Mr MP,
Limit your promises to your constituents and you’ll be fine. What you are mandated to do is to make laws so let the constituents know the truth. Also, let them know it’s the district assemblies that are responsible for development. Entreat your constituents/party followers to work hard to take care of their kids and themselves while government also plays its part. They should also take advantage of government initiatives to cushion them. Thank you.

You call a monitoring fund of 43% of the entire project fund inadequate! Where is this ever done! You're sick. This money is just a gift to MPs. 90% of the entire amount will find it's way into MPs pockets.

Infact, it 75% of the project cost for monitoring. It is unacceptable.

We all know it is too small but if I were you l will not come out to say this if you know Ghanaians very well. I always tell people that SATAN IS NOT IN A SHRINE AND GOD IS NEVER IN A CHURCH BUILDING BUT HUMAN BEING ARE THE SATAN AND THE SAME TIME GOD SOME TIMES SO KNOW HOW TO TALK AS AN MP. PEOPLE FROM KUMASI WILL NOT AGREE WITH YOU FOR MAKING THIS STATEMENT EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE NOT FROM KUMASI OR AN MP OF KUMASI BUT WILL TAKE IT DIFFERENT BECAUSE OF THEIR TRIBAL AND POLITICAL BACKGROUND. THEY ARE THE DESTROYERS FOR THEIR TRIBAL WAYS OF MAKING JUDGEMENT SO I BEG YOU TO KNOW HOW TO TALK AS A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PEOPLE OF YOUR CONSTITUENCY.

In all sincerity, this budgetary allocation is just inappropriate especially the fact that there's another component allocated to the MPs for education. By this, is the government underplaying the importance of efficiency of staff of the decentralized agencies of the District Assemblies?

We have the DCE, DCD, DoE, Planning Officers, etc. What kind of monitoring will the MP be doing more effective than these?

The coffers are almost empty. We should manage the little left prudently. Why was there no opposition to this on the floor of Parliament?

Waste of cash. Why not give it to your MMDCEs who are on the ground to monitor. After all, aren't they the ones you will work with from Accra? You guys just want money to chop.

This is politically motivated allocation, frivolous and very egoistic in nature. It is a misplaced priority that will end up in wasteful spending and poor accountability, in fact, it is an inefficient budget allocation. In all, a total amount of about ¢996,000 from the DACF (District Assembly Common Fund) and GETFUND will be allocated to each MP this financial year for some supposed MPs projects and GETFUND projects Monitoring. This brings the MPs allocations up to ¢274,896,000 (276 MPs @ ¢996,000/MP), for this financial year. This amount, of ¢274,896,000, can build new school buildings and equip them with modern facilities, to accommodate about 50 or more Basic Schools under trees across the country.

Again, parliament must stop the financial piggybacking on the executive and assert its independence. It must also be seen to be more accountable, as they demand accountability from the executive, by making its own budgetary provisions for project monitoring, if it deems that as necessary. It must however ensure that there are no duplications of roles and functions, with that of the executive, to avoid waste. In any case, I doubt whether the individual MPs have the capacity to engage in any meaningful project monitoring, hence, wasteful spending and missed opportunities are bound to happen.

Looks like the people of Binduri never and would never get an serious person as an MP.
The former was in parliament always sounding proverbial in all his ways...now look at this one too.

But you chop the money; it's never used for projects in their constituencies. The funds always goes into the MPS' private pockets.

The government must set up a regulatory body to oversee the projects being carried on in every constituency by MPs with the project funds to make sure that these funds are being used properly for the people. There should be an accountability for the funds .
There are some constituencies that have nothing to prove that their MPs have done anything for them with the funds while the MPs live luxurious and opulent lifestyles .

Total amount allocated is GHS 41,400,000 for the 276 MPs. This is just a waste of taxpayer money. The MPs should be made to account for how the money is spent.

Shame on you, Mr. Binduri. It is outrageous that such money is given to MPs for, supposedly, to help their constituents. This is because, these corrupt and incompetent MPs use the money for themselves. That is the truth, and you are still clamoring for more? What is wrong with us? MPs should ask themselves what kinds of laws they have passes that have impacted the lives of the average Ghanaian. Shame on all of them. The police, the judges, government officials and MPs are all corrupt and shameless. What kind of society are we living in?

This MP paa what is he saying koraa? In which part of the constitution gives power to MPs to use public funds to cater for school fees, hospital bills, donations at funerals etc? What kind of projects do they monitor in the first place? So an MP is given GH 150,000.00 to monitor a 3 classroom block under construction in his/her constituency for what ? I think they use it to settle loans they contracted during campaign period and intentionally tagged it as monitoring fund and nothing else.
