Minority MPs on the Parliament Nominating Committee have rejected President Akufo-Addo’s ministerial candidate for Food and Agriculture as false under oath.
Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto, according to the 13 members of the Committees, unilaterally canceled a horticulture contract with the Ghana Ports and Ports Authority on January 11, 2021, without authorization.
The repeal of the 2015 Export and Fruit Terminal Contract by GPHA could generate a judicial debt of 50 million dollars.
Citing other reasons for his rejection, the minority MPs said: “The nominee was very insincere with the Nominating Committee about his special relationship with the Director of AMG Company Limited, Ernest Appiah and the latter’s control of the fertilizer contracts awarded. by the Ministry “.
They say the nominee “was particularly rude, frankly condescending and offensively arrogant in his appearance on the committee, which is not the kind of attitude expected of public servants.”
