The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) is demanding a probe into the car gift saga which President Mahama gave to the founder and leader of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP), Madam Veronica Asare Donkor, popularly known as Akua Donkor.
The outspoken politician stated on radio that President John Mahama had presented to her a mansion, located at Sakumono in Accra.
She said President Mahama gave her the two vehicles after the flagbearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom, took his Tundra vehicle from her.
She said the cars were brand new that she picked from the store.
But according to the Communications Director of the NPP, Nana Akomea, the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has been petitioned to investigate a the case.
He said President John Mahama has abused incumbency.
Speaking to Accra-based Kasapa FM on August 8, 2016, he said President Mahama is embezzling taxpayers’ money through numerous supposed job creation avenues, which do not benefit the youth of the country.
He indicated that, it will do President John Mahama a lot of good if he comes out to defend himself.
Akua Donkor’s revelation about the goodies that the president had presented to her is said to have angered several members of the NDC, who claim that the party had abandoned them after their efforts that helped the party to win the 2012 polls.
Madam Donkor explained that her house was gutted by an inferno and that upon learning about her predicament, President Mahama instantly gave her a plush mansion at Sakumono to stay in.
