressed his disappointment over the incident, stating that he is determined to resolve the matter legally to protect his rights. He urged authorities to investigate the case and ensure that justice is served.
Chairman Omari Wadie’s story has sparked public discussions about the alleged misuse of power and the implications of wrongful seizures of personal property. The case also raises questions about the procedures used in identifying government-owned vehicles and the rights of private citizens.
