According to him, EOCO has all the evidence therefore government should come out with details on how the money was disbursed. The businessman has since maintained that he is innocent in the matter and has tried unsuccessfully to seek redress at different courts. In 2019, The Supreme Court ordered the sale of properties discovered by the state to belong to the embattled businessman to defray a GH¢51.2 million judgement debt paid him which the country’s apex court has ruled must be refunded. According to the court, a claim by the now-defunct UT Bank that Mr Woyome used two of his houses at Trassaco as collateral for a loan could not be proven.
