A former Deputy Minister of Communication in the John Mahama administration, Felix Kwakye Ofosu has challenged Vice-President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia to support with evidence, his claim that members of the previous administration were corrupt.
According to him, both President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Dr Bawumia have thrown all manner of unsubstantiated allegations against the past government officials without proof. His comments come on the heels of a hint dropped by Dr Bawumia that corrupt officials who served in the Mahama administration will soon face prosecution.
The Vice-President said: “Ghanaians will find out more soon as people are held legally accountable.”
He made the comment in his response to former President Mahama’s accusation that he (Bawumia) brought President Akufo-Addo embarrassment by awarding a $2.5million contract to local IT firm Vokacom to develop a “419” application called GhanaPostGPS to be used for the national digital addressing system, when that same app was available on Google for free.
In his response, Dr Mahamudu said unlike the Mahama administration which was neck-deep in corruption, the Akufo-Addo government is above board.
He said Ghanaians will soon get to know more about the corruption that took place under the Mahama administration.
But in a Facebook post reacting to these comments, Mr Kwakye Ofosu said: “Vice-President Bawumia will find out soon enough that there is a world of difference between ignorant and propaganda-laden shouts of corruption and proving same.
“Does it not embarrass him that after claiming that the previous government printed presidential diaries at a cost of US$10 million, his boss has been unable to prove it 10 month into his government? Would he be kind enough to share with the Ghanaian public how much it cost to print the 2017 diaries?
“Also would he be kind enough to share with the Ghanaian public the evidence of the inflation of the cost of the Ridge Hospital as alleged by his boss?
“And if I may inquire, why has his Minister of Health so ignominiously embossed his name on a plaque at that hospital if it was the product of corruption?”

NPP you people should keep quiet, stop the talk talk and do the work, abaa
Mahama can never be a leader he speaks like their NDC communicators my request from Dr Bawumia is if this is the way he want to chose please leave him to NPP communicating team, this shows clearly that he was and not qualifier to be a President he is slowly killing himself from evenness and jealousy he need a Councillor else he will let people run him down
Ask Jerry Rawlings he will tell you you ndc guys are th.i.e.v.e. s.... I can just give you a few of your corrupt deals....bus branding, SADA, GYEDA, Wayome, SSNIT software, COCOBOD guest house in Bole, Vice presidential residence.... and many many many more.
Ofosu Kwakye, to prove to you how corrupt the NDC party is, kindly call on the founder of your own party, President Rawlings.
When the prosecution starts, may you not start crying "witch-hunting". Wherever there are witches, they must be hunted! The babies with sharp teeth are beginning to reel under pressure. Their evi*l deeds are hunting them now.
Hahahahahahahaha, where was this tw.at hiding? He's challenging Bawumia because they think they have done a good job hiding their tracks of loot. Alas you lie. These guys have forgotten that they are not that smart and that no matter what you did you left enough evidence. Just wait and see. Anyway, now John Ford Mahama is gone, its time for the crimi.nal band called NDC to go. #NDCMUSTGO, #NDCCRIMINALORGANISATIONMUSTGO, #JAILNDCNOW
OFOSU-KWAKYE DON'T WORRY IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME. I ONLY HOPE YOU WILL BE GOING TO COURT WHEN PROSECUTION STARTS, INSTEAD OF PRESS CONFERENCES.
I would have been very ashamed of my self you be ruled by babies with sharp teeth.
Pray that Special Prosecutor bill is never passed. That is my own advise to you.
your face even shows that you are corrupt.
