The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has launched a platform to expose misappropriation and embezzlement of state funds by officials of the Akufo-Addo government code-named “Corruption Tracker Series”.
The National Communication Officer of the NDC, Sammy Gyamfi who launched the platform in the capital, Accra on Monday [June 8, 2020] said the tracker will help Ghanaians appreciate how “the corrupt Akufo-Addo government is plundering the already constraint public purse of Ghana and the extent of damage this government has inflicted on all sectors of our nation.”
“As a responsible opposition with the responsibility of keeping government on its toes, the NDC is today embarking on a corruption tracker series to track the status of the countless cases of corruption we have witnessed under the Akufo-Addo government in the last three and half years. Scandals which have occasioned huge financial losses to the state and robbed Ghanaians of the developments they were promised in the year 2016,” he said.
He accused President Akufo-Addo of being the “leader and chief patron of this notoriously corrupt administration.”
Alleging some corruption scandals, recorded in the Akufo-Addo regime, Sammy Gyamfi said the Bulk Oil and Storage Transport (BOST) has been left with no strategic stocks of its own and literally borrowing to pay workers on the back of the rot that hit the state company.
“The next NDC-Mahama government in 2021, shall investigate and prosecute all culprits who are involved in this stinking “BOSTGATE” corruption scandal,” he said.
