I think it is time that dubious Lebanese-transplant was shipped off to the Bakka Valley in Lebanon, where he belongs! Was this not the same imbecile, who made all manner of wild, and spurious allegations against out-going Pres. Mahama and the Manhyia Palace? And why on earth is this 'parasite' being entertained in the new corridors of power?
Someone needs to tell this guy that Ghanaians did not vote out the NDC administration, to install a 'chop-Ghana-small' clique; that 'stupid' era is gone for ever!

Dear reader, for those of us at the Ghana Institute for Governance and Security (GIGS) and the Fair-Trade Oil Share Ghana (FTOS-Gh/PSA) Campaign, who, warned Mr. Mahama and his NDC party that the predatory oil contract system they've used over the past 5 years for Ghana's oil have caused a loss of more than $6 billion in oil revenues to Ghana, the recent online antics by NPP propagandist, Fadi Dabboussi, is not only amusing, it is quickly getting to be a disgrace on the record-to-be of Akufo-Addo's in-coming government.

Yes, we said all that, and will even have more for Serious Akufo Addo.

Next time, use your own name/moniker, Moniker-Thief-Thief.

And we are heckled by these pathetic nobodies and twerps from the ranks of the NPP. I am so saddened that we have the party of this twerps in power. They won't have it easy with this kind of attitude.

Look, we don't brag, as we are the real thing. Yes, the real McCoy. We don't kowtow to anybody, as we are no ones hirelings.

If Fadi is serious, he should address the more serious issue of the kind of contracts the FOCs are getting, instead of trying to grab a contract from another company, the kind of things Kufuor did that led to unwholesome judgement debts.

His unsupported claim of Saeed Sinare stealing furniture has already been rebutted. Where is the proof otherwise?

You want the best deal for Ghana,and so do Fadi Dabbousi.If Nana Addo has to choose between you and Fadi as to who should be his gate-keeper I confident he'll choose the latter,not you.Fadi Dabbousi has been defending and fighting for Nana Addo and the NPP long before you decided to become Nana Addo's freelance advicer.

The furniture collector is even more patriotic than you are.

It is regrettable for Prof. Lungu to attack the effort of Fadi as he also wants something good for the country. The revelations being brought out by Fadi cannot be swept under the carpet. They are serious issues that can be investigated by the special prosecutor. We should all encourage Fadi to continue to reveal more of the dubious deals of the Mahama government and his cronies. On this note I will urge Fadi to bring out the next issue as we all concerned citizens are waiting to hear. Please Fadi, ignore the detractors like Lungu and do what you are doing to help mother Ghana.

Why have you reduced the whole article to your level? Simply because you saw gate-keeper you assume it's about Nana Addo choosing someone for that position? You think Fadi has anymore right now Ghana than Dele Momodu? If Momodu is wrong, so is Fadi. They both ain't Ghanaian and can't be more patriotic than Prof. Lungu.

Such Utter Nonsense by an NDC apologist still smarting from the pain of the crushing electoral defeat. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Is furniture collecting a thing to be ashamed of? Is Nana in power yet? Is Nana Addo in power yet. Isnt recovering stolen state furniture important? Your logic is baffling for its tardiness. Give way!! There's a new administration coming in on 7th Jan. used to that fact in the next 4 days

Btw, where was this 'leech', when a departing Speaker of Parliament, stripped the Speaker's Official Residence bare and 'naked'?

gyidie,
Thanks greatly for your "Vote of Confidence" this New Year, 2017.

Surely, we are not saying if someone takes public property without authority and uses it for their own purposes, that the person ought to be left alone.

But, we ought to deal with major things, and avoid "minor" distractions.

You see, we (the members of the Fair-Trade Oil Share Ghana (FTOS-Gh/PSA) Campaign, were pleasantly surprised with the seriousness of Fadi Dabboussi's first essay on the Tullow oil contracts.

Any person can go back and read the comments we left on that essay.

However, Fadi's last 2 papers are telling us he is really not interested in big things and ideas that have better capacity to help Ghana build institutions (like reforming the entire oil contracts system to that Ghana will begin to receive a lot better than the 17% Ghana has received during the last 5 years).

That is all we are saying.

In addition, all of us need to make sure we do not buy into political party propaganda. Fadi's last 2 articles, reek of that "machine" stench.

This is 2017!

Greetings.

I can't agree with you more!

Prof Lungu is a more serious writer on policy issues than Fadi. Prof Lungu is not partisan either.

Thanks for pointing that out.

As we say in the paper, even if Tullow and some contractors are padding costs, it is not a cost to Ghana until Tullow (and KOSMOS) present it as part of the end of year Work Plan and Report on costs, that the government, through appropriate channels will vet and approve/disapprove.

The fact that a person or entity is masquerading as another entity and doing business because of nepotism (and corruption) is a function of the existing contract system for Ghana's oil and gas, the so-called Ghana Hybrid System, which, as we've noted more than 10 times is a legacy of Fadi Dabbousi's NPP party.

Why is Fadi wasting our time on the minor, on $10,000 furniture and $25,000 "padded" super-minor contracts?

Talking about "reek".

From the tone and centent, Fadi Dabbousi's latest papers reek of an attempted shake-down of Tullow, in plain sight!

Greetings and wishing you and your family a very successful and Happy New Year, 2017.

Peace!

Prof L,

Thanks to Prof L for his speedy response to Fadi, as it was becoming clear his quest was simply for they in the NPP to get on the oily gravy train in order to pick some fat, juicy crumbs too. In the oil sector, crumbs can be worth millions of $$$s! I thus realised he was going to be a distraction from the bigger picture and thus queried him on his last article. The NPP hoodlums, as to be expected, responded by hauling insults at me.

We can't allow our campaign for justice and fair share for all Ghanaians be derailed by self-seekers.

Interesting, both articles of his and comments so far have disappeared from Ghanaweb with the comments. Has he been greased already by the oil cartel or ordered by the new kings in town to cool it off? Remember, Afenyo-Markin got as much as $400000 from ADB interested sources as "shut-up money". We shall see how this quest by Fadi also unfold.
