    Huh,so the condoms were allegedly from Nairobi,Kenya ? This surely sounds like some cooked story typical of NDC spinmeisters.Just like they tried "manufactured evidence"in that frivolous petition.

  • George 10 years ago

    My brother, can't you that the donors want to disgrace Ghana using imperialists tactics? It is not a party matter at all. Please read in between the lines and let us kick this issue out.

  • Ben 10 years ago

    We are talking about rot and canker in the way govt procure things and all you care about is being exposed by the use of imperialist tactics? Next time use your own money and deal with the rot!

  • Arvis 10 years ago

    Are you out of your mind ? Why should any donor accept the corrupt methods in Ghana. It is time to shape up and start being honest and not blame your failures on the West all the time.

  • Kponyo 10 years ago

    Much as it is very possible that there is some corruption in this matter, we must open our eyes to the fact that these former slave raiders and colonialists do actually entice African officials with corruption only so that th ...

    As soon as I heard the NDC Government saying that Condom prices would be up, I knew something fishy was coming. The announcement of rise in prices of condoms by this Mahama government shocked everyone: How could they raise ...

    All what I have to say is that Ghanaians should: 1. In their numbers protest the corrupted leaders system and to start to learn how to vote for no confidence in corrupted regimes. 2. There should be daily demonstrations natio ...

    Whether the funds were from a foreign donor or the govt of Ghana, we are talking about embedded corruption in the system and this should be addressed, period!

  • George 10 years ago

    This is just to redicle our procurement systems after donor manipulations and has nothing to do with corruption.

  • Ben 10 years ago

    Every donor has a condition. If I pay the school fees of my nephews or nieces, the condition is that they will stay in school and graduate. If they fail to follow this simple terms and drop out of school, do you think I will ...

    PRINCE, STOP THE NONSENSE.

  • Concise 10 years ago

    There is too much repetition in this article. The journalist who wrote this should be able to learn how to summarise. In fact the whole writing is so boring and unclear due to the repetitions.

    George, you seem to be missing the point. The cash used for the procurement of the condoms were from donors of Global Fund, not from the Ghanaian government. What has corruption and flouting of procurement conditions as stipu ...

  • Ben 10 years ago

    You do not have the money and so you turn to donors for funds. Donors say use the funds for this particular thing and from this source, you agree and took the money. You then turn around say oh, I can buy this cheaper from an ...

    These incompetent and corrupt civil servants who are always on strike are to be blamed. They compromised their positions and should be on their way to their villages by now

  • Kwesi Agbenu 10 years ago

    When will our officals quit this dirty game,where money has become route of all evil. Love of money over taking the moral principal of human dignity. Love for material,capitalism. Dirty

  • Honestman 10 years ago

    The order: 128 million, written in figures as (128,000,000) is certainly less than 130 million (130,370,400) delivered. In effect the supplier supplied more condoms than ordered!

    What is the meaning of the first paragraph? So long and winding; it is a phrasal noun; it is not a complete sentence.
