Koku Anyidoho has vowed to report former President John Mahama to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) over misappropriation of funds meant for the establishment of the Atta-Mills Presidential Library.
The founder of the Atta-Mills Institute and one time deputy General Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) stated on the Wontumi Morning Show that the government of former President Mahama lied to him and diverted moneys meant for the project.
“When we used to attend meeting they tell us not to worry and that we have got money for the project. We even became enemies because we were asking about the money meant for the project. But not knowing the ‘don’t worry replies’ they were giving to us anytime we asked where the funds were, was a sinister plot by them”, Mr. Anyidoho sadly said.
He praised the government of President Akufo-Addo for saving the situation and preventing the project from going waste. According to him, out of pity, the government of President Akufo-Addo through the Ghana Tourism Authorithy has contracted a contractor work on the Atta-Mills Presidential Library.
He blamed former President John Mahama for causing the Atta-Mills Presidential Library to rot before President Akufo-Addo decided to step in.
“After 7 years after the rot, the government is using another tax payers’ money to refurbish it. So where is the first money the committee which I was part of received? Where is the money? I will be going to EOCO; I will make a formal complaint to EOCO to investigate”, he vowed.
He warned members of the NDC not to tag him as someone who has hatred for Mr. John Mahama.
“They should come and tell me again that I hate Mahama that is why I have taken this action. Did Mahama create the world or did he christen me when I was born? When my parents were paying my school fees, did Mahama pay it? So just because I have joined a party and there is a leader called Mahama, I should sell my soul and honour to him? Tofiakwa!” he said.
