Looming Scandal at Ghana Gas over shady infrastructure Contracts

A brewing scandal within the Akufo-Addo government has cast a shadow of corruption over the Ghana Gas Company (GGC), sparking fear among its employees.

The company, already drowning in over $500 million debt owed it by government, is now facing allegations of shady dealings as a cartel of thieves attempt to push through a dubious contract for a major infrastructure project.

Former Energy Minister, John Abdulai Jinapor, has issued a stern warning to GGC CEO Ben Asante, cautioning against succumbing to pressure to sign the questionable contract behind Parliament’s back. Jinapor vowed that if the contract is signed, the next NDC government will not recognize its legitimacy.

Rumors swirl about the controversial contract, with reports suggesting foul play involving high-ranking officials and the submission of a plagiarized bid worth a staggering US$812,397,389.00.

Connections to individuals close to the government, including the son of the President’s Executive Secretary, have also raised eyebrows.

Jinapor revealed insider information indicating internal factions within the Akufo-Addo government vying for control over Ghana Gas resources, potentially leading to severe financial consequences for the state.

Parliament has initiated investigations to scrutinize the suspect contract and ensure transparency in the process.

As the scandal unfolds, Ghanaians are left questioning the integrity of their government and the future of a crucial national asset.
