Samuel Inkoom has responded to allegations of being sought after by law enforcement. Numerous Ghanaian blogs have shared information from social media suggesting that the ex-defender has been accused of involvement in fraudulent activities.
Upon hearing the news, the player promptly surrendered himself to the authorities to seek clarification.
However, he was informed by the police that the flyer circulating on social media did not originate from their organization.
Consequently, the player decided to involve his legal team to take appropriate measures against the individuals responsible for spreading false information.
Additionally, he mentioned that he owns a Travel and Tour company, leading him to initially suspect that some of his clients may have misrepresented certain facts to the police, prompting his visit to the authorities.
