Baba Kamara’s Ambassadorial dream hangs in the balance
By Masahudu Ankiilu Kunateh, Ghanadot
Accra, Oct 8, Ghanadot - Baba Kamara, a former deputy treasurer
of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) accused of taking
bribes from the Mabey & Johnson, a UK construction firm has had
his ambassadorial dreams jolted, at least for now.
The ambassador designate for Nigeria was due to be given his
letters of credence but his name was struck out from a list of
would-be envoys.
Critics have linked government’s failure or refusal to provide
his letters of credence to the bribery allegations in which he
and some functionaries of the ruling NDC, past and serving, were
accused of inflating project prices undertaken in Ghana by a UK
construction firm, Mabey & Johnson in the 1990’s.
Sources at the Foreign Ministry have meanwhile explained that
Baba Kamara will be commissioned immediately the Nigerian
government approves his letters of agreement sent on his behalf
by the Ghanaian government.
Yet on the Mabey and Johnson case, the Attorney General, Mrs
Betty Mould Iddrisu who was dispatched to the UK for fact
finding by President Mills is due back in Ghana Wednesday night.
She has been tasked to conduct thorough investigations into the
allegations, and advise government accordingly.
Critics have vehemently argued for the resignation of the named
officials, pending the outcome of the investigations.
