President Mahama has to reveal a car gift dispenser to avoid the future scandal – Rev. Charles Owusu


The former head of monitoring the forest commission and the well -known Good Governance Advocate, Reverend Charles Owusu, asked President John Dramani Mahama to disclose the identity of people who recently given him a vehicle and warned that the lack of transparency could have an effect on the credibility of his administration.

Rev. Owusu spoke on ADOM FMS Dwaso NSEM on Tuesday and emphasized the president of receiving the gift, but emphasized that complete disclosure was necessary to avoid future accusations for inappropriateness.

Yes, the president made the gift public, but we should know the donors and the reasons for the gift so that the matter can be brought to rest.

Rev. Owusu said and added, “Otherwise, it risks to become a political scandal that can be used to shake it later“.

He questioned the timing and motivation behind the gesture.

What did the president do in five months that someone gives him a car? Was such a gift offered to him when he was opposed?

Rev. Owusu moved to previous controversy and referred to the notorious Ford expedition, which was given to the former President Mahama by a Burkinabe, Djibril Kanazoe, which triggered widespread criticism and suspicion of conflicts of interest.

We all saw how this story was going on, even though the message of the message in Burkina Faso was handed over. It still damaged the president's reputation.

He warned that similar allegations could occur if the matter is not clarified now.

What if the person who later gave the car gains a government contract? Even if they really deserve, people will say that they were rewarded because of the gift. That could reduce the integrity of the president.

According to Rev. Owusu, the state of President Mahama has entrusted with enormous responsibility, and the protection of the presidency against any form of suspicion or manipulation is of the utmost importance.

The whole country is in its hands. Do not let us allow his presidency to be destroyed by something that is as avoidable as an unknown gift, he advised.

He asked President Mahama to take a proactive steps to maintain public trust by naming the donors, stating the purpose and informed the public about the context and insisted that transparency will now prevent accusations and embarrassment later.
