It is really arrogant on Tsatsu to say that he is entitled to ex-Gratia unless he is confused about ex-Gratia and his provident contribution which he is entitled to.
Tsatsu was relieved of his position as the CEO of GNPC by Rawlings for running GNPC to the ground and we don't owe him any money.

I have followed with keen interest the news of a commercial oil find in Ghana and the optimism that it has engendered in the country.
There is a welcome buoyancy in the mood of many Ghanaians as they look forward to being an oil-producing country.
There are many people and institutions that deserve credit for the oil find — members of staff of the GNPC through to its present staff and of course to the public that patiently supported the difficult, protracted but unavoidable exploration effort.
There is indeed enough credit to go round.
I cannot therefore help being disappointed that amidst all the celebrations, no mention is made of the pioneering role of Tsatsu Tsikata.
When I compare the exciting prospects generated by the discovery with the state of affairs 20-odd years ago, I am reminded of the contrast between the situation of the mining sector before and after the implementation of the reforms of the mid-1980s.
I first joined the board of the Minerals Commission in September 1984. At that time, the mining sector was in a parlous state.
As a result of the work done by a few dedicated people under the leadership of Kofi Ansah, the sector was completely transformed in less than a decade.
In the mining sector, we at least had the benefit of over 100 years of mining and considerable technical expertise.
The oil sector in the early 1980s did not enjoy any such stature. I recall the scepticism with which prospects of Ghana finding oil in commercial quantities was greeted at the time.
I remember in 1985, while on a trip to the U.S., asking a chief executive of one of the major oil companies why they were not showing interest in searching for oil in Ghana.
His response was that their geophysicists had told them that our geological structures were too tight and too badly faulted to host significant reservoirs.
Today, we know just how wrong those geophysicists were. One man who defied the prevailing scepticism of the time and, with a persistence bordering on stubbornness, led the efforts to get us where we are today, is Tsatsu Tsikata.
Indeed, when I shared with him, shortly after it was made, the observation by the chief executive of the oil major, Tsatsu's response was: "Let's all wait and see".
Tsatsu led in the rethinking of petroleum sector policy. He led in crafting the petroleum (Exploration and Production) law that was the "investment code" for the oil sector.
He led in drafting model exploration agreements including fiscal regime and Accounting Guide that is still state-of-the-art 20 years later.
He led in the development of a specific Petroleum Income Tax Law.
Beyond this intellectual and professional contribution Tsatsu emerged as a corporate leader — building GNPC itself from the ground up.
His vision was sufficiently infectious to attract even hard-nosed oil men to work on Ghana's potential, often with very little reward.
However, it is in his identification, recruitment and promotion of local talent that Tsatsu truly excelled.
He was truly passionate about building the capacity of Ghanaian professionals in the sector.
Companies and government's that had dealings with GNPC were pressured into funding scholarships and providing or funding attachments for GNPC staff and even staff from related MDAs.
Tsatsu foresaw that this investment would in its own way be as valuable to Ghana as any oil find. And history has proved him right.
Today, even before the first oil has flowed, Ghana has a solid cadre of industry professionals ready, given the opportunity, to lead us into the next phase of oil industry development.
We have seasoned exploration geologists and geophysicists, drilling engineers, field development engineers.
We have specialised market and financial analysts and lawyers. In the late 1980s GNPC was already developing boat and helicopter services expertise for production operations. In the 1980s (20 years before the West African Gas Pipeline and before climate change became a global preoccupation), GNPC was training staff in the economics and management of natural gas.
Tsatsu was relentless, even obsessive, about the meticulous exploration of Ghana's oil potential.
He recognised that geological and geophysical data were essential preconditions for any serious effort to attract private capital into exploration efforts.
He thus focused GNPC's meagre resources on an ambitious data project.
GNPC scoured corporate and public archives around the world collecting geological and seismic materials, data and analysts from earlier exploration efforts.
GNPC then constructed the most complete database of seismic information about Ghana anywhere in the world.
Then through a joint venture with the Norwegian state oil company, GNPC seismologists began to reprocess and re-analyse this data using new technology. Tsatsu did not stop with old data.
He worked with state oil companies from Canada (Petro-Canada International), Norway (Statoil) and Brazil (Petrobras) and Nigeria (NNPC's seismic subsidiary) to acquire new data.
Through these bilateral arrangements GNPC staff became familiar with modern technology such as "3-D" seismic surveys.
Eventually, Tsatsu persuaded these collaborators to support GNPC's acquisition of the expensive computer technology to enable her Ghanaian explorationists to undertake much of this analysis in Ghana.
This in turn provided a platform for a massive upgrade of GNPC's computer technology with positive impacts on all other sectors of its work and with distinct benefits for example for Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.
It was the availability of this extensive database and the challenging analyses of old data by Ghanaian geophysicists working under Tsatsu that made Ghana such an attractive exploration destination in the mid-'80s despite earlier scepticism.
It was the ceaseless interpretation and re-interpretation of the GNPC's growing geological and geophysical database inspired by and supervised by Tsatsu that identified many new prospects.
Tsatsu literally set the course of Ghana's exploration drilling for an entire generation. Those who worked with him in the sector are in a better position than I to give further details.
But I saw enough to be able to say that his investment in institution building and in exploration have contributed immensely to the recent discoveries at Cape Three Points.
For the health of our nation, for the sake of posterity and the development of a culture that recognises selfless and dedicated service, we must all acknowledge the immense contribution that Tsatsu made to the development of the petroleum sector.
It is not too late to do so.

Why suddenly Tsikata has come to the realization that he deserves an ex-Gratia from GNPC? He never thought so when NDC came back to power under Professor E.A Mills but suddenly after the Election Petition under John Mahama's administration; 15 years down the line!!!! That is curious!!!
Chronologically going:
1.Rawlings removed Tsikata in 2000 without ex-Gratia approved for him.
2. A new Government takes over from Rawlings in 2001 and Naturally will not risk recommending ex-Gratia to an official dismissed by a previous government without court orders.
3. Eight years down the lane, NDC takes over the reigns of governance under Prof Mills and still no ex-Gratia for Mr Tsikata.
4. Suddenly after the election petition in which Tsikata was the lead Lawyer for President Mahama, Tsikata becomes entitled for ex-Gratia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My friend, did you know when the so-called ex-gratia were packaged for Tsikata and the others? If the trend is something new and according to you, came about after the election petition, then how come K.T Hammond knows so much details about such ex-gratia? Tsikata is claiming here that he deserve such gratuity from the GNPC for a work well done, but as at yet, he hasn't received any such baksheesh to date and would love to go to court to explain as to why he is entitled to such benefit and the reason it's still not bestowed upon him. Something he hoped K.T. Hammond would help him sort out soon.

Ex-Gratia is enshrined in the 1992 constitution and those who are qualified are explicitly stated in the constitution.
Tsatsu was dismissed from GNPC in November of 2000 by Rawlings but the akpeteshi mouth lied in his statement that he was let go in 2001trying to flummox Ghanaians to believe Npp under Kufuor politically sent him packing.
He was dismissed and therefore not entitled to any ex-Gratia. I thought this thief is suing Hammond for saying he has been paid. Is he still going to pursue his lawsuit if he takes the payment? What a shameless thief.

Benefits after been dismissed! This ll be the first of its kind in our nations history. Mr Tsikata I have a question you. According to u this is money work for and duly deserved, what about the the monies you did not work for that you stole from GNPC? Are you going to refund it? You are an apology of a human being , a disgrace and a shame to the legal profession. So called astute lawyer who could use his legal brains to earn a living. You always be remembered for collapsing GNPC. You are one of the reasons why Rawlings should be prosecuted. He came killed people and in the end imposed himself and big criminals like you ad John Mahama on us. Social Democrats indeed

How many ministers in Osagyefuo's government were ewes? Can somebody remember? I know of the northerners who were ministers and trusted comrades of Osagyefuo and the Gas but I'm not sure of the ewes after sacking and expelling Gbedemah from his party for stealing from the state. It is the hall mark of the ewes to be in government to steal that's why those northern Togolese have vowed never to let them near the seat of government. I don't understand why john mahama wouldn't listen to the northern Togolese to keep them off the seat of government and have allowed them to create, loot and share the nation's resources like there is no tomorrow. They are damn thieves, you can't do anything with them and succeed hence the most incompetent government of the whole of Africa is john mahama's government.
