This lady must go together with her deputy to send the right signal that the government is now serious about flushing out criminals and nation wreckers from state institutions.

We know that this type of looting has been going for long, but the line must be drawn at some point. The writer can't justify her actions by referring to similar corrupt cases in the past to justify her remaining in office.

Moreover, this has nothing to do with NDC or NPP; the issue is about the survival of Ghana itself as a nation and you have to be more patriotic than you have sounded in your write up. If I may ask, are you sharing the money with her.

Has the renovation been completed? Where was she supposed to stay during the renovation. Her position comes with suitable accomodation. She must be well accomodated to perform.
This lady has not done anything wrong, blame those supposed to release monies for the completion of the renovations. My only reluctant problem is why she accepted to stay in a hotel which discounted the daily rental. Sh should not have accepted that otherwise no bagger wire!!!!

One interesting thing is that all these officials have big mansion of their own in all the big town in Ghana and most of the so called hotels belong to them. I think every body must get their own accommodation without the government getting involved. The irony is that in Ghana those who are paid good are the ones that the government have added on every thing... cars, houses, offices and even food. Things must change in Ghana like most civilized nations.

That is the foolishness we have in Ghana. Well, people are not prosecuted or asked for refund. So others think it is good to embezzle too. When is Wayome going to pay back the stolen money? Perhaps,never.

This author is the chief hypocrite here. He is deliberately dragging other people into this CHRAJ wahala to give some credence to what is going on with the economy and this case. A and, a piano, Tarzan were all investigated and could not be prosecuted for lack of evidence so wherein lies your comparison? Couldn't she had built a new abode in three years with almost $200,000? Does she want to live like Bill Gates in present Ghana while Ga indegenes sleep on the beaches of Chorkor and La?

Did CHRAJ boss decide on her own that she was going to spend state funds without authority? Were the payments not audited and approved? Why did the renovation take three (3) years and remains uncompleted. Who is responsible for that? Did the government engage her with accommodation as a benefit? Let those responsible for providing her accommodation answer to the charge and not Lauretta. Does it make sense for government to loan GHS50million to Agambire without interest and the money remains unpaid?

I do not see the reason why this paper is trying to defend the act of misappropriation by Ms. Lamprey. The fact that some personalities committed same offence yester-years does not means that well-meaning Ghanaian can not express their disqust if same offence is committed today. Even the reference the paper made in its submission was the talk of town during those days that the incidence took place. It appears this paper is trying hard to do the biding to Ms Lamprey and by so doing defending what in the ordinary man view difficult to do.

I thought the writer here was making a sensible case in defense of the shamed materially greedy CHRAJ Boss.

To justify a wrong doing or any practice of corruption that had cost the nation by relating this crime to another is the most stupid any sensible being with his head well fitted to his body might have thought to do as two wrongs do not make one right.

They say, common sense is not common.

In the mist of financial scarcity the people of Ghana expect those put in places of trust will show patriotism to safe the country any little penny.

The CHRAJ Boss action is just unprecedented upsurge of greed that led to corruption of the highest level that must be condemn by all meaningful Ghanaian.

The fact that a minister under NPP misused more funds, does not make this lesser of an evil. These are the type of stupid tit for tat ideologies that continue to plague our dear nation

Until now I have always regarded Public Agendain high esteem because their outlook on issues in general. But for this issue I beg to differ. Can any expenditure be made at Chirajj without her approval or the buck stops somewhere lse. Have you heard of the term Willfully causing financial loss to the state? I\Here its not only NDC and NPP who are crying foul. It is the general public. The Ghanaian people whose taxes are used for all these expenses. So we cannot or should not talk because some people sometime ago did similar things. As for this issue, I will say shame unto Public Agenda and come again.

An Italian man enters his favorite ritzy restaurant and while sitting at his regular table, he notices a gorgeous woman sitting at a nearby table. ...Alone. He calls the waiter over and asks for the most expensive bottle of Merlot to be sent over to her, knowing that if she accepts it, she will be his. The waiter gets the bottle and quickly takes it to her saying who it came from. She looks at the bottle and decides to send a note over to the man. The note said "For me to accept this bottle, you must have a Mercedes in your garage, a million dollars in the bank , and 7 inches in your pants.." After reading the note, the man sends one back to her and it read: "Just so you know, I have a Ferrari testarosa, a BMW 850iL, and a Mercedes 560 sel, I have over 20 million in the bank, but not even for a woman as beautiful as you would I cut off 3 inches! Just send the bottle back

The fact "that she might have over-spent the scarce budget of CHRAJ, and showed imprudence and misjudgment" concerning the use of scarce public funds, is even serious grounds for removing her from office.

When one is put in any official position, one does not (grossly) misuse the funds of the organization involved, just because you happen to be the head.

You are to act very prudently and judiciously in the use of the organizations resources.

If it had been some other country, she would have been kicked out long ago, and made to face criminal charges. But in Ghana, officials who steal money, just go scot free, like nothing happened. Why? Because those at the top are all stealing the Ghana money and putting it in their foreign accounts in places like DUBAI etc.

This smells like paid press.
Your attempts to quell people's anger towards sleaze in this administration is rather fanning the fire.

When did two wrongs ever make a right?
