But the man is making bost earn a lot of profit. I read yesterday that Bost made $21 million for the first half of this year. He seems to be a good manager once he is making profit and should be made to handle TOR as well once he can make profit there.

Mr. Kwabena Asante, how can one person be a full time employee in two separate organisations? It's an absolute contravention of corporate governance practice. This can only be practised in Mahama-led NDC administration. He Mr. Awuah-Darko, as an active practitioner of corporate governance should have known better and advised the president.

Two of the most corrupt institutions Ghana has to offer. Now, kick backs are surely going everywhere.

Does this man know anything about oil refineries? Or is it the new principle to appoint only clueless people at the top of SOEs? Just what happened with all the latest ministers. Reshuffling incompetence.

Workers of the company pointed out that under the deal, BOST paid TSL a total of $56,170.21 every month for 12 months as management fees with an additional payment of $594,000 every month for 12 months each year to cater for reimbursable.

Another deal was the expenditure of over $1 million for a new office accommodation, a one-floor building, which costs $43,400 a month at Dzowulu in Accra for two years, compared to BOST’s previous spacious office at the airport residential area, which costs only $13,000 a month.

THIS IS NO NEWS ABOUT GHANA'S GLOBE-TROTTING CORRUPT LEADERS.

GHANAIANS HAVE SO SOON FORGOTTEN THAT THAT'S HOW GHANA AIRWAYS, GHANA INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES, STATE CONSTRUCTION CORPORATION AND THE REST OF ALL OF NKRUMAH'S STRATEGIC STATE INSTITUTIONS WERE TOTALLY RUN DOWN BY GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE CORRUPT GLOBE-TROTTING VISIONLESS LEADERS.

GHANAIANS HAVE SOON FORGOTTEN THAT'S HOW KUFUOR, ATTA-MILLS AND MAHAMA BECAME GLOBE-TROTTERS AT GHANA'S TAX PAYERS' EXPENSE RATHER THAN WORKING AS PRESIDENTS OF GHANA.

AND WHEN RAWLINGS MARCHED SOME OF THESE WICKED EX-LEADERS TO THE TESHIE MILITARY RANGE AND SHOT THEIR BRAINS OUT, MANY WERE THOSE WHO HATED AND STILL HATES RAWLINGS FOR THAT.

THAT'S WHAT GHANA'S LEADERS DESERVE!!!

INDEED, GHANAIANS ARE THEIR OWN ENEMIES!!

HE IS GENERATING ALL OF THIS REVENUE AND GHANA CANT PAY ITS DOCTORS WELL?

WHEN WAMPAH STARTED PUMPING US$20 MILLION A DAY YOU GUYS DID NOT SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT.

God Bless Kwame Awuah-Darko for resuscitating BOST. I pray he does same with TOR.

My Uncle has been working there since 2003. He is highly of Praise for the MD for his business acumen and integrity.

You could not tell us which law specifically his holding the said positions breached. Wouldn't you help yourself by letting us know the specific law he breached or that which the president might have breached?

There's no significant difference between BOST and TOR because the latter produces what the former stores. Mr. Awuah Darko so far performed beyong expectation at BOST and we need same commitment and expertise from him to strategically revive TOR. So far, BOST has realised about $21m profit, making it one of the best, if not the best performing state run agencies. There's nothing wrong with the decision to let him manage both.

This article completely lacks substance and it's clearly borne outta bad Faith, jealousy, inferiority instinct and a Pull Him Down ailment. We all read the appointment and it categorically says the Gentleman was to act whiles the substantive is appointed. Were there not cases where a Minister is assigned to manage another ministry in addition to his whiles another person is appointed? Like I said, this article is sick and deserves to be warged into the dustbin. It's clear the man was recommended for the additional responsibility solely because of his competence and the trust to restructure TOR.

I have come to believe how filthy corruption Journos have become. It's evidently clear that the Author of this envious-inclined article got his ass and skull bought by those Cartels who wanted to bring this country to a halt because of the unreseanable profit from the Oil they import which in recent past have dropped like a rocket. At least the President knows and appreciate the good work of this man.

Concocted Story.
Which lawyer quoted which law to arrive at a breach of procedure or a violation of the Ghanaian law????
This is a poor piece of work from a poor mercenary journalist.
Which corporate governance expert did the journalist speak to???? Arm Chair Journalism.
No source spoken to.
A figment of the imagination of a weak journalist.

It appears Nana Addo and his media bought stomach journalists have lost hope in the failed "competent sleeper" of a Nana Addo hence have resorted to attacking NDC appointees who are excelling and projecting the NDC's socialist ideology!

They better go and re-school Akuffo Addo and his kenkey economist of Bawumia and his Akiola Maths & Econs!

Anyone who rises against the John Mahama govt would be exposed not by humans but by divine forces!

Mark it anywhere! Go an ask Franklin Cudjoe and his Imani Goro Boys!

You coward on a smear mission. No substance. First of all this article goes to accuse Mr Darko of nothing. Just cynical smear. Such is the cowardice of the writer. Confidentiality is a normal thing in corporate governance. Otherwise competitive advantage would be compromised. Yet you turn up here to write this junk? Your ignorance is quite severe. Do you think that if there were any laws preventing his appointment the President would have done so? Or you think that the President is as empty as Akuffo Addo? You speak like BOST and TOR operate a one man show. How dangerous can your corporate illiteracy be? U write verbiage just to denigrate someone. Excuse us.

Truth will always stand. Which BOST employees are complaining about Awuah Darko's performance? Is it the ordinary employee who now has hope and believe in the sustainable growth of BOST , or the greedy and fraudulent managers who connived with some state wreckers to rundown BOST for their own selfish interests? What Awuah Darko has done for BOST, he will do the same for TOR! #Truth stands.
