  For a long time, Ghanaian Institutions including the Academics have justified and accepted expenses without supporting documents or receipts. A practice that encourages corruption and showed its ugly head in Kwesi Nyantakyi's famous coefficient payments. Could that be the serpent that is biting UG today?

  The AG is wrong. International best practice requires the auditor to give the audited institution a chance to respond to preliminary findings before going public. The AG in Ghana has been abusing its authority to villify institutions and individuals. While we appreciate the AG's zeal to uncover financial wrongdoing in state institutions, it should be careful not to use unverified findings to defame others.

  You can say all you want. The auditors did a very good auditing before arriving at their conclusion. Whether international standard or not, they were found to overstating compensation claims period.
