A
member of the Government’s Communication Team says there is nothing
wrong in dismissed former Deputy Minister of Communications, Victoria
Hammah’s aspiration to be a million dollar richer as a politician.
Vicky
Hammah was caught on tape telling a female friend about her desire to
be a millionaire in office before “attacking” others.
"...I
understand politics very well. If I haven't made a million dollars I
wouldn't go and attack people. If you have money, then you can control
people,” she said on the leaked tape.
Though several people have
raised eyebrows over the Minister's political objective, Fred Agbenyo
says there is nothing untoward in one aspiring to be wealthy. He
describes it as “ambition”.
He said during a panel discussion programme on Peace FM's flagship programme, “Kokrokoo” that the former Deputy Communications Minister only nursed an ambition and so, should not be strangled over her blabber.
In
his view, everyone in life has got an ambition “some people have a goal
to purchase an air craft, others also have bigger dreams, and so,
equally she must set a goal for herself”.
“In which context was
that statement made. Did she say that she wants 1 million dollar in
government?” Fred Agbenyo asked, stating emphatically that the
statements on the leaked tape are nothing but just pure gossip.
“When
you listened to the entire tape, 30 minutes 7 seconds; the only
conclusion you can come to is that it’s a pure case of petty gossip...I
am wondering why up till now Vic cannot come out to talk about the
issue. You see, in this country…it’s as if it’s a crime now to even
speak the truth,” he said. |
