Fixthecountry Conveynor, Oliver Barker-Vormawor has reacted to Togbe Afede’s letter explaining why he refunded the ex-gratia paid to his accounts to the government.
In a post shared on the official Facebook page of Oliver Baker on Tuesday, 7th June 2022, he wrote that he has just seen a letter by Togbe Afede explaining why he has decided to refund nearly 400,000 cedis into the public chest. He said he wish there were more Togbe Afede’s in the government instead of the entire space filled with Eugene Arhin’s, the PPA Boss and Sir John’s.
“I confirmed from the Council of State Secretariat that the sum of 365, 392.67 was paid into my account as ex-gratia. I thought the extra payment was inappropriate for the short, effectively part-time work, for which I received a monthly salary and was entitled to other privileges. So I was very uncomfortable with it.” Oliver Barker quoted from Togbe’s letter
The Fixthecountry Conveynor said that it is this life of integrity that we need in leadership; so it sets an example for young people.
“Now as much as I wish there were more Togbe Afede’s in Government, we know that instead the entire space is filled with Eugene Arhin’s, the PPA Boss and Sir John’s.” Oliver Barker wrote.
Article 71 is a blank Cheque we have given to the political class. It is a window for perpetrating an economic crime against the people of this country. You don’t amend the window, you close it shut!
According to Oliver, Ghana is producing disenchantment among public servants who slave their whole life away and yet retire on breadcrumbs. Are they not Ghanaians too? He quizzed.
