So, how much was actually allocated for the project? I guess the vehicles would act as the power source for those rural folks. Sad but true.
Nkrumah was talking big when he said that the black-man was capable of managing his own affairs. It was like saying "I'm Black and Proud!"
There are serious curruption running into billions of dollars hitting Ghana everyday at the oil fields, ministries, Geada, Sobha, Sim box fraud, road tolls, judgement debts, NHIS, Ministries, ghost names etc. etc and the prof ...

That's the only way we can eventually arrive at accountability.

Do yiu have any idea about Gyimah's writings? You are definitely an ignoramus.

Okukuseku ,u r d most stupid person on this planet . Think with ur head not ur stomach,idiot ,stupid fool . God will punish u .
Moron doesn't this constituted an act of corruption like the rest you mentioned which is ruining our economy? What a buffoon you are.
Honestly Okukuseku you are naive. Surely you are accomplice when you say this issue with Oteng Adjei is small amount to talk about. Such men like you are dangerous.
Public Servants and Politicians have always been taking government properties such as vehicles home.
In 2008, the NDC had to chase some NPP politicians to bring back cars taken illegally. Likewise, in 2000, the NPP had to ...

So you take a loan for projects to help alleviate the people's suffering.
Then you divert the money into buying luxury cars at, at least, 3 times their worth.

Sometimes we send comments that make really sense, like urs, u know that not all of us lost our love for our country
These are the criminals who deserve to be slaughtered like rodents and not a minister in a military regime who went for a bank loan.
It is time to standardize vehicles that the state can purchase. No need for Land Cruisers, Lexus 570, Benz 550, when 4 runner can do. Time to do away with vehicles being sold to officers and ministers of state. These polic ...

KWASHIEVI RAWLINGS STARTED A CRIMINAL ORGANISATION, NOT A POLITICAL PARTY. THEY ARE ROBBERS AND MURDERERS, PERIOD.
Yes the owner of this looting brigade is absolutely quiet after bleeding all these bunch of thieves to loot the country's little resources.
I know the communications team of the NDC will surely come out to rationalize the stealing. They will tell us the NPP did the same when they were in office. Better Ghana indeed

JJ is not an NPP campaign manager to do the dirty work for you. He did it before but the NDC still won the elections. He has learned his lessons and will not be a second fool.

Are u saying 2 wrongs make a right? As suggesting that NDC's corruption is justified because NPP was corrupt?
Correction: should have read "are you suggesting"- apologies

If Ghana could swallow it's pride and admit that we are poor, we would be using Kristo Asafo cars.
One cannot just understand the Blackmans fixation to cars. Whilst cars are necessary as a utility our penchant to sink so much capital and resources into acquiring cars is a little bit on the fringes of abnormality. Our homes ...

How can these dogs mismanage our economy in such a horrible manner? Only time will tell.
The NDC's prayer is the NPP doesn't cam into power because Nsawam prison will be too full, many of these criminals will surely go to jail. Corruption everywhere aba!!!
Why are these guys always preaching doom for our Ghana??
1,200 communities have been deprived at the expense on one man. Can we survive as a country under this current NDC administration at all. God help your country Ghana.

The Shift manager himself is stealing why should the core officer not steal? Mahama is stealing with every part of his body. A day will come and trust me it will be a great DAY.
What an ugly criminal nincompoop. He claims he worked so hard he deserves to take what was not his!
Oteng Adjei must be prosecuted for stealing. All his assets must also be confiscated for the state.
