During a session of the Public Accounts Committee where the Director-General of the NSA, Peter Twumasi, was present, Sam George raised questions regarding the purported GH₵ 70,000 payment.
Twumasi responded to these inquiries, but new evidence has emerged suggesting that Stonebwoy's payment exceeded the initially disclosed amount.
Sam George uncovered the discrepancy after closely examining Twumasi's statements during the committee session held on February 5, 2024. Additionally, he stated that information from a reliable source indicated that the reported GH₵ 70,000 payment by Stonebwoy was inaccurate.
