The National Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi Esquire has dared the Nana Addo Dankwah Akuffo-Addo led government to chase NDC members they say have benefited financially from the NDC government when they were in office.
He made this statement after the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Sekondi Constituency, Andrew Egyapa Mercer has stated that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) during its tenure in office wrongfully paid Kofi Buckman and Associates, SAS Finance Group, Bullion Finance, and McQuary when they were cooking the Ghana Gold Transaction in 2011 before it was truncated.
Speaking on Joy FM’s Top Story, Sammy Gyamfi alluded to the fact that the NPP has made it as a matter of importance to always tag the NDC with corruption whilst they were in office and that it was time the government came after the NDC members it said were corrupt.
Mr Gyamfi said that the ruling NPP is yet to come after any member of the NDC in a quest to retrieve such monies because they know the allegation is false.
He said: “You see talk is cheap. They are in government now. If they think anybody violated the laws of this country and were paid monies that they were not supposed to be paid, let them retrieve it. That cannot be a justification for this naked robbery,”
Meanwhile, Mr. Gyamfi is also asking President Akufo-Addo to retrieve the billions of cedis his government dishonestly paid under the controversial Agyapa deal in a week or the country will witness the biggest demonstration ever organised.
According to the Communications Officer, monies have been illegally paid to Databank, which is owned by the President’s cousin and Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta; African Legal Associates, which is owned by another cousin Gabby Otchere Darko; and their foreign compradors.”
This, he said, exhibits the nepotism that is being perpetrated by the Akufo-Addo government and the more reason why this government needs to be out come December 7 by all well meaning Ghanaians.
