With just a day for a change in government, 41 brand new V8 engine Toyota Land Cruiser vehicles have arrived at the Tema Habour scheduled to be cleared by the outgoing Mahama-led National Democratic Congress (NDC) government.
The vehicles arrived at the Tema Habour four days ago, raising concerns about who may have imported them into the country at this time and for what purpose they were brought in.
Checks by DAILY GUIDE indicate that they were brought into the country by the outgoing NDC administration and a letter from the presidency, the Flagstaff House, had been issued for them to be cleared.
According to sources, Customs officers were confused as to whether the vehicles should be released or not since they are exempted from duty.
The officer-in-charge at the Port with the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), Assistant Commissioner, Confidence Nyadzi, told DAILY GUIDE that he was acting on instructions from the outgoing government until there is a counter directive.
What is not clear is the final destination of these vehicles, except the fact that an 'order from above' has been issued for them to be cleared.
It is also not certain whether the acquisition and subsequent importation of these high-powered V8 vehicles were included in the handing over notes of the outgoing government to the Transition Team of the incoming administration.
But there are talks of some government officials trying to convert ownership of certain state vehicles in their names, including utility vehicles like four-wheel drives.

So....you have all these questions and yet you failed to reach out to the appropriate government officials for some answers? If this what you call journalism, then my kid sister in primary 4 is qualified. This is a lazy and I think it is about time people who take up this profession astride to restore some dignity. How can you come, putting up a story as this....a story that certainly will get the whole nation interested, yet you have failed to reach to any government official for answers...except to use phrases like 'what is not clear is....' ' daily guide is not sure if....' You're not clear, you're not sure, yet you have put up the story out there.....If not for partisan mischief. MY GOODNESS!!!!! Do we not know heads of some selected public institutions and arms of government are provided with 4X4 vehicles every year. Director of GHA, Director of EPA, Director at the Chamber of mines, The chief justice, ETC. Lazy journalists are taking advantage of the uneducated and shallow thinkers like all those who're chastising the outgoing government here. This is unethical!!!

Stouupidd reportage. by this village NPP. So because there's change of government vehicles imported into the country shouldn't arrive. They should remain on the high seas. What makes you think Ghanaians will keep discussing Mahama all year round? You think we don't know why we opted for a change at this time. You think our thumps are cut off? Wait and se. Your exit will be more painful in case you think you're here to stay forever. You may not even last this year.
The incoming administration should take custody of the vehicles immediately.The NDC government would have sold Ghana if they had found their way back to power.They are ***barred word***.***barred word***.
NDC, Nocturnal Diabolic Creatures, they shall never come to power again. Mpanyin se adi daa na eye not adi preko. This is adi preko. That is their end. They are dismissed by Ghanaians for ever. Corruption, stealing, Ogyam Bye bye. May God replace your heritage with a responsible party.
Can a leopard change its skin? No way. So is the NDC Party. They represent Satan in Ghana. They are nation wreckers.
