There’s been a new twist surrounding the recent demolition of ten houses in the East Legon area in the Greater Accra Region with fresh revelations in court linking the family of Ghana’s Second Lady, Samira Bawumia, directly to the unwarranted incident.
Property owner George Oti Bonsu has filed a contempt case against Hajia Aisha Ahmed, mother of the Second Lady, and her attorney-Charles Edem Adogodo, following the demolition of his property.
There had been constant public denials from Samira Bawumia’s family regarding any involvement in the demolition.
However, during a contempt hearing on October 26, 2024, Defense Attorney Kofi Abotsi confirmed that Hajia Aisha Ahmed, one of the respondents in the case, is indeed the mother of the Second Lady.
This disclosure reveals the Second Lady’s family role in the dispute, casting doubt on prior statements distancing the Bawumia family from the incident.
Information gathered by Plan B News revealed that Lawyer Elikplim Agbamava, representing Mr. Oti Bonsu, raised concerns over Hajia Aisha Ahmed’s continuous absence from court hearing.
Responding to this, her lawyer, Ernest Kofi Abotsi, explained that due to her position as the wife of Ghana’s Ambassador to the UAE Ahaji Ahmed Ramadan, she is often out of the country and thus unable to attend court sessions.

This open-court disclosure has attracted public attention, as it involves high-profile individuals within the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).
