Woyome 51m cedis is a child's play

CP payment for no work was 94m Euro.

CP presented a claim that his Anwhiankwanta project was terminated.

The project was never terminated. CP just stopped work when Kufuor came to power.

When Kufuor left he presented a claim based on termination by Kufuor admininstration.

Mills , Mahama and the entire cabinet looked on and Betty Mould approved to pay 94m Euro ---$120m --500m Cedis just like that.

They never consulted the Road authorities. They never consulted Kufuor administration.

Corrupt Goodluck Jonathan is gone.

John Mahama the super corrupt thief is next.

FIRE BURN BETTY MOULD,,BARTON ODURO,,MAHAMA, DEAD MILLS AND ALL

Instead of government officials using their minds to build a lasting governance system, they are using their minds to create circumstances that will enable them and their political parties to exploit the people. That is why we are in such a mess ! Where in the procurement guidelines does it say that a contractor should pay money ahead of being awarded a contract. That is called a BRIBE !!

I didn't know Spio garbrah is PATAPAA like that. What he has done is clearly indefensible, yet swimming in his conceit, he cannot come down to admit his error. The more he tries to justify his folly, the more he entangles himself in Folly. And this is a 'Team A' minister for NDC. So can you imagine what sort of material the 'Team-B' ministers are?

So sad our Ga and Fante brothers are allowing themselves to be used by NDC to sink Ghana to the abyss. I pray that the sensible ones among them will wake the rest out of their stupor. Else before they opened their eyes, this country would have been broken beyond repair.

I still fail to understand this whole brouhaha . Akoto Osei the team F NPP parliamentarian admits the issue of seeking parliament approval did not arise, courtesy his interview with Joyfm. He admits also that he is not a lawyer and did not write the 1992 constitution. WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING IN PARLIAMENT IF NOT FOR THE SAME CONSTITUTION ? Should we therefore allow only LAWYERS into the supposedly useless but August house that houses all these self seeking parliamentarians ? Perhaps there must be a threshold for people who enter into the August house and who understand that the constitution is the primary law above all for the country. BAM .

Where do we go if law makers cannot interpret the laws they make? Anyway this is just by the way; why should Ghana be force into search a mess with these thieving criminals in government.

If the best communicator the NPP can throw at a dysfunctional NDC is Nana Akomea then the NPP is as incompetent and naked as the next jail bird. Nana Akomea seems not bright and competent to know, even in Ghana politics, that the Chief of Staff does not have the power to speak for a department of government and darn sure cannot dictate to competent managers of a state institution who is not afraid to do what is right by Ghana and not party.

Secondly there can be no denial from any sensible Ghanaian that it is pure evil for politicians and office holders to sabotage progress in Ghana by selling misinformation or stealing and mismanaging tax payer money. I know in Akomea’s neck of the wood and party thieves and lairs are revered

Strange journalists. From what I read from the above posting, Spio did not ask all 5 DICs to contribute $ 35 mln each but but rather any that could make the above amount available to the GOG. This is contained in the 4th but last paragraph. So why multiply 35 by 4.27.

I am not commenting on the merits of Spio's letter but why exaggerate?

I am saddened by the nature of our people. God save us.

Ask the deputy minister of minister her unauthorized role in signing letters at the ministry regarding Bankswitch, and her role in bringing the new company from Dubai to duplicate the role of other inspection destination companies. Ask the devious minister who is in collusion with family members of the ruling government.

Then why didn't NPP take responsibility for the Woyome debts? Because they NPP abrogated a contract awarded before they came to power so they abrogated it!

"Tiiifing" and deception are the same, so Spio Garbrah should stop this thrash and accept this faults. It's surprising to hear him try to defend his attempted crime. Just keep your mouth shut and reflect on what you were about to do, to disgrace Ghana. Try to be sober so people would sympathize with you a bit.
