Fundraising for late Captain Mahama not a scam

The family of the late Captain Mahama, has stated that the ‘GoFund Project’initiated by Modesta Aduweje Alobawone is not a scam. The ‘GoFund Project’ is a fundraising activity that seeks to solicit support for the late Captain’s family.

The spokesperson for the family, Zacharia Sakara Ahmed, speaking to some journalists at the  Arakan Senior Officers Mess at Burma Camp on Saturday, stated that after the family had conducted a thorough investigation about the credibility of the woman, it became evident that Modesta was a respectable woman living in the USA who had a genuine desire for supporting the family.

He further added that her father, Col. A. Alobawone, is currently the Director of Communications of the Ghana Armed Forces and also a native of Paga in the Upper East Region. ‘We are deeply sorry about the development and wish her well as she goes on to solicit the needed financial support on behalf of the deceased’s family,’ he stated.

Speaking on the approved institutions and individuals to solicit funding for the family, he mentioned GoFund of Modesta and Capital Bank (Spintex branch). He also advised that others who have collected funds on behalf of the family should re-channel the monies to the approved institutions.
