Investigative Journalist, Manasseh Azure Awuni has discounted claims he demanded cash from Menzgold prior to a publication of the truth about its purported affiliation with Swiss Gold Global, a Switzerland-based gold company.
The international Gold Firm in a response to an email from the journalist stated categorically that it had no affiliation with Menzgold Ghana and went ahead to issue a disclaimer to that effect.
It follows an advertisement on Menzgold website claiming it has an affiliation with the Swiss-based company.
“By our affiliation to Swiss gold global in Switzerland; sharing in the objectives of turning the fortunes of groups and individuals around by ensuring absolute financial freedom for people, has inspired or drive us to attain the unprecedented height and records we’ve set in Africa,” the website of Menzgold, www.menzgold.com read.
But upon enquiries, the international Company in an email to Manasseh Azure Awuni said:” “Please note that Swiss Gold Global and its associated companies have no association with Menzbanc regarding any of their investments,” the email from the Swiss company said.
“Swiss Gold Global said Menzgold has neither purchased any precious metal from any of its affiliated companies nor has it served as a safe house for its metals”
There were however moves to suggest that the journalist demanded money from the company to spike the story but in a sharp rebuttal to claim he posted on his facebook page” Ignore the malicious lies being circulated after I published the Menzgold story. I have never been to the office of Menzgold. I have never seen or met any of the officials of Menzgold, whether in or outside their office.
After I received the reply from Swiss Gold Global stating that the company had no affiliation with Menzgold, I called an official of Menzgold, who also confirmed the email from Swiss Gold Global and said the information about the affiliation was still on the site because of an IT problem. He promised Menzgold would take it from the company’s website, which it has done. Beyond this, I have not engaged any official of Menzgold. Ignore the lies”
