Lawyer Foh Amoaning, a private legal practitioner has said, it was improper for the 3-member committee set up to review and investigate the Ameri deal to accept a sponsorship package from the same firm they investigated.
The Minority at a press conference addressed by the former Power Minister, Kwabena Donkor under the Mahama administration alleged that, the Philip Addison committee had their plane tickets and hotel bills paid by Ameri when they traveled outside the country as part of their investigative work.
Kwabena Donkor at the press conference quizzed: ‘’We want to ask; who paid for their tickets, who paid for their hotel accommodation? We have the evidence that Ameri energy paid for the hotel that they used, paid for their tickets.
“If you’re going to investigate someone, do they pay for your accommodation and host you? We are in a country of law, our side will not want to see an energy sector divided between NDC and NPP and therefore they should be candid with us’’
Responding to the allegation on Nyankonton Mu Nsem on Rainbow Radio 87.5Fm, the lawyer said, the committee shouldn’t have taken anything from a company there were investigating if the allegation by the Minority, was factual or true.
‘’In my honest opinion, the committee shouldn’t have taken anything from the company they were investigating. Government should have paid for the tickets and other expenses for the committee.
That is unethical. In his view, accepting the sponsorship may comprise the final decision or recommendation by the committee.
‘’Justice must not only be seen to be done but must be seen manifesting to be done.
Those watching you must have confidence in your work. They should see fairness, firmness.They should also see you deliver on your work without fear nor favour.’’

Nana Addo 1 , Nana Addo 2, Nana Addo ,,,,,,,,,,,,,. Fear dis now oooooooo. The Ghanaians who called Nkrumah the "show boy" , they are the same Ghanaians of tuday ooooooooo
I am shocked the Govt machinery has been silent on the this matter.so indeed it happened that you accepted favours from an alleged fraudulent company under your investigation haaaaaaaah? and alll these ppl were allowed to stand election. No wonder we lost the 2012 court matter on the election. See man and jaws
@pilolo; VERY GOOD POINT !!!!!!!; HOW CAN YOU RENEGOTIATE A FRAUD BECAUSE A FRAUD IS A FRAUD AND ONCE INDENTIFIED MUST BE PROSECUTED !!!!; DO OUR LAWYER POLITICIANS UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY LEARNT AT LAW SCHOOL !!!!!!!THIS IS INSANE !!!!; ALL THESE POLITICIANS ARE ILLITERATE EDUCATED LAWYERS WITH DELIBERATE AIM TO STEEL FROM GHANAIANS AND JUST PLAYING WITH OUR 'BALLS' ; THEY ARE ALL LAWYER STEELERS AND LIARS MASQUERADING AS POLITICIANS.
There is nothing like ethics in the NPPigs' lexicon. They know only money.
As for some of you pilolo does not understand you at all. How can you say they found them to be fraudulent so the committee did a good job . If you can read and understand they said even though the deal is fraudulent they shd renegotiate. How can you renegotiate fraud? The deal is dirty instead, of naming those involved and getting them prosecuted (or we getting our money back) they have collected chobo (bride) and are protecting people who have stolen our money. Addison just recouped the money he lost during the campaign. Kr..onfo
Ghanaians are curse of bribing.. One thing u must notice is that GIFTS are bribe. Period. Ask Mr Addison if this is rite as a Lawyer. They are all corrupt.
let us give them time to sort things out folks
Massa;to me Nana Addo should be ASHAMED OF himself as a President and as a lawyer for condoning such DISGRACEFULL ACT OF CORRUTION BY ADDISON because only yeterday we hhave the UMB bank comming to see Nana Addo to bribe him with the provision of providing $100million line of credit by a bnak owened by the Jon Mahama family and Nana Addo etertains them ; IS NANA ADDDO ALSO CORRUPT !!!!!!OR HAS HE BEING BITTEN BY THE EBOLA VIRUS of corruption ; BESIDES NANA ADDO IS THAT HOW YOU INTEND TO GOVERN GHANA STARTING WITH CORRUPT 'RATS' masqurading as politions IN THE CLOSET ? !!!!!!; because it is beginning to dawn on some of us that the warning Ken Agyepong gave is comming to pass; THERE ARE SOME NPP members who are just comming to still and rape the country AGAIN !!!!!!!CAN'T THE GOVERNMENT OF GHANA AFFORD A PLANE TICKET AND ACCOMODATION ; Nana Addo should call this arrogant Bas.......d ADDISSON and son of a kriminal to order that NPP are not in government to steel because we have just got rid of a team of kriminal species by way of the NDC and Jon Mahama ; how on earth does a person in the name of Addisson make logic of this ; a lawyer who thinks and takes a bribe or gift from a kriminal he is investigating ; is it the right thing to do ; IS THIS ADDISON out of his mind !!!!!!! WHY DOES ADDISSON WISH TO DISGRACE NANA ADDO SO EARLY ;to me Nana Addo should take a closer look some of these ministers AGAIN !!!!!!because a number of them have kriminal minds ; this guy Womtumi is another dodgy guy Nana Adddo should watch; the energy minister he should watch ; if within a 100days these NPP kriminal minded people have started taking plane tickets as giofts ;then Ghanaians shudder to think what shall happen in 6 months time ; to me GHANA IS IN THE MIDST OF COLLASPSE !!!!!!WITH GALAMASEY AND THE START OF CORRUPTION BY NPP; NANA ADDO WE ALL KNOW YOUR AIM WAS TO BE A PRESIDENT AS YOUR FATHER BUT CONDONING CORRUPTION AMONGST YOUR MIDST LIKE JON MAHAMA IS NOT ACCEPTABLE IN YOUR GOVERNMENT.
AWO NOKOFIO!!!!!!!!I GUESS THEY GAVE THEM POCKET MONEY TOO.CHEAP....CHEAP....CHEAP MEN.
