“In two weeks, can you show the property?” – Adom-Otchere challenges Martin Kpebu

News“In two weeks, can you show the property?” - Adom-Otchere challenges Martin Kpebu

Paul Adom-Otchere, the former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), has challenged private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu to provide evidence of the landed properties he owns in Accra.

It will be recalled that Martin Kpebu cast doubt on Adom-Otchere’s declarations, claiming he did not have a landed property to meet the OSP bail conditions when he was detained.

According to Martin Kpebu, sources have informed him that the broadcaster owns several properties in Accra.

Speaking on Joy FM on Friday, August 1, 2025, Martin Kepbu stated, “Paul telling OSP that he has no property is false… Not one, not two. There are people who are buzzing my phone, telling me they will take me to show the properties that Paul paid them money to build”.

However, Paul Adom-Otchere on Channel One TV challenged Lawyer Kpebu to provide evidence to substantiate his claims.

According to the broadcaster, he feels disappointed in Martin Kpebu, whom he described as a big lawyer.

Speaking on Channel One TV, Adom-Otchere lamented, “The issue of no landed property has been discussed in a way that I feel disappointed by a big lawyer who said he knows that I have four properties in Accra and that he is going to show them. He said it on a media platform, and I sent him a text, Please, in two weeks, can you show the property?”

He said I have landed properties. I know Paul Adom-Otchere has given money to somebody, some of these wild allegations they throw about. I keep asking if a person lives in a house for 20 years and says, I don’t have landed property, why is that awkward? The house address is available, the Lands Commission is available, everyone can check,” he added.

Adom Otchere added, “I even look at it as a bit chauvinistic… If a man and a woman live together and have a house, it is believed that it belongs to the man. But people act differently”.

“I have no landed property in my name, and that is easily verifiable,” he reaffirmed.

Meanwhile, Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, justified the bail conditions set for Paul Adom-Otchere.

He revealed that the landed bail condition was set to encourage the suspect to show up and not run.

Kissi Agyebeng added that if the suspect claims he does not have any landed property, any property found in his name can be confiscated by the State.

Speaking during a meeting,  Kissi Agyebeng stated, “The OSP has a suspect, and you say you do not have any landed property, which means you can bail yourself out if you do not have any landed property.

We will fix a value on it, and bring what you have, and it is also to encourage you not to run because if you run away, that property will be confiscated. So, it is to encourage you to show up”.

He added, “If you do not do that and you say, you do not have anything, you have placed yourself in a state where anything the State finds in your name is confiscated”.

Backgroud

The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) ordered Paul Adom-Otchere to present himself for questioning in a revenue assurance audit deal.

Adom-Octhere was later detained after he failed to meet the OSP bail conditions of providing two landed properties.

The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) later announced that they have accepted the revised bail conditions proposed by Paul Adom Otchere’s legal team.

Adom-Otchere later returned home to his family after Jospong Group of Companies acted as surety, meeting the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) revised bail conditions.
