The Ford Expedition car which was given to ex President John Mahama as a gift by a Burkinabe Contractor cannot be found among the pool of vehicles at the Flagstaff House, Henry Nana Boakye, Deputy Executive Director of the National Service Scheme has claimed.

According to him, officials at the seat of government have searched every where for the  alleged “bribe car”  but its whereabout remains unknown.

The Mahama administration in June 2016 explained that the car which generated huge controversy resulting in a probe by the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has been placed in the vehicle pool at the Presidency as per established convention.

Director of Communications at the Presidency, Eugene Arhin, has revealed there are 208 cars missing from the Flagstaff House pool of vehicles.

The revelations come shortly after government set up a task-force to retrieve state assets unlawfully being held by individuals.

Commenting on the matter on Peace FM Friday, Henry Nana Boakye aka Nana B, a member of the Communication team of the ruling NPP, said his checks indicate that a total of 173 servicable vehicles and 45 unservicable vehicles are parked at the Flagstaff House which is minus the controversial Ford Expedition car.

“Even the Ford Expedition car which President Mahama said he donated to the state cannot be found, contrary to what the previous govrnment told Ghanaians.

Somebody must tell us where that particular car is, if it was indeed donated to the state then it must be found and be part of the list of vehicles documented.”
