Thank you for resigning as investigations commence. Some bastards will still stay in power even after similar controversies, especially Ashanti thieves.
Resigning is not enough, but just the beginning. There should be public inquiry into how the whole shitty deal rolled out, from the beginning to the end. The telephone numbers, emails and bank records of all the key people sh ...

Resignation letter is good step to move but Investigations must be done immediately hope Kwabena Donkor need to take dis advice
At least, there is one among the useless lot who has conscience. We are waiting for Wayongo and Kwabena Donkor.
THAT SHOULD NOT BE THE END OF THE MATTER OOO. ANY EXCESS PAYMENTS SHOULD BE REFUNDED. NO POINT RESIGNING TO ENJOY THE LOOT. SHOULD BE MADE TO ACCOUNT.
If the President has accepted Attivors resignation, then it means that he was aware of the sordid deal before it hit the public domain. Why didnt he do anything about it before the woman was exposed by the public.
It seems ...

This bitch NDC woman needs to be persecuted.
Prez. John Mahama and his Energy Minister must resign. These shady contracts is the bane of Ghana's economic woes. The NDC gov't headed by John Mahama is not worth a pinch of salt, they must be swept away by hook or crook! Gh ...

While the Minister's resignation is a first in the right direction in restoring public confidence, it shouldn't be the end of the whole scandal. A thorough investigation needs to be launched with the ultimate goal to recoup a ...

This is the modus operandi of all the ministers -- they take a cut for themselves and the party. That is why every contract is bloated -- hospital renovations, classrooms, power, sports, road constructions, airports etc., did ...

Like Woyome, stealing is in the blood of Ewes(i.e. Thieves). Where is that charlatan called JJ Rawlings.......let him loosen his mouth now.

Sipa Yankey formerly of Energy Ministry is an Ashanti man from Bosomtwe where Chairman Wuntumi also hails from oooo
Let's be cool with her for now. Let's shout praises on her head so we can push her to spill any bean that she has up her chest. The thumb will point to the path to the Headquarters of robbery commission; the jubileee house.
This is not to say since the NPP took no action in their corrupt deals, NDC must also follow in like manner however, this same stupid idiot called Oyokoba did not ask for public inquiry into Kufuor's and his 17 seventeen alib ...

You an an IDIOT
Tribalise anything on this site because that suites some of you. Is Woyome in jail after all the brouhaha surrounding his stealing?
Another thief exposed.Keep counting.
resign, keep your part of the loot, and keep it quiet. saga continues
YOU ARE STUPID FOR ENGAGING IN TRIBAL DISCRIMINATION.
Shut up! Ewes and the northerners has been a thorn in Ghanaians flesh for so long. Nonsense! Allow him to speak the truth.
BUT EWES WHAT HAS GONE WRONG WITH YOUR MEN AND WOMEN LOOTING GHANA IN GARGANTUAN WAY
Kwasia kasa kwa
That was an idiotic post
Tribal war. We don't want anymore of that. Don't be fooled by politics. It's just a mind playing game. Whether an Ewe or an Ashanti we all Ghanaian's. I'm proud to be an Nzema.
CIRCLE DIRTY ASHAWO SON
This is why we can't develop she is going to enjoy the money what have we done to Wayome nothing
This state of affairs must stop. Loot and share
I am suprise this decent prople has not demanded thier Picture to be rip off this battered buses
Dont worry,
Ghanaians will graffiti the faces/pictures on the buses when the buses hit the street
Decent people indeed. They are all part of the problems.If Konadu had Nsawam Cannery and Kuffour had Hotel Waa waa? How can they be decent? It is in everybody's DNA
to cover up and after election given a post. Thus the idea is NDC master plan
Well done Mrs. Attivor , you have shown a good example. Though it's painful but you have done the right thing. You really understand democracy. It's my wish that other ministers will emulate you.......Mr. Donkor a word to the ...

Kudos, Madam Minister. Indeed, you have brought "abrokyire" to Ghana.
Even you don't believe it when your paymasters tell you to write it. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
What has this got to Ashantis? They are better tribes than yours. Kwasea
He is a full blood Ga, do yourself a favoure by asking yourself why he is bitterly picking on Ashantis?
God will punish you for such act, resigned to where.Bring our balance shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame.kwasea gyimii your children will suffer for it
It looked nice
Let her also be prosecuted if found culpable, including the CEO of the so - called Smartyys company. She Sellassie Ibrahim is just like her own husband, all they know how to do is to steal from Ghanaians all the time. Wait fo ...

My take is that the Special Prosecutor that the NPP sets up ill look into this
My recommendation is that Martin ABK Amidu is appointed to that role
I agree with you. We need Nana to demand accountability for all these dubious acts.
....... before it gets too hot to handle.
Crooks draped with ministerial appointments indeed!
Unless officials are liable and finally legally prosecuted for making decisions such as these in office, resignations amount to just a slap in the face of the general public
Now that these situations were overpriced contracts are given for the kickbacks are getting exposed we will see a slow down in this type of activity. Now the government will be forced to focus on power and water supply. Tho ...

Allowing these activities to slow down due to exposure is not enough. Starting from the top, if examples start being made out of these high profile cases, it will serve as a longer term deterrent.
HAHAH.IT SEEMS YOU DON'T KNOW THESE NDC CRIMINALS.THEY ARE NOT ASHAME OF ANYTHING,VERY DISGRACIFUL PEOPLE INDEED.MAHAMAH IS OUR PROBLEM,HE IS THE CEO OF THE CORRUPT PLC IN GHANA.HE WILL BY ALL MEANS ASK HER TO WORK AT THE PRE ...

If Kleptomanics is detected,does Honorable not termed Dishonorable!.
AMERI Christmas to you all. No more happy branding;b'cos the Minister did the right thing to throw in the towel. Sorry,though!
What a stupid country. We don't punish people for stealing and wasting our money anyhow. I pitty these western countries that give us loans and grants
This lady has to be brought into the floors of Parliament to account for all the cost.
She should NEVER be allow to go free because she has steal Ghanaians
Come and account you thief
This a 'Create Loot and Share' gone wrong. The Minister has been sacked for 'mismanaging' the thievery.
She should have learnt from the likes of Betty Mould, Ebo Barton Oduro and the current Attorney General.

What about the stolen booty?
What about the stolen money?
Prosecute this bicth
and how much has she "collected" in her period as Minister ?
Mrs Attivor decision to resign will save her image
I hope my brothers in the NPP who under their administration resorted to holding onto power even under damning report was made about them will learn from the humility and example of the minister
Arrest and prosecute hereewes
Refund the loot
Another woman in NDC? Start counting them and u would be surprised. The rise and fall of NDC. From, I want to have one million dollars in my Acct. to the human rights director and keep counting that what NDC got, from them.
This is the first in Ghana and Mrs Attivor must be applauded for taking such a bold decision.A good example for ghanaians holding public and political offices to emulate.
Some of you people spew nonsense. She is resigning because she has been caught and has been advised to resign or be let go. She should be made to refund money and also prosecuted. I wonder how many of these deals has gone thr ...

Mike , God will punish u n ur family!! Fool
She needs to be punished. Resignation alone is not enough. Corruption shpuld not be condoned and connived. She stole so must face the consequences of her greed according to the laws of the land. Stupid fool!
Nothing new here. She's going to be a presidential staffer-office of the president making more money than ever. The money has been already been used for campaigning for NDC
It will be recalled when the NDC party won the 2008 elections the Min of Transport at the time was Joe Gidisu the MP for Central Tongu. He was appointed as a Min by the late President John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills when John Dra ...

That woman is a criminal and should have even been sacked way back when she used a whopping $20 million to renovate the Kumasi Airport
