  Who is behind this write up. Please take your veil off so we can have some confidence in what has been written. Else I take it to be an opposition party member trying to embarrass the Hon. Minister.

  What is important is that going forward into the future, to avoid any such suspicions from arising, active steps will be taken by the current administration to reassure Ghanaians that there will always be transparency in all such transactions.
  
  The question then is: What has the Hon Ken Ofori-Atta (and other ministers, incidentally) done to avoid even the appearance of conflict of interest in his work as Ghana's finance minister - given his private-sector business background?
  
  Although many of us don't doubt his commitment to protecting his nation's best interests at all material times, it might be wise and politically prudent for him to tell the nation exactly how he has ensured that there will be no conflict of interest situations that will disadvantage the Republic of Ghana in his work.
  
  That will be reassuring for the many fair-minded and patriotic Ghanaians who want this administration to succeed for the sake of all Ghanaians and Mother Ghana.
  
  One wishes him well - but since we will not experience rule by saints any time soon in our homeland Ghana, perforce we will all watch his team with eagle eyes.

  Woow npp corruption never stops. But now it has started too early. Akufo Addo is proving what people always suspected that he wanted to be president to recoup and replace sold family assets for failed past campaigns

  Elaborate gibberish... Only two questions and your analysis will fall flat... Did Templeton buy the bonds through Enteprise Group? that's what you said... Remember the arrangers were the SAS Group, Stanbic and Barclays... Where did Enteprise come in?
  
  2.. Was Tekper's coupon rate in dollars or cedis? you say Tekper issued a 9% and Ken has issued a 19 %... now is it not true that Tekper's was on the dollar while Ken's on the cedi?
  
  Is it also not true that these same debt that has been re-profiled was selling at 22% but upon the restructuring, the cost to government has rather reduced to 19.7 %...
  
  You write well... however use your skills to educate us not to create mischief and wreck people's reputations...
  I think it will serve us all better...
  Good writing skills, rubbish subject matter...
  
  ciao
  Ghanaba...
