MPs & Bribe

Not only that MPs who are members of tender boards take bribe from lobbyists before approving their tenders but most of them are engaged in a lot of nefarious activities. Most MPs are in their position not for any good for their constiuency or the country but to use the position and the privileges associated with to amass illegal wealth as much as they can.Assin North MP Mr Ken Ohene Ageypong have engaged in this visa "connection" for $5000 for some time now. Members of Parliament should not pretend as if they do not know the "deals" that goes on there. We outside want our relatives to join us and if our MPs why not help but for that that fee being charged.As if we were not the people who voted them. I know five people who the above mentioned MP have collected $5000 each from them to just to get them a visa to leave the country in april or may.ITS A SHAME ON OUR MPs .

JAK's New Car

I was wondering if you could fill me in. I was on the bus from work this morning when overheard someone talking about our president's acquisition of newvehicles (pajero). Is it true? Have you got any news on that?

Want to hear a story

Sir
It may be of interest to the embassy to know of two foreign individuals who may be attempting to use Ghana as a landing place for luring foriegn refugees into a dark and dubios

One is a LIBERIAN National called LINDA GARWAY currently on illegal refuge status in Ghana born in Monrovia Buchanan state.. Liberia 12 of August 1976 of No 6 Windy RIdge Takoradi GHANA which is owned by Justice AMOH who seems to applaude the whole matter as he knows her business she has been involved with the Takoradi police from that house

But paid a local constable a 2 million cedi FINE to allow her to stay in Takoradi DID he share it with his fellow policemen or has he saved it

The other is a British national who is assisting her with finances etc also at the moment residing at the same address at windy ridge

I would suggest that neither of these indiviudals are suitable for visa renews to reside in GHANA
