Osafo Maafo is the corrupt minister in this government - Murtala Mohammed

The former Member of Parliament and Minister of Trade Hon Murtala Mohammed, has accused Senior Minister Yaw Osafo Maafo Of being one of the most corrupt ministers in the government.

He stated this, on Radio Gold’s Alhaji and Alhaji program, and alleged that it was due to this same corruption situation that was why he was removed by President Kufuor during his tenure, following the issue of the Macmillan scandal which involved the printing of some books for Ghanaian schools supervised by Mr Osafo Maafo as the then Education Minister.
