“To the mischief makers, the
people who, without a shred of truth, come and start pushing out all sorts of
lies and rumours and build up stories to distract people from legitimate

life, start doing something more useful. But I am well,” he said.

Obetsebi was however not enthused
about why “people go out of their way to manufacture idiotic stories when there

Obetsebi has however been less
involved in Ghana’s politics in the last few months. We are glad he is alive.
