The Chairman of the National Democratic Congress in the Eastern Region has asked the Nana Addo led administration to call to book the fraudulent actions of former Transport Minister, Dzifa Aku Attivor.
Mr. Bismark Tawiah Boateng has urged the incumbent government to look into the wasteful loss of millions of cedis under the leadership of the former minister.
Dzifa Attivor signed a contract to the tune of an astonishing GH¢3.6 million with Smarttys Management and Productions Ltd and the Ministry of Transport to brand 116 Metro Mass Transport (MMT) vehicles.

He also blamed such actions as the precursor of the short term of the NDC’s reign.

The New Patriotic Party is yet to set up a committee to probe the scandal since coming into power
