Mahama Keeps Misinforming Ghanaians With Blatant Falsehood, Disregard Him – MASLOC CEO

 

The Chief Executive Officer of the Microfinance and Small Loans Centre (MASLOC), Stephen Amoah has chastised former President John Mahama for perpetually peddling falsehood about the Akufo-Addo government.

According to him, Mr. Mahama keeps misinforming Ghanaians with lies to pave way for his second coming saying it is about time Ghanaians disregarded him.

Speaking at a press conference in Kumasi, Mr. Amoah fumed about the lies of  Mr. Mahama about the procurement and disbursement of 100 GPRTU buses secured under the Mahama regime.

Setting the records straight, the MASLOC CEO emphasized that the Mahama reign procured the 33 – seater isuzu buses at the price of GHc 44,556,000.00 with 4cc engine capacity instead of 6cc.

Mr. Amoah noted that it was, however, the NPP government that had to pay the outrageous prices of the buses.

“It has been proven beyond doubt by both the GPRTU and MASLOC as key stakeholder institutions, that the prices of the said buses and other saloon cars were remarkably inflated,” he explained.

The MASLOC CEO reiterated that beside the specifications of the buses agreed between the GPRTU and the then NDC administration that were not adhered to, the GPRTU said the buses were sub – standard.

Mr. Amoah challenged former President Mahama to provide the list of the NPP Chairmen he has been misinforming the public of being beneficiaries of the said buses.

“These are some of the deceptive statements Mr Mahama has engrossed himself in all because he wants a come back,” he stated.

Mr Amoah said but for the visionary President Akufo-Addo, the buses would have been left to rot and a subsequent incurred cost to the state and by the courtesy of the NDC.

“A  meeting was held at the Presidency among MASLOC, GPRTU, Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Transport.The President then reduced the prices by about 52% to enable the GPRTU to procure the buses,” he revealed.

He noted that the GPRTU agreed to take only the buses since most of the small cars had already been procured by the public adding that 83 out of the 100 buses were taken by the GPRTU.

According to the MASLOC CEO, former President Mahama as a result of frustration and deception is using falsehood as an outmoded campaign tool to pave his way to rule Ghanaians again with his enormous incompetency.

Mr. Amoah urged the general public, GPRTU, the media and other stakeholders to treat Mr. Mahama’s assertion with all the contempt it deserves.

“Let me admonish Nananom, the religious bodies and other well-meaning Ghanaians to advise the former President against the use of propaganda and other utterances that have the potential to disturb the peace and tranquility we are already enjoying in Ghana,” he stressed.
