Bawumia orchestrated PDS scam: he can’t claim incorruptibility – Antwi Sylvestin Ronald
The United Voice for Change Conviner, Mr Antwi Sylvestin Ronald, has confronted the flagbearer of the NPP, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, over his assertion of incorruptibility.
According to Mr Antwi Sylvestin Ronald accused Dr Bawumia of being deeply implicated in the PDS scandal, describing his involvement as “blatantly” corrupt.
Addressing a gathering at the Press center in Accra on Wednesday, May 12th. the Vice President emphasised his commitment to resolving national issues rather than seeking personal enrichment.
Dr. Bawumia cited his dedication to achieving this goal through digitalization initiatives as evidence of his incorruptibility.
“The politics must serve the nation. My passion is solving problems. My passion is helping the poor, vulnerable and disadvantaged in society. Accumulation of wealth is not and has never been my passion or ambition.
He alleged that Dr Bawumia was involved in the PDS scandal, suggesting that his actions were motivated by a desire to benefit his associates and allies.
“Bawumia’s role in the stinking PDS scandal, in which he personally watered down the requirement of a bank guarantee to an insurance guarantee, and changed it from a condition precedent to a condition subsequent shows he is corrupt.”
“All this was done by him to aid his cronies, some of whom are mere barbers, to expropriate the over GHS20 billion worth of assets of the ECG for themselves.”
“Ghana lost $2 billion dollars as a result of this scandal according to the United Voice for Change.
What is even sad is that till date, electricity bills totaling GHS1.5 billion that Ghanaians paid to PDS has not been refunded to the state.”
