.1. NDC HAS MILKED GHANA DRY: NDC guys are crooks. The other time Dr Apaak, a presidential staffer under Mahama, came out to claim that an amount of $5.9M was rather the cost of the new Veep Mansion. Then NDC Deputy Minority leader, James Klutse Avedzi, also said the amount is $5.0M. Now the NDC General Secretary is saying the amount is $3.5M. It is only the NPP that has remained consistent with $13.9 so far. It appears the NDC is not saying the truth. They are doing this to defend Thief Mahama at all cost. However, pressure mounted on the NDC has forced Allotey Jacobs, the NDC chairman for Central Region to admit guilt. He stated on Peace Fm that the fresh document from Consar on the cost of the project brings finality to the controversy surrounding the cost, adding that contesting the cost is impossible.

“With what has come from Consar Limited, it is difficult to defend this issue. They are on the job and what they have put out settles the controversy surrounding the cost of the project. If Consar themselves have put out this information, then what do I have to say…nothing.” THIEVES WILL ALWAYS THEIR FELLOW THIEF AT THE PERIL OF THEIR LIVES.

It is strange a past president of the Ghana Bar Association is saying "You are guilty until proven innocent". Sam Okudzeto is a disappointment.

Are they rather supposed to prove that they own their cars? I thought it is the alleger who provides the proof? So I can also say you've stolen my car and the onus will lie on you to prove your innocence, right?

That is not a valid argument. If it is ur car you should have prove of ownership. That's is why the law states that possession is 9/10th of ownership. Right now the car is with the taskforce so he should go with prove of ownership and claim it. Why is that so hard to do? Unless there is some funny business involved and the taskforce is right to investigate

What kind of stupid mentality is that. You are searching for your car you have proof to me the car is your property and not me. Who is supposed to proof what.

If you are the bonifide owner who bought it legally, it is easy to prove your ownership.Those who bought it through illegal means will argue contrary to Mr. Sam Okudzeto.

Sam Okudzeto did not sound like a lawyer in this case. He is been political. Where in his law books that the accuser is rather the one to prove ownership? Especially when the person already has a title to the vehicle.

It is rather odd for an eminent lawyer like Mr Sam Okudzeto to state that those accused should prove that they own such vehicles. I thought that it is the duty of the accuser to prove guilt and not the other way round. Politics rather makes people think in perverse ways. And, by the way, what was the Transition Team of the MPP doing if they failed to or were not given access to these cars and other properties as being claimed? Look at how these cowboys from the main parties are bleeding Ghana dry

The shenanigans behind the so-called stolen car saga is an indication that the government has no records on the ownership. If it did, it won't have to go round seizing peoples' vehicles without due process. The burden of proof is the government to show that contrary to others' claims, the state owns those vehicles. Because it lags the documents to show proper registration, the government has resorted to its current practice of seizing the vehicles and asking the owners to show proof of ownership.

The Government cars stealing syndicate by the NDC personnel must be dealt with the necessary force it deserves to recoup all to the Government vehicle pool in the Flag staff house to avoid further stringent action needs to be taken against certain personalities such as the former chief of staff,mr Debra, General secretary of the NDC Asiedu Nketia, Deputy Secretary General Koku Anyidoho,Okudjeto Ablakwa, Kwakye Ofosu and others.All the above mentioned suspects of the NDC must be held accountable for the missing of the vehicles and should be held to assist the police to find where the vehicles have been kept.

Govt must provide evidence from DVLA that the vehicle in dispute belongs to the state. It looks like most of our people just have big names to throw about but know nothing.

Why this big noise about cars NDC, just make vehicle documents available to government to claim ownership. Simple.

You haven't stolen government property, these are documents of propertie I have , legally and rightly acquired. Ghana will be behind you if you're molested. But if you fear to provide the right documentation, no sweat.
Stop the "too-much-ado-about-nothing" cry drum beat disturbing the eardrums of the Ghanaian, NDC.

In London where i live the police can stop and demand your identity in connection with your car at any time. how can you own a car for 4 years without transfer of documents. it is criminal. these are some of the cars which were confiscated from some poor burgers.Criminals.
