The team of opposition politician, Sheik Mohamed Kamara alias ‘Jagaban‘ has issued a statement debunking allegations of illegally obtaining $2 million from the COVID-19 Relief Fund in the United States of America (USA).
They addressed the spread of information on social media about a certain Mohamed Kamara who reportedly confessed to misappropriating funds from the said relief program.
“We are writing to address a recent piece of information circulating on social media concerning the case of an individual named Mohamed Kamara allegedly admitting to fraudulently obtaining over $2 million in COVID-19 Relief Funds,” the statement read.
Further, they clarified that the aforementioned ‘Mohamed Kamara’ is not associated with their client, whom they described as a reputable businessman and benefactor.
“We want to make it explicitly clear that this case does not pertain to Sheik Alhaji Mohamed Omodu Kamara, widely known as Jagaban. Mr. Jagaban is a distinguished businessman, philanthropist, and dedicated political figure with an impeccable track record of integrity and community service. He is the CEO of a well-established and reputable business with several contracts with the state of Maryland,” they highlighted.
The release further stated some commentaries on the successes of Jagaban to society and his effort and commitment to better communities in the country referring to his donations to humanity with his own money.
“Jagaban’s contributions to society and his numerous philanthropic efforts are a testament to his unwavering commitment to the betterment of our community. His donations to humanitarian efforts are a product of his hard-earned money, a testament to his dedication to making a positive impact,” they expressed.
At the end, they called on people to refrain from sharing false information on social media and stated that Jagaban has never been involved in any fraudulent activity in the USA.
“It is crucial to clarify that Jagaban has never pleaded guilty in a United States court, nor has he ever been involved in any fraudulent activity. He resides in Maryland and is not affiliated with the case in New Jersey. We kindly request your understanding and cooperation in ensuring accurate information is disseminated. We appreciate your continued support for Jagaban’s endeavors and the positive impact he brings to our community,” the statement ended.
Apc there is no way to cover up this story. it is true and Jagaban is the one involved and there is no way you can twist this matter.
Foul white e white. Enti dem say na case. One thing ar know America even na president sef. If found wanting should go thru due process.
Let us wait and see the outcome on 10th October, when judgement would be passed. Then we will be able to know if it is Jagaban or not. I personally had a doubt when I first saw the news on social media, days ago. I might be wrong here but I was wondering how Jagaban was able to travel to Freetown after pleading guilty to such crime. I always say, it is wrong for people to rush to judgement. It is the fact that matters.
