Asamoah Gyamfi, a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) communications team is worried that the continued stay in office by Alfred Obeng Boateng will make the party a subject of mockery; and is therefore endorsing calls for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Ado to crack the whip.
On Asempa Fm’s Kukurantumi on Saturday, Asamoah Gyamfi observed that the scandal is indefensible and the more party communicators try to do damage controls, the more the muddy the waters indicating that he has since stopped trying to side with him.
“I have asked my party people not to speak for the MD because if we do that, it means we want to condone corruption in Government. We must guard against thing which could make our work difficult in 2020. We must show we have integrity and will protect it” he admonished party members.
According to him, the circumstances surrounding the entire scandal leave much to be desired reiterating his stance that the embattled Managing Director of the Bulk Oil Storage and Transport Company Limited (BOST) either resigns or be fired by the president who appointed him.
“If I were the president, I will ask the BOST MD to resign or I will sack him. He has gone contrary to the promises Akufo Addo made to save the public purse. We promised to put an end to sole sourcing but Alfred Obeng has done it so he must go. The president should not shield him or will be subject to mockery by the Ghanaian public” he added.
He expressed worry in the manner the entire matter is being handled coupled with the 8-member investigative body that has been constituted by the Energy Minister to look into it, stating that it is likely to make or break for the party in 2020
“The way the matter is being handled shows we want to hide something but we should not pamper him. We should treat the matter serious and not pamper MD Alfred Obeng”, he added.

What did the MD do right? Tell us. You are one of those girls who might be sleeping with these corrupt men.
nana addo must give ghana people food , job and monies . ghana people are starving, for the past 6 months now about 99% of ghana people are poor, mahama and his ministers have looted every cedis from ghana, nana must collect the monies or ghana people and workers will collect their monies, from gh people
What did the MD do wrong? Really? The oil was contaminated before he took office. All he did was approve a contract of a small portion of the oil which was supposed to be the first of such disbursement. People must get the facts before they open their mouths.
Reading most of the comment here, I get the impression that most people think there is a competition between ndc and npp. Because I don't understand why something wrong has been done yet people think it's okay. Either they are edicts or they just don't have brains. How can you condone robberyy of the state whether by ndc or npp. I don't get it. This is why politicians keep being corrupts, because there are so many fuuulls out there who would support them nothing how much corrupt they are.
Indeed the mahama administration was quite corrupt, but their corruption started about two years into his administration. Unfortunately, appointees of Nana addo have started their corruption too early. Probably, because they were dried in pocket while in opposition for a long time. They need to slow down. This is not what Nana addo promise. Tthieveryy is not a good thing for this nation.
Why would Nana Addo be mocked if he pampers BOST MD? The BOST MD has been in office for months less than that of the president, Nana Addo. You have no case, my brother.
WHO IS THIS ASAMOAH GYAMFI? YOU CAN GO TO HELL FOR ALL WE CARE. SII - LY YOU GO TELL THIS TO THE DOGS FOOO LISH TALK. GO AND FIRE HIM YOURSELF ***barred word***. AMONKYE LIKE YOU TAKE THE LEAD AND FIRE BEFORE NANA COMES.
It is our parliament which is being mocked because an NDC MP who is a self confessed bribe taker is still in there. These NDC th.i.e.v.es are shamelless people. Tell Avedzi and co to resign first for taking bribe from lotteries. They are embarrassment to parliament. They must return the bribe money back to lotteries and resign from parliament.
