NDC’s Member of Parliament for Sagnarigu constituency, Alhaji A.B.A Fuseini has made some serious allegation of how a former Minister of State at the Office of the President, Rockson Bukari was forced to vacate his office after an alleged bribery exposé.
A visibly incensed Alhaji A.B.A Fuseini, vented his spleen on the Nana Addo-led government in an interview on NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’, accusing the current administration of using Northerners in his administration as ‘scapegoats’ to protect others.
He described as "crass" and illogical, the continued presence in office of the embattled former Executive-Secretary Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Charles Bissue after his role in a damaging galamsey fraud case.
“This government thinks we [Ghanaians] are fools to believe all the trash they are telling us . . .That man [Charles Bissue] is still in office, they didn't ask him to go. What he did is worse than Rockson Bukari . . . some other person they will carry him out of office because he is from the northern part of the country,” he alleged.
Listen to Alhaji A.B.A Fuseini’s interview…
Rockson Bukari’s exposé
Rockson Bukari was caught on tape trying to prevent the Starr FM Upper East region correspondent from publishing a damning story against a Chinese mining company when he was the Upper East regional minister.
Mr. Bukari allegedly tried bribing the journalist with GH¢5,000 cash in a brown envelope and a brand new motorbike to stop the story from going public.
The regional minister was reassigned to the presidency when the story first made waves in 2018, but after it resurfaced Mr Bukari who failed to convince Ghanaians that he was trying to make peace and not bribe the journalist has resigned.
Mr Charles Bisiw exposé
Award winning investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas presented visuals of the role played by Secretary to the Inter-ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Charles Cromwell Bissue in his undercover piece, ‘Galamsey Fraud’.
Mr. Bissue was among several others caught on camera by the Tiger Eye PI team stabbing government’s fight against illegal mining popularly known as ‘Galamsey’ in the back.
He has denied any wrongdoing and emphatically stated that “I have taken notice of the contents of the latest documentary by Tiger Eye P.I., titled ‘Galamsey Fraud.’ I would like to state, at the very outset, that I am innocent of the allegations leveled against me in the documentary, as I was not and have not been engaged in any acts of corruption, criminality or misconduct.”
But Anas in a post on Facebook, insist that the Presidential Staffer indeed abused his office as there are hard facts against him.
According to the undercover journalist, Mr. Bissue used his office to engage in bribery and corruption to enrich himself.
Despite calls on Mr. Bissue to resign, he is reportedly still at post.

ABSOLUTE N-0-N SENSE- WHAT DID WE SEE DURING THE MAHAMA REGIME
The inferiority complex among some of our brothers from the North is more serious than cancer... We need to help them overcome this complex otherwise they'd continue to pose a development and security threat to us...
Inferiority Complex is his major problem. He needs to pray for deliverance from such which had been haunting him for the many years he has been in the political domain.
I'm a proud Dagomba but sad to say that none of our MPs have ever say anything sensible for the people in the north. Except they agree with cr!m!nals in governments to scoop all the generosity of government to the people. in fact, this man in the 1980s spoke on the situation in South Africa and from his tone then, one thought he would have been a freedom fighter, philanthropist and a unifier, but without app0l0gy, his knowledge is even cruel to the Dagombas. Always d!v!s!ve, arr0gance, never constructive but to pull down and tear apart. So SO sad and patheti!c. Such people bring alot of sh@me and p@in to Dagbong. However, Honestly speaking, if you want respectful and kind people in Ghana and you bypass the Dagomba, it may become extremely difficult or impossible to get one better.
***barred word*** ***barred word*** MP. Village champion MP. You can only be an MP in that area. Don't develop your people and only take advantage of their ignorance. Allah is watching you. Gyimiiiee nkoaaaa, NDC.
Fuseini, since you have told us what transpired before he resigned can you also share with us why President Nana Addo appointed him though he's from the north. We are all Ghanaians but I wonder why such characters like Fuseini mostly associate with the NDC. Look at the characters like Sammy Gyamfi, Felix Kwakye, Sam George, Kofi Adams, Asiedu Nketia, Koku Anyidohu, Kwaku Boahen, Kobi Acheampong, Joshua Akamba, Suhuyini, Victor Smith, Fiifi Kuetey on and on
The promise to fight corruption is one of the reasons why Nana Addo was elected. Therefore this allegation is a serious one to play tribalism with. Is ABA Fuseini saying that if indeed Mr Bukari gave some money to bribe the Journalist, that is correct? What is wrong is wrong, period. This Fuseini guy has been in parliament for too long. Shame on you and Fuseini should be re-called from parliament. He condones crime
Who else will make such a statement, apart from ABA Fuseini? NDC elements will never learn from any lessons from the past. Their tribal politics has led them to no where!!!!!
Waaaa look. Why didn't you say same when others resigned? These are things that makes the NDC very unattractive to floating voters. To them lets throw dust into the eyes of the people but the very people are very wide awake to your appetite for falsehood and propaganda.
Such hate and tribal comments can inflame divisions and.....an ***barred word*** of an MP, Allah would punish you all. You wish the Northers remain divided so you continue your dirty political agenda. You are on the verge of losing your seat in 2020.
