Press Release
AFAG
December 17, 2015
Fire Minister of Energy &
Deputy AG on Ameri Scandal:Demo Inevitable!!
It is with pain that the Alliance for Accountable
Governance(AFAG) writes to express our utter disgust at
Ghana's worst contract of all times. We are disappointed in
the minister of energy(Dr Kwabena Donkor) and the deputy
attorney general(Hon Dominic Ayine) who signed and witnessed
this contract respectively.
The contract is ridiculous. It put all obligation on the
people of Ghana and at no cost to Ameri. Indeed the only
obligation of Ameri is the cost of transport from the port
to the installation site. The contract is not traditional of
BOOT where normally the private entity will invest, generate
returns and hand over appropriately when the period is due.
AFAG's legal team is studying bit by bit every provision in
the contract. We look forward to a serial explanation on the
contract to Ghanaians come January followed by mass actions.
This, notwithstanding, we are appalled by the parliamentary
scrutiny of the contract. Ghanaians have been short changed.
The level of corruption embedded in this worst contract of
all times is too worrisome. It simply does not make sense
for Ghanaians to be slapped with electricity tariff increase
over 60% only to uncover that we are been made to finance
rogue trading.
We can assure the good people of Ghana that, in spite of the
holidays ahead, this dastardly issue will not be made to
rest. Come January AFAG will hold a series of press
conferences and subsequently press forward for mass actions
across the the 10 regions of the country to get Ghanaians
informed about the effect of this scandal and the subsequent
action of the president.
Woyome's scandal is non-comparable to this Ameri energy
scandal. This is about 15Woyome. No way!
We call on the president to come clean on this issue with a
series of actions. On the immediate we expect the president
to fire the minister of energy and the deputy AG.
God save Ghana.Type a message
