Former President John Dramani Mahama has described as “scandalous” monies said to have been stolen from the residence of the Minister for Water and Sanitation, Cecilia Abena Dapaah.
His comment, contained in a tweet, followed a publication by The Chronicle that the court had been told that the house help of Cecilia Abena Dapaah and her husband had stolen some huge sums of money from their bosses.
According to former President Mahama, granted that the money in different currencies was genuinely earned, it should not have been kept at home.
“Even if genuinely acquired, why keep millions of hard currencies at home?” he asked, and took a swipe at President Akufo-Addo, asking if he would “ever set a good example for public office holders in his administration?”
