Popular Ghanaian lawyer, Maurice Ampaw, has sparked controversy after sending a word of caution to renowned business mogul Richard Nii-Armah Quaye. In a viral video, the outspoken legal practitioner hinted that he knows how the millionaire made his money, stirring curiosity and speculation among Ghanaians.
The phrase “PHD” (Pull Him Down) is often used in Ghana to describe the tendency of people to criticize or undermine successful individuals. By referencing it, Ampaw’s comments have fueled debate about whether he is exposing a secret or simply adding to the culture of tearing down wealthy figures.
In the video, Ampaw did not hold back. While he stopped short of making direct accusations, his tone suggested that he had inside knowledge about Richard Nii-Armah Quaye’s financial success.
“I know how he made his money. Some people think they can just rise to riches and expect everyone to accept it without question. Ghana is watching,” he declared.
Although he did not provide evidence, his cryptic remarks have led to widespread speculation about what exactly he meant.
For those unfamiliar with the name, Richard Nii-Armah Quaye is one of Ghana’s fastest-rising entrepreneurs, known for his success in various business ventures, particularly in finance, investments, and technology. He is the founder and CEO of Quick Credit and Investment Micro-Credit Limited, a financial institution that has gained national recognition.
Many view him as a self-made business mogul, while others, like Ampaw, seem to suggest there is more to his wealth than meets the eye.
Public Reactions: Is This Just Another “Pull Him Down” Attempt?
Ampaw’s comments have triggered mixed reactions. While some believe he may be shedding light on hidden truths, others see it as an attempt to discredit a hardworking businessman.
A social media user wrote: “Why can’t Ghanaians celebrate success? If the man made his money legally, what’s the problem?”
Another countered: “We need transparency. If there’s something we don’t know, Maurice Ampaw should tell us everything.”
Many believe that successful individuals in Ghana often face unnecessary scrutiny, with people quick to assume that their wealth is questionable.
So far, Richard Nii-Armah Quaye has not responded to the allegations. However, sources close to him suggest that he remains unbothered by the claims, as he has always maintained that his business empire was built through hard work, smart investments, and dedication.
Given Maurice Ampaw’s history of making bold public statements, many are wondering whether he will provide evidence to back his claims or if this was just another attention-grabbing statement.
One thing is certain: Ghanaians will be watching closely to see how this drama unfolds. Will this be another case of “PHD” at work, or is there a bigger story behind Richard Nii-Armah Quaye’s rise to wealth? Only time will tell!
