MONROVIA – Eric W. Wowoh has strongly rejected allegations of misappropriating funds and unlawfully selling property associated with the Acquah family, maintaining that the claims should be assessed based on verifiable evidence and resolved through the appropriate judicial process.
In a formal response to the allegations, Wowoh denied wrongdoing and challenged claims concerning the property’s purchase payments, ownership documentation, and subsequent sale. He emphasized that the filing of criminal charges does not establish guilt and that he is prepared to present relevant records to the court in support of his position.
“I deny the allegations that I misappropriated money or sold property belonging to the Acquahs. These claims must be evaluated against the evidence presented in court, where I intend to respond fully,” Wowoh stated.
Wowoh explained that the agreed purchase price for the property was US$30,500, which, according to his records and personal knowledge, he did not receive in full. He also disputed the reported payment total of US$18,741, noting that he had not seen a complete accounting to substantiate that figure.
He called for a detailed reconciliation of all payments allegedly made toward the property, including the dates, amounts, recipients, and stated purposes of individual transactions. He further maintained that payments made to organizations or for separate projects should be distinguished from payments made directly toward the property.
According to Wowoh, discussions regarding a possible new sale agreement took place, but no new agreement was executed. He said he subsequently informed the Acquahs that he would not proceed with the sale and later sold the property to another buyer. He maintained that he did not sign a deed conveying ownership of the property to the Acquahs.
Addressing questions surrounding the property documents, Wowoh stated that the warranty deed provided to the Acquahs was unsigned and undated by him. He further explained that Mrs. Acquah had informed him that the original property documents were missing in the United States, although he did not personally witness their loss.
Wowoh said he subsequently used available copies and his identification to obtain replacement property records based on the information available to him at the time. He maintained that he had not received the original documents and was prepared to provide available deed copies, replacement records, identification documents, communications, and other relevant materials to assist in establishing the sequence of events.
“I am prepared to provide the records in my possession, including receipts, bank or transfer records, written communications, property documents, and other relevant materials that can help clarify the transactions and the circumstances surrounding this dispute,” he said.
Wowoh also confirmed that he and his lawyer appeared at the Monrovia City Court at 9:00 a.m., as directed. He stated that Mrs. Acquah’s legal team was not present when they appeared, based on his observation at the time, but declined to draw any conclusions from their absence, emphasizing that the court would determine the next steps in the matter.
He reiterated his willingness to address the dispute through the appropriate legal channels, including providing records of payments received and addressing the return of amounts that can be verified as having been paid toward the property. However, he maintained that a proper accounting is necessary to establish the amounts involved and the purposes for which the payments were made.
Wowoh called on media institutions, journalists, and members of the public to exercise responsibility in reporting the matter, urging them to distinguish between allegations, disputed claims, personal observations, documentary evidence, and facts established through judicial proceedings.
He cautioned against presenting unverified information or statements attributed to third parties as facts personally confirmed by him, stressing that the matter should be determined by the evidence and applicable law rather than public speculation.
Wowoh further reaffirmed his commitment to protecting his reputation and that of Change Agent Network while allowing the judicial process to proceed. He maintained that he would continue to cooperate through the appropriate legal channels and provide the available documentation necessary to clarify his position.
