“..The time you payed your rent was timely, I got about 12 messages from the Assembly to pay Property rate, I went to the Assembly to pay property rate and I was told to go to GRA, I said I have been paying property rate to GRA, why do you send me messages on my Assembly, My Assembly , that is why I have come to you, because I go to pay annually at GRA and if I’m not going it’s because I don’t have the money yet and you were sending me messages and I have asked you what is it that I should pay and you told me to go to GRA and pay .
“Ask GRA whether i don’t pay”.
