One of such principles, he said, is the survival of the fittest principle which is founded on the belief that power must be wielded up there, and that all other persons should derive power from them.

Others are Mr K.B Quantson, the current Executive Secretary of the Narcotic Control Board, formerly of the BNI, and an NDC hatchet man.
Another member of the board is K.B. Bonful, being the representative of the ministry of Interior and former Deputy Minister of Interior.
Then, Nii Okaidja Adamafio, former Minister of Interior, Mr G.S. Aggor former CID boss and Mr J.C. Amonoo Monney, Special Prosecutor during the PNDC era.
The former Executive Director also revealed that Capital Telecom is a ghost company owned by some Ghanaians and had bled the country to the tune of ?45 million in a fraudulent rural telecommunication deal.
Capital Telecom won the contract of undertaking the project, covering half of the country with the stated amount, in what the former P&T Corporation had at the time quoted $33 million to serve the entire country.
