Former Advisor to the President in the erstwhile John Mahama Administration, Dr. Valerie Sawyerr has taken a swipe at the Vice President calling his performance “pathetic interventions”

She has also accused government of corruption and mismanagement, adding that appointees have failed to delivers for the good people of Ghana.

According to Dr. Valerie Sawyerr, the government has denied the former president his emoluments, but the government seem unconcerned.

She expressed her dissatisfaction about how the Akufo-Addo government is treating the former president.

“It is a blatant untruth for the Akufo-Addo Government to say that they have been paying the rent for President John Mahama’s Cantonments office. It is a brazen falsehood for Akufo-Addo’s Government to say that they have been negotiating or engaging in talks with President John Mahama for an office for him.”she said

Adding that, “She should know that, without a doubt, President John Mahama is entitled to a fully functional office after his term as President and this office should be provided by Government. This includes an office building, office furniture, office equipment and salary payments for a limited number of office staff. Indeed, the Edu-Buandoh Emoluments Committee in its August 2016 report described this as “furnished and up to-date office and communication equipment”.

Taking on the government, she berated the Akufo-Addo administration accusing them for corruption and incompetence.

“With the terrible mismanagement of the economy, the pathetic interventions of Vice President Bawumia, the incompetence and lack of cohesive productivity of the members of Government, and the constant corruption scandals, it is clear that the people of Ghana have given up on your government and are passionately clamouring for the return of President John Mahama.”

In a post by the former Advisor, she wrote among other things, accusing the Chief of Staff of reneging on her duties

“It is a blatant untruth for the Akufo-Addo Government to say that they have been paying the rent for President John Mahama’s Cantonments office. It is a brazen falsehood for Akufo-Addo’s Government to say that they have been negotiating or engaging in talks with President John Mahama for an office for him.

“We are in the sixth year of President Akufo-Addo’s reign of terror and simple constitutional requirements have been disregarded with impunity,” she added

She continued, “It is a real shame! The shame goes to President Akufo-Addo and to his Chief of Staff, Frema Opare. I mention Frema’s name, specifically, because at her level in government there are a number of matters she deals with that do not come to the attention of the President.

“If she is competent, she will have a list in front of her of the emoluments of ex-presidents and their spouses. She should know, off the cuff, what President John Mahama is entitled to and should be ticking the items off one after the other as soon as the constitutional commitments have been fulfilled. Unless of course she is following orders from President Akufo-Addo to violate the laws of the land.

“She should know that, without a doubt, President John Mahama is entitled to a fully functional office after his term as President and this office should be provided by Government. This includes an office building, office furniture, office equipment and salary payments for a limited number of office staff. Indeed, the Edu-Buandoh Emoluments Committee in its August 2016 report described this as ‘furnished and up to-date office and communication equipment’.” she revealed.
