John Dramani Mahama
Samuel Mahama, younger brother of former President John Mahama, has admitted being a key intermediary in Airbus's controversial sale of C-295 aircraft to Ghana.
In a recent interview with The Africa Report, Samuel revealed that John Mahama, as Vice President, actively supported the deal, attending meetings and helping overcome hurdles.
He also confirmed that Airbus bypassed compliance rules, citing his family ties as a reason for involving him.

The revelations raise fresh concerns about ethics in the handling of the transaction.
