What Right Do Ghanaians Have To Probe Rebecca Akufo-Addo’s Account? – NPP’s Ama Daaku Quizzes
Member of the communications team of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Ellen Ama Daaku has rubbished calls from the Minority and section of the Ghanaian populace calling for probe into the accounts of first lady, Rebecca Akufo-Addo.
Speaking to Berla Mundi on the New Day, she said the first lady was simply unhappy about the reaction received on her allowances and therefore decided to refund it.
To her, the call by the minority to probe her account is baseless, insisting Ghanaians have not employed Mrs Akufo-Addo to go that far with her.
“What the First and the Second Ladies have been receiving all along are allowances that were agreed on and they have been paid that. Then we all go to the market and for Mrs Rebecca Akufo-Addo, per the tone of her letter, I don’t see anything arrogant about it, all I see is a lot of pain and she is uncomfortable with the sort of comments and personalisation of her and the Second Lady, they are uncomfortable with it. So she wants to return the money and she has returned the money, now that she has returned the money, what is our problem about paying interest and going into her account. What right do we have as Ghanaians to go into her account?” she quizzed.
She added “have we appointed her to any position? Have we employed her? Did we vote for her? I am asking all these questions because these are the questions we were asking her or reasons why she should even be receiving those allowances. It is her husband that we voted for, so right now that you want to go into her account, with what right?”
