The NDC has called for the immediate arrest and prosecution of suspended Public Procurement Authority Boss.
Addressing the press Wednesday, Communication Officer of the party, Sammy Gyamfi, said the suspension of Adjenim Boateng Adjei is an attempt to shield government officials involved in the infamous ‘Contract for sale’ scandal that has hit the Procurement Authority, Joy News’ Parker Wilson reported.
The press conference follows investigations by freelance journalist, Manasseh Azure Awuni, which revealed that Talent Discovery Limited (TDL), a company incorporated in June 2017, won a number of government contracts through restrictive tendering at the time he was the PPA boss.
The investigative piece which aired on Joy News showed further that of the two directors and shareholders of TDL, one is the CEO of the PPA, Adjenim Boateng Adjei.
The President subsequently directed the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), and Office of the Special Prosecutor, to investigate allegations of conflict of interest leveled against Mr. Adjenim Boateng Adjei.
NDC’s press statement is posted below in full.
