National Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi has called for the prosecution of former minister for works and housing, Samuel Atta-Kyea for his role in the Saglemi housing saga.
his comes after the government charged former works and housing minister under the NDC administration, Collins Dauda for causing financial loss to the state.
Sammy Gyamfi believes Mr Duda is only being made a scape-goat because Atta Kyea also amended and restated the Works Agreement and effected payments of over $5.6 million to the contractor for the abandoning Saglemi project yet, neither Atta Akyea nor his Chief Director has been charged for any wrongdoing by the current government.
“And so assuming the lack of Parliamentary approval for the Works Agreement or a variation of same constitutes a crime, then why hasn’t Atta Akyea or his Chief Director been charged? Why this obscene selective application of the law?,” he quizzed on Joy FM.
