Former Member of Parliament (MP) for the Subin constituency in the Ashanti Region, Eugene Boakye Antwi, has slammed former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta over his continued absence from the country despite an ongoing state investigation against him.
In an interview with Oyerepa TV, Hon. Boakye Antwi said that, Ken Ofori Atta should return to Ghana and face the law if he is truly innocent.
According to him, Mr. Ken’s failure to return to the country and respond to the allegations is tarnishing the image of the NPP and making the general public feel that members of the New Patriotic Party are corrupt.
“Have you ever seen a political party leave government and its finance minister cannot be found? It has been one year since Kissi Agyebeng started mentioning Ken Ofori -Atta’s name. Do you know the damage that has caused the party? They have implanted in the minds of Ghanaians that the NPP are thieves, “he said.
Boakye Antwi stressed that , public funds belong to the people of Ghana and not for the government officials because they only serve as stewards of those resources.
