Julius Debrah, former Chief of Staff
Former Chief of Staff, Mr Julius Debra has revealed that the imported V8 cars alluded to by the Daily Guide newspaper are for the Judicial Service.
"They are not for the Executive," he insists.
The Chief of Staff's clarification is in sharp response to a misleading story which seeks to suggest that President Mahama's Government is clearing vehicles at the port for purposes unknown.
According to the report, the vehicles arrived at the Tema Habour about five days ago, imported by the outgoing NDC administration and a letter from the presidency, the Flagstaff House, had been issued for them to be cleared, raising concerns about who may have imported them into the country at this time and for what purpose they were brought in.
The Daily Guide further states that Customs officers were confused as to whether the vehicles should be released or not since they are exempted from duty.
But Mr Julius Debrah, however, clarified that what Government did for the Judicial Service is basically to facilitate clearance from the port by ensuring the exemption of various fees and charges.
