Mensah Thompson Executive Director, ASEPA
Pressure group Alliance for Social Equity and Public Accountability (ASEPA) has petitioned President Akufo-Addo to lunch an investigation into the PDS scandal.
According to ASEPA, eversince the scandal around the Power Distribution Services broke, they have written severally to the Minister for Energy requesting for an update on the scandal but their letters have not seen any response since 2019.
According to the pressure group, because their letters to the Ministry of Energy has not yielded any response, they decided to write to the President of the land, Nana Akufo Addo to take action on the issue.
Below is the Statement from ASEPA to President Nana Akufo Addo
PROSECUTE PDS GANG OR FORGET ELECTION 2020-ASEPA TO PRESIDENT AKUFO ADDO
It’s been well over a year now since the notorious PDS concessionaire arrangement was terminated because of a fraudulent demand guarantee and PDS’ inability to invest the needed capital into ECG.
A number of correspondence written to the Minister for Energy requesting an update on the PDS scandal has not seen any response since last year.
It has therefore become important for us to make our two key demands public.
1.That Government of Ghana cause PDS to account for every single penny they collected within the four months they were in charge of ECG.
2.That the people whose action and inaction resulted in this PDS debacle; ie
Ken Ofori-Attah ,Philip Ayensu,Keli Gadzekpo, Ing. Samuel Boakye Appiah,
K. Boating Aidoo, Boakye Agyarko,
Andrew Agyapa Mercer and several others be arrested immediately and prosecuted for causing financial loss to the State.President Akufo Addo must use the PDS scandal to re-energize his failed fight against corruption or forget about election 2020.
We shall call on Ghanaians to Vote Massively against President Akufo Addo if he fails to prosecute the PDS gang.
