Ghanaian MP Levels Shocking GHS5.7 Billion Accusation Against Finance Minister

Ghanaian Politics: MP Accuses Finance Minister of Hypocrisy, Alleging GHS5.7 Billion Misappropriation Ghana's political landscape is heating up after a scathing accusation from NPP MP for Oforikrom, Michael Akwasi Aidoo. In an interview with Channel One TV, Aidoo directly accused the Finance Minister of hypocrisy, alleging that the minister took GHS5.7 billion from Ghanaians. This follows the minister's previous claims that others had stolen GHS2 billion. "He Accused Others of Stealing GHS2bn, But He is Taking GHS5.7bn from Us," Aidoo stated, highlighting the perceived discrepancy. Aidoo further supported his claims by referencing specific power purchasing agreements and the controversial cedi levy, suggesting these were sources of the alleged misappropriation. The Finance Minister has yet to respond to these serious allegations. This situation underscores the ongoing debate surrounding financial transparency and accountability in Ghana's government. The impact of these accusations on the upcoming elections remains to be seen.
