Member of Parliament (MP) for Tamale Central, Inusah Fuseini has disclosed that contrary to Martin Amidu’s claim that he has not been paid any emoluments since his role as Special Prosecutor, he drew salary directly from the Presidency.
Speaking on Joy FM concerning the resignation of Amidu, Inusah Fuseini said “for one whole year Martin Amidu was drawing salaries from the Presidency. Well, he draws salary, he draws salary from the office of the President.”
According to him the performance report available to Parliament indicated that “monies were released to the office of the Special Prosecutor from the office of the President in the first year of operation. And so when we asked why he was paid from the Presidency, they said because he was not on the GIFMIS, the only way he could get the money released to him was through the office of the President.”
