Is Prez Mahama really fighting corruption?

Saturday, 16 April 2016

Dr. Papa Kwesi Ndoum writes: Should our tax money be used to fund the NDC's political campaign?

 


Our President, John Dramani Mahama is off and about touring the ten regions, campaigning, touting his record, asking to be returned to office. Who is funding this campaign trip? Who decided to put the President in an Electoral Commission advertisement and why did he not see anything wrong with it? Who paid for it? There are advertisements on radio, tv, newspapers, social media about the "Transforming Lives" agenda of the NDC. Who is paying for them? Where did the money come
from? Why are ministers of state and government officials using official vehicles that belong to the state plus fuel to follow the President?
There is a difference between official duties of a President, Ministers of State and DCEs and political campaign activities that should be private and self-funded. Where is the Electoral Commission on this? When will we have this Commission probe how political parties fund their campaigns?
Those who cheat to come to power also cheat when they get the power.
