The Ghana Minister of Foreign Affairs, Alhaji Mohammed Mumuni, will today [Tuesday] submit himself and his officials to a media drilling on the controversial US$500,000 expenditure made by his ministry as part of funeral expenses for some slain Ghanaians in The Gambia.
The Gambian government made available to Ghana an amount of US$500,000 to compensate the families of the deceased and to take care of their funerals.
The sector minister in Parliament last week made a summary presentation of the expenditure which raised a lot of eyebrows even from within the ruling NDC.
The Ghana Integrity Initiative and other anti-corruption institutions have called for a probe into the expenditure, a proposal that has been backed by the NDC propaganda secretary, Richard Quashigah.
Speaking to Citi News, Hon. Mumuni said today�s media encounter on the whole expenditure and compensation package for the families of the victims will clear the doubts in the minds of Ghanaians.
