Former President John Agyekum Kufuor may soon be hauled before the Bui Power Authority to account for his stewardship as the past Board Chairman of the authority.NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, threatened to sponsor the invitation if the NPP does not stop peddling what he says is falsehood about funding for the project.He made this known at a workshop being attended by NDC Regional Youth Organisers at the Local Government Training Centre at Madina, Accra.The workshop, which is being addressed by various party big wigs, is taking stock of the past year, and also aimed at enhancing the capacity of the youth leaders to map out strategies for the 2012 elections.Speaking on the 2011 Action year, Mr. Asiedu Nketia touched on a number of issues, key among which was the need for Government to source extra funding to complete the Bui City Project.Recently, the former Chief Executive of the Bui Hydro Energy Development Project, and a member of the NPP, Mr. Fred Oware, rejected claims that about $118 million is needed to complete the Bui City Project.This was after a Deputy Energy Minister, Inusah Fuseini made the announcement in Parliament on Wednesday February 9, saying the Kufuor administration did not set aside funds for the project.But Mr. Fred Oware, a Vice Chairman of the NPP, explained that funds were to be sourced from the private sector.These developments appear to have angered Mr. Asiedu Nketia who says the NPP is not being truthful with Ghanaians on funding processes for the Bui Dam and Bui City projects.Mr. Asiedu Nketia said if those “lies” being peddled by the NPP do not stop, he will sponsor the invitation of former President Kufuor to answer questions regarding funding for the project.He said his invitation will be premised on the fact that Mr. Kufuor was the former Board Chairman of the Bui Hydro Energy Development Project.Mr. Asiedu Nketia made a similar statement in August 2010, in an interview with Citi News.Government signed the contract with the Chinese engineering and procurement organization, Sinohydro in April 2007, to construct the dam that would add 400 megawatts of power to the national grid. The project commenced in April 2008.The construction of the Dam is costing the government of Ghana $60million out of the total project cost of $622m, largely funded by the Chinese government. It is expected to be completed and commissioned in December 2012.Source: Citifmonline.com
