President Mills receives EOCO report
The Economic and Organised Crimes Office (EOCO) has presented its report on the controversial Ghc51 million judgment debt to the President of Ghana, John Evans Atta Mills.
President Mills has asked the Attorney General and Minister of Justice to act on the report and make it public.
Reports coming from the seat of government quote the EOCO boss to have said that President Mills twice stopped the payment to the embattled philanthropist, but were brushed aside hence the payment of the GhC51 million.
The National Democratic Congress (NDC) financier was awarded the whopping sum in 2010 after having made a case that the erstwhile Kufuor administration wrongfully terminated his contract to build stadia ahead of the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations in Ghana.
Following huge public outcry and media scrutiny, the President ordered the national investigative outfit to look into the facts that led to the payment of the amount, which the opposition NPP has described as the biggest loss to the state in the political history of the country.
