The Paramount Chief of Lower Axim Traditional Council, Awulae Attibrukusu III, has finally spoken on the Catherine Afeku-Kundum cash donation saga by disowning and denying knowledge of receiving or bearing witness to the GH¢200,000 expenditure as stated by former Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Catherine Afeku for the 2018 Axim Kundum festival.

According to the President of the Axim Traditional Council, he was not aware of the said amount quoted in the Auditor General’s report, which cited the money as expended on the Kundum festival from 1-9 September, 2018.

The former Tourism Minister and former Member of Parliament (MP)  for Evalue Ajomoro Gwira Constituency had disclosed on Accra-based Citi FM that Awulae Attibrukusu III was aware of the money expended on musicians.

He urged the public to refrain from aligning his throne with the scandal.

These were contained in a statement released by Awulae Attibrukusu III.
