The coalition of Civil Society Organisations against corruption has bemoaned they are deluged by president Akuffo Addo’s corruption scandals.
In a press statement copied to AwakeNews on Friday 27 November 2020, the group said, “we are overwhelmed by the plethora of unending corruption scandals in the Nana Addo led government and matters arising from the resignation of the Special Prosecutor, Martin Amidu”.
They noted that with details in the sixty-four (64) page report of the Agyapa Royalties Limited Transaction it has indited president Nana Akuffo Addo as the key individual that interfered in the work of the Special Prosecutor, adding that the infamous Agyapa Royalties deal was crafted in secrecy without any proper discussions and breached the procurement act.
However, the CSOs are demanding a couple of actions to be taken by the president to exhibit good leadership. “we the civil society organizations are calling on president Akuffo Addo on principles of good governance resign for his involvement and interference with the work of the Special Prosecutors which occasioned his untimely resignation”.
” Mr. Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko and his Africa Legal Associates, be made to refund of all monies paid them. “Mr. Ken Ofori-Atta be made to step aside or resign his position as finance minister for in-depth investigations to be carried into the Agyapa Royalties Transactions”,
The coalition subsequently revealed that Ghana beyond aid cannot be achieved if the president and his family and cronies keep milking the state through dubious means. They insisted the president cannot be misled or claim to be unaware of the numerous corruption scandals in his government, mostly around his family members.
