  PROF. ADEI FIRES SALVOS!!!!! COURTESY: CLASSFMONLINE.COM ----- The various corruption allegations surfacing are proof that the Mahama administration was far more corrupt than previously thought, former Rector of the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA), Prof Stephen Adei has said at a Business Roundtable organised by Yamson and Associates in Accra on Wednesday, 31 May. “Do you know why many people want to be politicians? It’s because that is the quickest way to get rich in this country,” Prof Adei said, adding: “We are yet to know the facts because we are not the investigators but the types of things that are being revealed about the amount of corruption [are mind-boggling].” National Communication Authority graft So far three appointees of former President John Mahama are being investigated by the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) for allegedly diverting some $4million belonging to the National Communications Authority (NCA). The three appointees, according to Information Minister Mustapha Hamid, conspired with a private citizen to commit the act. The former Mahama appointees being investigated, as named by Mr Hamid in an interview with Joy FM’s Kojo Yankson on Wednesday, 24 May, include Mr Eugene Baffoe-Bonney, former Board Chairman of the NCA; Mr William Tevie, former Chief Executive Officer of the NCA; and Alhaji Osman, former Deputy National Security Coordinator. Their conspirator, according to Mr Hamid is one George Oppong. Mr Hamid said they engaged in the graft in connection with a contract between the Mahama administration and an Israeli company, NSO Group Technology Limited, in which the latter was to supply eavesdropping gadgets worth $6 million. The equipment were meant to help the government of Ghana monitor the calls of suspected terrorists. In the course of the transaction, Mr Hamid said a local agent – Infraloks Development Limited – charged $2million as facilitation fee, bringing the total amount to $8million. According to Mr Hamid, National Security, which did not have the funds for the equipment, allowed the NCA, which supervises the use of such equipment, to fund the project. The NCA top officials, he revealed, withdrew $4 million from the NCA’s kitty but gave only $1million to the Israeli firm. The surplus, according to Mr Hamid, was deposited into the personal accounts of Mr George Oppong, who fronted as an agent of Infraloks Development Ltd. He said Alhaji Osman orchestrated the entire deal. According to Mr Hamid, demands by the Israeli firm to be paid the $5 million balance after the Mahama administration lost power in the December 2016 elections prompted the new Akufo-Addo government to probe the transaction after which the graft was detected. Mr Hamid said: “They took $4 million from NCA accounts and paid $1 million to the Israeli company and then deposited $3 million in the accounts of the local agent, one Mr George Oppong, and proceeded to share the $3million among themselves.”

  All political leaders, chiefs and queenmothers: please start a campaign to stop lynchings in Ghana. Too many people are lynched on mere suspision. If your son goes out and comes back safe, thank God.

  He is the prime murderer because he organized the crime. and he insisted on his death. He could have done better. He should show all the rest who killed the young man. Especially the guy who used the big block on his head in the video. They must face capital punishment to deter others from this barbaric act. If this matter not handled well, Ghana will not see peace as the death of this young man is too painful and his blood cries for justice

  Kofi, so far, I have watched three videos. They all seem to be different. It appears this went on for a long period and I see different people hitting his head with blocks.
  
  In all these videos, I saw only one person trying to stop the carnage, as he was warned off by another person. This good Samaritan was wearing a green and orange muscle shirt. All others just stood around or had a hand in it.
  
  In each video, I could count at least a dozen people. So I ask how it is that so many are still walking around that town free.
  
  Now I have read that there is a woman involved, not just in giving him up for the gun, but actually participated?
  
  Sad!

  The truth is innocent blood has been spilt for too long, Mahamah is Jesus prototype to end the menace of lyching. If this guy was not an army officer, we would have taking it as an armed robber who had been lynched and rejoiced over it. But many lynched cases are false accusation. A suspects get lynched in Ghana. Wicked, barbaric and demonic behavior

  Taking a good look at him, one can only see that his actions has set him thinking and wishing he never should have gotten himself in this mess. But one thing he should note and any other person should also is that, he upon reporting himself to the police was not lynched but has been left alive and will be given a fair trial.Nobody around him has acted like an animal like they did to the poor Captain. This should be a deterrent to all who believe in mob justice....At least given a human being a chance to live no matter what the circumstances are.

  The person who made the video must also be apprehended. Was he part of the gang ? Did he try to call for help ?
