There is a saying that say'; A bird does not bear a crab' ; why Nana Addo has being the first culprit of these execessive travels ; the figures will prove this ; the question what did he achieve from all these travels ; the same applies to these ministers who just are on the look out for these talking shop conference invitation from abroad ; they travel in business class or first class ; instead of sleeping in hotels ; they go live with thier relatives and frineds abroad and reclaim the cash through the back door ; they attend irrelevant meetings and bring home nothing from these mettings ; the result is that their work is undone ; they fail to achieve nothing as ministers but the same ministers will turn round and blame the opposition party for not doing job ; frankly ; they all thiffs and KROOKS masquerading as politicians; Nana Addo should ban and scrutinise each travel abroad and also ban minister from these medical travels costing the state; these ministers fail to do their job because they know they will not need to use the medical services in Ghana because they will be flown abroad .
Is Mr. President part of this directive
Blakofe comes to mind
This is the fault of Gify Klenam, former CEO of GEPA. She was the worst of all the CEOs GEPA has ever had. She and her boyfriend Eric Twum has traveled 57 times out of the country honeymooning. And they traveled with the Business class all the time. Hopeless group of people.
Bad move
good move
The seat is getting hotter.
confused president...He should include himself
So what A-Plus said was true
@Osei you have described yourself.
