Former Special Prosecutor, Martin Amidu has hit back again at President Akufo-Addo days after his resignation was received.

n a 27-page response to allegations levelled against him from the presidency, Mr Amidu accused President Akufo-Addo of being the kingpin of corruption.

“I resigned my position as the Special Prosecutor because of the traumatic experience I suffered from the reaction of the President who breached his Presidential oath by unlawfully obstructing me from taking any further steps on the Agyapa Royalties Transactions from 20th October 2020 to 1 November 2020.”

“When I met the President on 23rd October 2020, I received the shock of my life when he demanded that I took no further action on the Agyapa royalties transaction anti-corruption assessment report for another week. That was when it was divinely revealed to me that the President whom I trusted so much for integrity only looked like the innocent flower of anti-corruption but he was really the mother corruption serpent under the innocent-looking flower,” he added.

An American businessman, Claude D Convisser has exposed some government officials who allegedly demanded bribes from him when he endeavoured to set up a business in the country.

According to Mr Convisser, these government officials, including a secretary of a parliamentary candidate, kept demanding bribes from him.

Speaking on Star FM on Friday morning, he said; “We haven’t paid bribes and I must say I’m a very stubborn investor even though you have people in government who keep asking how much is in for them. Eight to ten officials in this administration have demanded bribes from me”.

Mr Convisser reportedly applied to set up a soy and vegetable factory in Zugu, a community in the Yendi Municipality of Ghana under the 1D1F to meet the protein and vitamin needs of the Ghana School Feeding Program in the Northern region.

His company, if set up, would have been able to employ about 30,000 farmers and supply to the GSFP at a lower cost but according to him, authorities have frustrated him and are unwilling to grant him a letter of intent to enable him secure funds from his sponsors.

The Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has expressed his shock by claims from the NDC and its leadership that it started free SHS.

At a public engagement forum on Thursday, November 26, to make a case for the NPP’s “4MoreToDoMore” mantra ahead of the 2020 elections, Dr. Bawumia mocked the NDC for being confused.

He accused the NDC of running 40 commercials against the NPP’s much talked about free senior high school programme.

Dr. Bawumia said, “they said it was a hoax, a 419 promise. They said if he had GH¢2billion they would not spend it on free SHS. They said free SHS would collapse the education system.

“The NDC run over 40 adverts against free SHS. But the visionary Nana Akufo-Addo stuck to his guns and has successfully implemented the free SHS policy.

He added, “today, the NDC is saying they started free SHS! “Awurade Nyankopon!”
