The ndc is just full of rogues and thieves. Government must collect our diplomatic passports from these criminals. Before they perpetrate crimes around the world and bring shame to the nation. A word is enough to the wise!

Considering the fact that we the poor citizenry have to renew our passports every five years, despite being Ghanaians for life, I suggest diplomatic passports are made to last only during the parliamentary term only. This will make the passports redundant at the end of each parliament hence returning it or not will not be an issue

The embassies can issue them a visa all they like. However the immigration officals representing the Ghana Govt has the right to take away a can celled passport. Simple!

we joke with issues and waited until it become problematic, there must not be a grace period to tender it , it must be included in the handing over notes as a package because you seized to hold such a document the very day you hand over to the predecessor

all the names must be published, we need to make this practical not against JDM appointees alone, but whosever going out from service must not hold it even just a day.

The refusal of former gov't officials to hand over their diplomatic passports is yet another sign/ prove of how weak,corrupt, misguided and dishonest Mahamas gov't was.Just like the V8 cars saga they refuse to see the obvious and they always come up with unreasonable arguments.Arrest all of them if they want to travel with the passports.Everyday their behavior and utterances help make it clear to us that their defeat is the best thing to happen to Ghana in a century.Good riddance to bad rubbish

Damn you. Akuffo did not have any gov't vehicle. Even he was stopped and his own car he had before Kuffour's government was taken from him. Mills apologized for that but Akuffo refused to take the car back.
Akuffo was AG and ...

Akuffo was AG and minister for foreign affairs but but did not put up a house and did not buy any gov't property. Ask your dirty and stinking babies with sharp teeth where they got money to build those mansions. Ask ablakwa first and MOSQUITO too. Nsawam is not yet full.

W How is this newsworthy madam? All you need to do is to write to the previous diplomats and set them a deadline to surrender their diplomatic passports. Why should we the lay public be told about this if not deliberately designed to disgrace the NDC diplomats? This is bad diplomacy. I hope you don't cry when your time comes, which obviously will not be too long from now.

If this simple administrative procedure you cannot take, and resort to complaining publicly, what can you do as a foreign minister? I just don't understand what this wants to put across. May be incompetence.

I AGREE WITH MOST OF THE CONTRIBUTORS. MORE TALK AND LESS ACTION. CORRUPTION AT WHICHEVER LEVEL WILL STOP WHEN THE TOP IS COMPLETELY CLEANED UP. WHEN CEOS, DIRECTORS, MPS, AND MINISTERS START GOING TO JAIL, IT WILL PUT AN END TO CORRUPTION AT THE TOP. THAT WILL MAKE SUCH TOP OFFICIALS PAY ATTENTION TO THEIR SUBJECTS WORKING UNDER THEM. IF THIS IS NOT DONE AND SOCIETY STANDS WATCHING ALOOF WHILST PEOPLE AT THE TOP KEEP LOOTING, THESE TOP RANKING GUYS WILL FORGET ABOUT THEIR SUBJECTS AND WILL ALSO NOT CARE OR WORRY ABOUT WHATEVER EVILS THEIR SUBJECTS ARE DOING. CRACK THE WHIP MS. BOCHTWAY.
