Bull crap, why retract the line? He might not have used the exact phrase of no big deal but if you read the pronouncements he made in totality "no big deal" is the interpretation you can put on it, especially when he cited what people are paying in other places and hence concluding the rent amount is not strange to him.

The Twum-Boafo fool does not understand that what one does with his own money is his own choice, but government money is different, it is not for personal comfort. You owe the tax payers fiduciary responsibility to use their money wisely and above reproach. Aboa like that.

Retraction makes no difference -- the "no big deal" was the "in other words" of the same thought process. Yes, it is strange for a mere government official to pay that much rent in Ghana and in any other country.

So if he didnt use that line, why was the line used for him? You people are simply incongrously stupid. When someone says something, say exactly what he said. Do you understand what the word fiduciary means at all? Idiot.

This is even worse than the " no big deal " statement. How many people apart from thieving polititians pay that rent in dollars ? To him and his kind the amount is not strange or as the American will say , no big deal .

It is just unreasonable to keep her for such a long time in the hotel and someone must answer for that.

Not using "not big deal" does not change the meaning of what he said. Let hte idiot know that anyone is free to pay whatever huge amount to live any where of their choice but the people should not bear that cost. One could choose to stay in London and fly home everyday for work but once the work is being done efficiently and we are not paying for the trips, we don't give a monkey's ass. We have a problem if the cost is passed on to us.

"No big deal", "Is it strange?" The value is the same. And Ghanaians don't expect any better from a morally bankrupt Twum Boafo. If he could rape his step mother, what on this earth could be a big deal for Twum Boafo?

"We wish to clarify that Twum-Boafo did not use the exact phrase as we ascribed to him in the headline: CHRAJ boss’ $4,500 rent allowance no big deal - Twum-Boafo.

He rather said: “Paying $4,500 a month at AU Village, is it strange? People are renting apartment at Cantonments and paying 5000, is it strange?"
.........................................................................................................................................................

Give us a break, Mr Twum Boafo.

Is there any substantive difference between what you ACTUALLY said and the inference that any reasonable person could have drawn from the headline??????

I am sure Twum Boafo asked for that rejoinder. Nonsesne, if it's not strange, it's no big deal. Why is he whining?

Ghanaians living in Ghana do not know the VALUE of money. What kind of apparment charges USD$5,000 a month, that is, GHC16,260 (today's rates)in Ghana? How much does the person earn a month? I just happen to live in Canada and people rent a whole four bedroom house for between CAD2500 and CAD3,000 a month. We will continue to steal, rape and destroy our country until we one day somebody or some nation will tell us the country has been mortgaged and that all citizens are slaves! God help the Black African!

I am here in the states and to rent an apartment for say $2500, the person will rather buy a house and make a monthly mortgage less than $2500. Nobody will rent apartment for $2500.
