The woman, Monica Wei, said she has suffered negative backlash since Kweku Baako mentioned one Monica in connection with the galamsey menace on May 6 on Joy FM’s news analysis programme Newsfile.
It will be recalled that Kweku Baako revealed Asia Huang as the powerful Chinese woman behind illegal mining in Ghana and that she has sex videos of powerful men in the security services as well as decision makers.
According to him, Asia Huang has accomplices including one Monica.
"…She's got accomplices – the other one is called Monica, the other the name has slipped me because it's a Chinese name. Part of their strength is that they built up a certain system of blackmailing. They are women so I'm not going to use certain words, I'm not going to say certain things,” he said.
However, lawyers of Ms Wei in the letter said she is the only Chinese woman in Ghana by name Monica.
Reacting to the letter on Newsfile Saturday, Mr Baako said he was “intrigued that she is the only Chinese Monica in Ghana, I'm surprised.""If I knew the full name, I might have said it," he said, adding: "You recall that there was a third name I had forgotten, I didn't mention so Madam Monica Wei, if it's not you, why bother? When the evidence comes out, at the appropriate time, when the evidence of those people engaged in illegal mining – the Chinese - … and the Monica is featured, we would know, so, I’m surprised that any lawyer anywhere will write such a letter to me…," he said."They are on a fishing expedition." "If I were them, I will relax. They should relax. Tell them to exercise patience. … I don’t even know her."
