PRESIDENT MAHAMA MUST DENY THE $200,000 DOLLARS SPENT EVERY MONTH ON PRO NDC JOURNALIST AND COMMUNICATORS.

The Greater Accra members of Nana Addo for President 2012(NAFOP), would like to call on President Mahama and the NDC to deny the shocking $200,000 dollars spent every month on pro NDC journalist and communicators. Apart from gaining notoriety for stealing state coffers to buy gargantuan houses in Ghana and abroad, they also have the alacrity to bribe journalist to do Government behest.
Information available to NAFOP, which was put out there on Ghanaweb by Mrs. Haleena Asana Kabore, a media watch research associates, corruption and stealing has become the order of the day at the Presidency.

The following personalities are said to be looting state coffers to the detriment of the suffering Ghanaian who cannot afford a two square meal a day.
NEWSPAPERS

1.The Daily Post-20,000 dollars a month
2.The Informer-15,000 dollars a month
3.The Enquirer-30,000 dollars a month
4.The Catalyst-12,000 dollars a month
5.The Insight-20,000 dollars a month plus 3 Isuzu Pick ups from the Tema Port.
6. The Daily Dispatch-15,000 dollars. This allocation had an asterix indicating that it was issued and authorized by Deputy National Security Co-coordinator Mr. Kosivi Degbor.
7. The Ghanaian Lens-20,000 Dollars a month.

In addition to the above, the following media personalities received monthly allowances and logistics.
Mr. Allotey Jacobs-12,000 Dollars paid monthly plus free daily petrol coupons Mr. Raymond Archer-One Ford Explorer vehicle, 1 Jaguar X 5 cleared from Tema Harbour allocated plus 18,000 dollars a month
Mr. Michael Dokosi-18,000 Dollars plus 1 Toyota Avensis saloon.
Mr. Kwesi Pratt-15,000 US Dollars a month plus free daily petrol coupons for 2 years till October, 2012
Ben Ephson-15,000 US dollars paid monthly plus free daily petrol coupons for 2 years.

Mr. Kobby Fiagbe-15,000 US Dollars a month

Mr. Kojo Twum Boafo-20,000 US Dollars a month

The following government officials apart from their salaries also receive extra special allowances for media work done for the government.

1. Dr Tony Aidoo-20,000 dollars a month

2. Mr. James Agyenim Boateng, -25,000 dollars a month

3. Mr. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa- -30,000 dollars a month

4. Mr.Stanislav Dogbe- 20,000 Dollars a month

We cannot tell at the moment, how many journalists have been added to the list. Since President Mahama has engaged in profligacy in selling himself using the media. These same people have debunked Nana Addo’s policy on free education. By calculation, the total amount of $200,000/month if multiplied by 4rs of NDC reign would result in GH¢19.2Million which is almost 25% of the amount which would be spent on free SHS beginning 2013/2014 academic year. This is how wicked and malicious the NDC have become. Social democrats indeed!
According to the information the documents containing the details were obtained from the Office of the President. This was picked from a tray on the desk of Mr. Henry Martey Newman, Chief of Staff, on the 12th of January, 2011 at 11.40am. The document was copied to Mr. Alex Segbefia, Deputy Chief of Staff and Dr Kwabena Duffour, Minister for Finance and Mr. Fiifi Kwetey, Deputy Minister for Finance.
By this statement, we are calling on President Mahama to use his few days in office to deny this revelation and conduct an immediate investigation into the matter. Finally, we are calling on all Ghanaians to reject the NDC come 2012 because; the looting of state resources is appalling and would retard development in our dear nation.
Thank you.
