National Organizer of the New Patriotic Party, John Boadu says the
Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) is the most corrupt
institution in Ghana.
John Boadu, alluding to the ineptitude of
the authorities of EOCO, decried their inability to hold thorough
investigations into corruptible practices by government officials.
Speaking
on Oman FM regarding the controversial judgment debt involving
businessman Alfred Agbesi Woyome and the Waterville & ISOFOTON saga,
John Boadu slammed the anti-corruption agency for failing to unearth
the truth in the judgment debt scandal.
“EOCO is one of the most
corrupt institutions ever because while there are problems and we’ve
asked you to hold investigations into it, the only thing it did was to
present an interim report. We don’t know when the final report will come
out,” he said.
He also took a swipe at President Mahama and the
ruling NDC government for their involvement in the scandal, saying "the
government is corrupt. It’s official.”
Buttressing his
assertions, the NPP Aspirant alluded to the failure of the Mahama
government to retrieve the sum of money which was illegally paid out to
Waterville and ISOFOTON as judgment debt.
He also disclosed that
prior to the elections last year, former Attorney General Martin Amidu,
who spearheaded actions in court to reclaim the monies from the two
companies, was arrested by the National Security under the cover of
darkness, for no apparent reason. This, he asserted, indicts the
government.
“Ask Martin Amidu that between on the 4th, on the
5th, on the 6th of December,the National Security personnel arrested him
for what?” That is where you’ll see that the government is corrupt.
It’s official.” he stated.
