Ursula Owusu confirmed this morning on Kokrokoo that allowances are given. So who is shaving the truth?

"Mr Balado Manu who was a Member of Parliament for 16 years, noted that it is not possible for sitting allowances to be paid when committees have not finished their work."

That's why it is a bribe. The former MP has refused to end up his base less argument.
That be the case based upon his experience and that of Ayariga, that is why Ayariga & CO returned the money and describe the incident as an attempt to bribe them. This is simple logic and thinking outside the box.

If they did not intend to keep it, why did they kept it for at least three days if they really received the said amount?

They only brought it back because some people outside the NDC minority got to know about it and they feared it was going to become a public knowledge that is why they beat a retreat and sent it back to Muntaka if we have to believe Mahama Ayariga.

The question we need to ask is this; Is it the way Parliamentary allowances are paid, I mean by cash in an envelope without anybody signing for it? Is it not supposed to be by check or direct deposit into their accounts?

If these people really received the money, they knew it was a bribe and should not have taken it home for at least a day or two before returning it.

If they wanted to keep an evidence, they should ave at least have a documented evidence from Muntaka when they returned it.

If no sitting allowances are paid why was the money given? Ballado, ask yourself. What is the reason behind the giving of the stuffed envelopes to the members of the committee? Ballado, you have got it all wrong. Come again.
