Since May last year when in the true spirit of Parliamentary oversight and an onerous duty to check reckless dissipation of scarce taxpayer funds, I began to track and publish all of President Akufo-Addo’s profligate travels by ultra-luxury chartered jets, not a single exposé has been challenged or impeached till this day.

We Vandals say: Truth Stands.

I even went as far as to offer Ministers of Defence, Finance & National Security the opportunity to refute or discredit my findings in Parliament through the urgent questions I filed which were duly admitted by Mr. Speaker but all the Ministers literally run from the unassailable truth, choosing rather to seek refuge under the shady cloak of national security in a shamefully desperate effort to avoid transparency and accountability.

I provide highlights of 13-months of unimpeachable, unchallengeable and irreproachable tracking publications below:

A conservatively estimated total cost of Akufo-Addo’s obscenely lavish chartered trips over the last 13-months which has been paid for by the suffering Ghanaian taxpayer works out to a staggering GHS34million.

This GHS34million could have been saved because Ghana possesses a functioning Presidential Jet in great condition.

No President in Ghana’s entire history, including ironically those who didn’t make a public pledge to protect the public purse did this to our country.

The rape of the public purse must stop and that is why I am glad to announce that I have led a dedicated team to draft a Private Member’s Bill to regulate Presidential Travels in Ghana. I hope we shall be successful so that no future president regardless of which political party platform brought them to power would have the unfettered discretion to subject national coffers to such an unconscionable assault.

May God help us. 🙏🏽
