I am writing this open letter to inform the Ghanaian press so that you can inform the good people of Ghana about the tyranny and criminal actions of (name withheld), THE AMBASSADOR OF THE REPUBLIC OF GHANA IN (country withheld). In sum, these are some of the things this so-called “Ambassador” does at post:
The first thing that he did as the Ambassador was to get into sexual affair with the Third Secretary (Confidential Secretary) at the Mission, an affair which is still on-going
He fired his Cook after few weeks in the country so that he can put the brother of the Confidential Secretary in his place even though the “In-Law” never prepared tea for him but gets full salary
He also fired Mission’s driver because he didn’t, in appropriate way, (bow to him) say “Good afternoon or good morning” He is only interested in lady friends visiting him from abroad each and every month, sometimes, two girlfriends visit within one month
Now some things about States funds or better to say, peoples money which he is wasting because he doesn’t have anything serious to do in his life. Within nine (9) nine months at post he incurred, among others, the following expenditures:
- 4 Plasma TVs for his Residency costing around €10,000
- He paid €1,150 for Cable TV. installation at his Residency, a service which normally will cost €70
- Artificial Christmas tree around €800
- Refurnishing of some pieces of furniture costing more than €10,000 plus dinning furniture set €11,000
- New Mercedes which he bought for Official use he is using for private purposes
- Rehabilitation of Official Residency over €50,000 and still incurring additional expenditures
- Hand woven carpets for his office and Residency each piece costing €2,000 Currently in the process of procuring curtains for his office and Residency estimated to cost some €30,000
- He appointed an official lady photographer whom Mission pays €150 each time she is going for a meeting or trip with him so he can have lots of pictures to showoff
- His mobile telephone bills every month costing more than €3,000, sometimes even higher and bills are paid by the Mission
- New Italian furniture set for his Residency and office, new office LCD TV, office computer around €20,000
- In a week he can spend €15,000 on irrelevant things so that he can impress and show people especially ladies that he is powerful and influential in Ghana
- Approximately up to now he has spent more than €250,000 (two hundred and fifty thousand euros) and keeps increasing by the day
- He is continuously jeopardizing human rights of local staff, and doesn’t have good relations with any one at his staff
- He doesn’t respect law, customs and traditions in this country as he forces staff to work up to 10pm, most times of the week. They are scared to tell him anything because they are afraid to be fired
- Express superiority and racial hatred against local population
- He canceled meeting with President of (country withheld) because of his private trip to London so he can meet with some girlfriend there.
- Still didn’t present credentials after many invitations from XXX Govt. and also from XXX authorities
Worse of all, this was his New Year’s message for all Embassy staff “I AM APPOINTED BY THE HEAD OF STATE AND THE GOVERNMENT OF GHANA, I HAVE DIRECT LINE WITH THE PRESIDENT AND ANY OF MINE ASSOCIATES WHO DOESN’T SUIT ME I CAN FIRE OR SEND BACK TO GHANA, ALL OF YOU, YOU ARE HIRED OR FIRED”
In Diplomatic circles and in Local Government he is already known for his character and that coupled xxxxxxxxxx, they are avoiding meetings with him. He is therefore redundant and doesn’t attend meetings and receptions for that matter.
“SI VIS MITTERE, MITTE GRATUM”
For decades students and diplomats who were in XXX created a good image and picture of Ghana and its people and now here is a man who is on the way to destroying all that; its about time the good People of Ghana stop that before he is officially declared PERSONNA NON GRATA.
A Stitch in time, it is said, saves nine!
