Sipa Yankey: Ministerial position means nothing to me
Audrey Micah, Ghanadot
Accra, Oct 12, Ghanadot - The resigned Minister of Health, Dr
George Sipa Yankey has stated that his decision to resign from
his position is mainly to “fight” the Mabey and Johnson case and
also to ensure that the focus of the NDC government is not
derailed as a result of the Mabey and Johnson case.
“People want to use this case and use me to launch an attack
against Professor Mills and I want to deny them that
opportunity.”
Speaking on Citi FM, Dr. Yankey disclosed that a ministerial
position means nothing to him and for that matter his
resignation will not prevent him from contributing his dues to
the nation.
“Being a Minister means nothing to me, I live in
my own house and I have not even taken salary. It’s service to
my nation and I can render this service in any capacity and not
only in a Ministerial capacity.”
He has denied receiving any bribe from Mabey and
Johnson to influence the award of some bridge contracts in the
1980s and 1990s.
Mr. Sipa Yankey said, “They say they gave me
$10,000, in another document they said $10,500, in another
document, they said 15,000 pounds, so which is which? I have
never taken any bribe from anybody.
