Mr. Government, I am not going to pay tax anymore. How can my taxes go into someone 's pocket and at the end be made to go scotfree.

This is thievery. You know the employee is dead but you still expect a letter from the family. But how did you know he/she was dead? by text message or word of mouth. this man should be arrested.

The problem this Dr. has is even bigger than what he said about waiting for the family to report the death of the dead man!

The man has not reported to work for 2 years and he man whether dead or alive still receives salary? So how many more are not working but being paid by the tax payer? This Dr. must be thrown in jail for many years! He is corrupt than the word corrupt can describe him. Waooo, I am astounded by such callousness, explaining away of what happened.

My friend,don't you know that Lands Commission is one of the most corrupt institutions in Ghana?
They know about the death as the statement suggests but they are waiting up until the family informs them knowing that they did not employ the family but the individual who they knew died so even if it takes ten years the family will still receive the salary with the help of the officials in that entity who are also beneficiaries of the looting.
You don't just go to the bank to take your salary if the account is not yours so how is the family receiving the money,who is preparing the pay voucher begore the Accountant General Department is making the payment if that Odame guy knows what is going on in his department,is he trying to throw dust on our faces,why the Public Accounts Committee cannot put immediate stop to the payment and order the refund of the money in addition to investigation to find out how that money is able to be withdrawn if it is being withdrawn?
