Probe source of Chief of Staff’s “bribe” to Adwoa Safo – Asiedu Nketia

General Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Johnson Asiedu Nketia has called for a probe into monies paid by the Chief of Staff to the Minister of Gender, Women, Children and Social Protection.

Assin Central Member of Parliament Kennedy Agyapong in an interview on Accra-based Asaase Radio alleged that he was given an amount of 120,000 to be deposited into the Fidelity Bank Account of Adwoa Safo.

He said even after paying the amount, the Member of Parliament has still not appeared in Parliament to support the party passing the e-levy.

Reacting to the allegation by Kennedy Agyapong, Asiedu Nketia indicated that the probe should begin with investigating the currency the Member of Parliament was given to understand the amount of money that changed hands.

“There should be an investigation on what the money was meant for. We should know whether it was a bribe or it was the MP’s salary. We also need to know whether the Chief of Staff owed the MP money and she was paying her”.

He continued “we also need to know where the money is from. Is it from Maame Frema’s account and if it’s her personal fund, does she carry that amount of money to the office every day?”

Asiedu Nketia said it is worrying that an elected Member of Parliament should be paid such huge sums of money before she agrees to come to Parliament to do her work.

“What kind of corruption is this? This is why I say we should probe this because we want to know whether it was a loan or it was a bribe. If the government that is preaching a cashless system pays money in cash then it’s worrying.”

Asiedu Nketia said if the country was serious with the fight against corruption, anti-corruption agencies would have called the people involved by now and would have started dealing with them.

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them. Related Posts Quoting a Scripture from Matthew, Papa Shee mentioned that no one should refer to a man as his/her spiritual father because the word speaks against it.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed.
