Former President John Mahama has expressed his disappointment and outrage over the loss of $190 million meant for private sector participation in electricity distribution under the US Millennium Compact. Apexnewsgh reports
In a Facebook post, Mahama attributed the loss to corrupt, ‘yenkyendi’ and cronyistic governance practices of the current administration led by President Nana Akufo-Addo and his Vice.
Mahama, who is gearing up for the 2024 elections, assured Ghanaians that he will prioritize accountability and work to enhance private sector efficiency in the electricity distribution system if elected. He also pledged a thorough investigation into the PDS scandal to hold those involved accountable.
The cancellation of the $190 million power compact under the Millennium Challenge Corporation compact for Ghana follows the PDS scandal, with the government taking no action against the identified persons involved in the scandal. Mahama passionately called on all Ghanaians to unite, stand together, and fight against the pervasive issues of corruption and cronyism.
He envisions a brighter future for Ghana’s power sector, a future that can only be built with the collective efforts of all. With the hashtags #LetsBuildGhanaTogether and #Mahama4Change2024, Mahama rallied support for his vision of building a better Ghana that all Ghanaians want, a vision he says includes every Ghanaian.
Mahama’s statement has sparked a renewed call to action against corruption and cronyism in Ghana, with many Ghanaians expressing their support for his vision of a more accountable and efficient government. As the 2024 elections approach, Mahama’s message of change and accountability is likely to resonate with many Ghanaians who are eager for a better future for their country.
