Ghanaians must kick them out
Shame on NPP as for we NDC we're socialists we don't enjoy luxury things that is why we walk with the poor.
I guess you did not understand what you wrote yourself! You bought luxurious cars that because of this exposure ure now shamelessly returning!
The luxurious cars went to the NDC ministers home on their own,they did not take it by force.NDC as a socialist will never steal from Ghana.
It is alright if he has returned the car. Others pay 300 for a presidential car.
NDC IS DOOMED FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only in Ghana when you mess-up at Minister of Energy of they move you to Ministry of Environment and Science. What a country God have mercy on us.

America does not buy cars for their officials. They buys cars but they do not assign them to the officials and you get to use a govt car only when you are on official business. There is nothing like that here in America.

Cars, buildings, appliances for use by the state must thoroughly be regulated by the Auditor-General period.
Master- The car was purchased for a particular purpose. You can not use it for any official duties- This is simple accountability. Africans must stop rationalizing every bad decision they make
Ideally, we would all expect that materials purchased for a particular purpose within an outfit, would just stay there and be used solely for that purpose.
But, practically, when one side of the Government is lacking in r ...
