A Communications Team Member of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has described the payment of $2 million for the newly launched Digital Property Address System as a “ripoff and fraudulent”.
To him, the smart phone application which is claimed by the developer as exclusive to Ghana and aimed at helping to revamp the ailing fortunes of Ghana Post is a ploy to line the pockets of “people who just want to make money because their party is in power”.
“...there are very serious issues with this application because this developer did not create it exclusively for Ghana. This APP has is already in existence and it’s called ‘asaasegps’ and the only changes he made to it are colors to that of the NPP”.
“And this is what we spent 150 billion old cedis on. Also, the APP is renamed ‘GhanaPostGPS’ and there is the claim that it is exclusive to Ghana but that is not true. I have friends in Nigeria and China using the APP and the evidence isn’t here,” Sammy Gyamfi said in UTV’s Saturday edition of "Adekye Nsroma".
Mr. Gyamfi who is also a student Lawyer could not understand how a government led by “the President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the the bunch of self acclaimed knowledgeable men be outwitted into buying such a fraudulent application”.
These observations come two days after the launch the National Digital Property Addressing System by the President at the Conference Centre in Accra.
President Akufo-Addo was full of admiration for the project and stated: “It has been a barrier to job creation. It is for this reason that we have, over the last 9 months, the period of my stay in office, taken bold steps to formalise the economy and the way we conduct our everyday activities, including the way government delivers services to citizens most in need”.
However, Sammy Gyamfi is of the conviction that the recycling of ‘asaasegps’ into ‘GhanaPostGPS’ smacks of fraud and further warned the developers of the application not to accept payment for the work since it would come with consequences.

You forget that this is to the benefit of Ghana people not just NPP or NDC ...so Your grain-size brain could not even imagine copying to the benefit of the People Ghana when we gave you the chance...Just a morooon
I thought these bunch of ***barred word*** would keep quite and allow Ghanaians to enjoy the fruits of their vote. Listen to them! Before exiting power early this years, they were scheming with SUBAH to once again dupe us to the tune of $50m on this same project, which is costing us ONLY GHC2M.Have they soon forgotten about the $4.2b Mobile Interproterbility project, which was stopped by this government and now repackaged now costs us GHC4m.
In this modern world, who invents the wheels, can the Wright Brothers claim ownership of airbus plane today, who has the ownership rights of the computer, Eiii NDC and their INCOMPETENCEEEE
Big trash
look at another first class moron talking.
I am neither NDC or NPP but i think this is Trash...why the hell didn't you guys do it then?..wasn't it so crucial an important aspect of the nation's developing plans that should have made it your priority?...arh any right authority out there who has the power to arrest this guy?..arrest him...
***barred word*** guy. The same developer of AsaaseGPS designed the GhanaPost GPS. ***barred word*** people. Research before you speak
so if it was there already why did your NDC guys introduce it then. Or you thought it wasnt necessary. Well NPP finds it necessary and they have launched it so where is this skin pain coming from?
Hmmm imagine this software came during NDC era, the would have inflated the figure by 2500 to 3000 percent. Even SSNIT software for 72 million dollars. As for NDC I don't know the reason why they should be given the mandate to rule this country again. Bunch of dubious and unserious people and very corrupt. If this young guy want to have a future in our body politics then he must be advised well concerning evil NDC.
still in comfortable lead. ndc c u in 3017
