What constitute a crime in your criminal mindset within your fraternity of wickedness?

Those who parked the ambulances and left both the vehicles and their upgraded accessories to rot or the man who was instructed by his Boss to issue CN notes?

Dumb cretin government, thieves who only have destructive and greedy offsprings ready to steal e every good thing in Ghana.

Ofui.

Between 1982 and 2000, NDC AGs and lawyers knew the judges bcz they appointed them. Yet, certificateless lawyer Akufo-Addo wiped the floor with NDC lawyers at the Supreme and High Courts. Do you care to explain that?

@TAKE OR PAY DEMON, it will be good for you to tell us why the Amulances in this Case never worked, I doubt if you can at best you will come and throw some political dust into our eyes to justify what the NPP government and our Judges are perpetuating.The simple truth is that the Ambulances have never worked, about 30 of them are still parked at I believe the Airforce Base. The question is why, again simple, someone or some people in this NPP government have refused to allow them to work.From what has transpired so far at the Court sittings, we now know that the buses were bought and shipped to Ghana without the medical fitting that would render then usable because vehicle manufacturers do not do that work, so this fittings were brought in and are lying at the Tema Ports waiting to be cleared for another team of experts to come and fix and instead of the NPP government doing the needful simply did not mind a hoot, left them as they came and are now trying to prosecute those under whose regime (NDC) that the buses were imported; meanwhile the NPP has gone ahead to buy other Ambulances since 2017.So who has caused financial loss to the State, NPP of course. Useless and wicked people.

I support this argument because the facts are not being told to the Ghanaian populace. Ssglemi houses are left I the Bush and the government is chasing people for causing financial loss to the state. What is the meaning of always throwing dust in the eyes of Ghanaians in the name of causing financial loss? The facts remained unclear and the accusers are the real culprits.

Massa the former health minister under Mahama stated in the floor of parliament that the so called ambulances were not fit for purpose!! Stop defending the indefensible, haba. The vehicles were parked during Mahama’s time and not this government’s. What’s all this nonsense of shamelessness? That the vehicles were not fit for purpose is not in doubt and that’s not the reason Ato Forson is in court, he is in court because he allegedly fraudulently issued the LC…that’s the crux of the matter…all these press conferences about the AG meeting the third accuse etc have no bearing in the substance of the matter. Jakpa has not denied that his uncle invited the AG to his uncle’s house, he has not denied that he Jakpa was not invited to the said meeting. Now he turns up uninvited, secretly records the meeting and plays an edited part of it to the public. He did same with the wattsapp messages he tended in court as evidence. Now under cross examination he admits he didn’t provide the court will all the messages, in effect deceiving the court. Did he think the AG wouldn’t have the full messages on his phone/computer? How dumb can he be? Now if he is proven to be dishonest, why won’t he be found guilty? Follow the substance of the case and the proceedings and not the public shouting cum press conferences…it’s about law and not antics!! For your information, plea bargaining is legal!! The key word there is bargaining…so small fry in a case gives evidence against the big fry in exchange for a lesser sentence…Jakpa wants to be exonerated and the AG won’t play ball and hence all his antics…follow the proceedings and not the press conferences!!

@Ghanabi Kofi, Ato is not in any trouble just read what one of the commentators earlier wrote (Evans) to me it makes so much sense and I remember Jakpa said something in Court to the effect that a Minister told he Jakpa that the NPP deliberately did not want the Ambulances to be serviceable so they can also award contracts to themselves to buy Ambulances. NPP criminals God will punish you all.

Why should religious or traditional chiefs intervene in massive national stealing? Are they lawyers? You don't make sense ok. It is duplication of leadership effort which we don't need at all. Never ever.

It was Ato Forson that authored and signed the LC at the blind side of Tekper. Now Tekper is trying to protect Ato Forson because they want power. Tekper claimed in court that he authorised Ato Forson to issue the LC but when he was asked to produce the Memo that authorised Ato Forson to issue the memo, he couldn't. Have you wondered why the ambulances they brought never worked even during the Mahama regime.

Maybe during the investigation Ato did not mention it was Seth Terkpeh who authorized him because if he said so the A.G.would have add Terkpeh to the case and if he didn't how could the investigators invite him for questions

Now I am understanding why the forum is flooded with pedestrian commentators.

Ofui, who told you the lies that you just chunks out for public consumptions?

Ofui, go and read the ex finance minister's Seth Tekper's witness statements and tell us about it.

Seth Tekper told the court that he was the one who authorised Ato to clear the issue with the Credit notes , even that was not honoured until the then Minister of health, got involved.

Ato's only crime in this non existing business of crime,is for following
orders from his then boss.

But not only that, the real issue here is Ato has been a torn of the flesh of this incompetent government bizarre borrowing and wasteful antics towards the good people of Ghana.

Ato told Ghanaians there are to be hair cuts,a whole pepsodent came out and debunked Ato's warnings.

Yet these liars are screaming for continuity of their lies,thievery and wickedness.

Just take a walk to the Pwalugu dam project alone and tell us the whereabouts of the over 11 millions plus of hard US dollars,remmber Bawumia
promised Ghanaians that dam will be completed by 2021 latest, today go and take a walk overall and tell us your findings, and these are the crooks and gaslighting twerps governing Ghana now.

Say Cheese.
