Nana Agyenim Boateng, the founder and leader of the United Front Party (UFP), has called for the immediate dissolution of the National Service Scheme (NSS)’s Governing Board.
In his view, even the Chairperson of the Board, Mrs. Gifty Mahama Biyira, should have been picked up by the Bureau of National Investigations (BNI) for her “commission or omission”.
“…President Mahama must dissolve the National Service Board and not engage in any family affair because of Gifty Mahama”, he told Okay FM’s ‘Ade Akyi Abia’ on Tuesday.
“She cannot say she is not in the know as far as the rot at the NSS is concerned, especially considering her role in the steady progression of people like Alhaji Alhasan Imoro. When she was the Metro Director of Tamale, Alhaji Imoro was the District Director.”
According to Mr. Agyenim Boateng, his call for the dissolution is backed by information he has gathered which suggests that some workers are being dismissed by the Board while the BNI’s investigation is still ongoing. This, he said, shows that all is not well with the board.
The Governing Board of the Ghana National Service Scheme on Friday, 3rd October, 2014, directed that the Executive Director of the Scheme, Alhaji Alhassan Imoro and his two deputies step aside in order to pave the way for the ongoing investigation by the BNI.
Mr. Fiifi Asubonteng, the Director of IT, Mr. Alhassan Iddrisu, the director, PPME, the Acting Internal Auditor, Gloria Aku Mensah and all other officers of the Scheme whose names have been cited in the ongoing investigations were also withdrawn from their positions.
However, the Founder and Leader of the UFP insists on the immediate arrest of the board’s chair for her supervisory role over a charade to steal from the State.
