Pressure
Group Occupy Ghana is threatening to sue government if it fails to provide the
full report on investigations into the financial malfeasance among other
issues, at the National Youth Employment Program (NYEP) and the Ghana Youth
Employment and Entrepreneurial Development Agency (GYEEDA) in 14 days.
The group is also asking the Ministry of Employment and
Labour Relations which has carried out investigations into the operations of
the NYEP and GYEEDA to make their findings public.
The
Ministry and the Auditor General commissioned investigations into the
operations and transactions of two companies implicated in a financial
malfeasance, but the report on the investigation has not been made public.
A letter issued by the group and copied to the Attorney
General, Parliament, the Chief Justice among others asked the Ministry to
provide information on its findings.
“Kindly provide the information and documentation requested
herein within 14 days of the date of this letter, failing which we shall have
no other option but to commence legal proceedings against the republic,
represented by the Attorney-General, in the enforcement of our Constitutional
right to information.”
The group explained that their request is a first step
to ensuring that public funds used by the two companies in transacting their
businesses are fully repaid and recovered in a manner that is fair and
equitable to Ghana.
We won’t wait for Parliament – Ace Ankomah
Speaking on Eyewitness News, a leading member
of the group, Ace Ankomah justified their demands saying “we have the power to
compel monies that have been spent wrongfully to be restored to the state.
