Private Legal Practitioner Samuel M. Codjoe of Law Trust is at the center of a brewing financial scandal.
The controversy stems from the disappearance of a USD $400,000 loan repayment made by debtor Ebenezer Denzel Amanor in 2013, a transaction that has allegedly vanished from Dalex Finance’s accounts a transaction Dalex Finance has also denied receiving.
The missing funds have left Amanor in a prolonged battle for accountability, raising questions about corporate integrity and potential financial misconduct.
Acknowledgment of the payment was documented through a CAL Bank cheque paid by the debtor’s solicitors Obeng Sakyi and Sogbodjor.
Subsequently, the accounts of the solicitors Obeng Sakyi and Sogbodjor was cleared and debited $400,000 under the name of Dalex Finance. So, the million dollar question is, where did Samuel Codjoe cash the cheque? Samuel Codjoe received the CAL Bank Cheque written under the name of Dalex Finance, endorsed and received it so where did the money go??
The cheque bore a handwritten notice of receipt, accompanied by Samuel M. Codjoe’s legal firm’s stamp and embossment, signaling its clearance.
Lawyer Samuel M. Codjoe issued a handwritten receipt to Obeng Sakyi and Sobodjor and Dalex Finance claims not to have recorded any of such payment; so the question remains unanswered as to where the money went or to who’s pocket did it end up? Samuel Codjoe or Kenneth Thompson, CEO of Dalex?

The case has sparked allegations of a scandal and unprofessional conduct as a top lawyer of his calibre.
Ebenezer Denzel Amanor contends that despite proof of payment, the Payment meant for his clients never got to them, though cheque cleared and Samuel Codjoe’s clients are refusing to produce their bank statement.
According to Amanor, the institutions have displayed a “high level of mistrust and suspicion,” failing to provide transparency about the missing funds.
“This is not just a case of negligence; How can a $400,000 cheque cleared in 2013 simply vanish? There’s no explanation, no accountability,” Amanor stated during an interview.
Samuel M. Codjoe, whose stamp and signature authenticated the cheque, has denied receiving any funds of that sort and further any involvement in the disappearance of the funds.
Financial analysts have highlighted this incident as a potential symptom of deeper systemic flaws within the organization’s financial controls and ethical practices.
Ebenezer Amanor, for his part, is prepared to pursue legal action to uncover the truth.
“I will not stop until justice is served. This is about accountability, not just for me but for everyone who relies on financial institutions to handle their money with integrity,” he declared.
As the case gains traction, all eyes are on Samuel M. Codjoe to provide answers.
The stakes are high, with potential ramifications that could extend beyond this individual case to affect public confidence in the financial sector.
This developing story highlights the urgent need for transparency and accountability in financial transactions, particularly when such large sums of money are involved.
Stay tuned as we continue to investigate and uncover the truth behind the missing $400,000.
