Justice Abeeku Newton-Offei a former presidential staffer of ex-President Akufo-Addo has reacted to alleged leaked documents of the expenses made by the Hajj committee. He says Ghanaians haven’t seen anything yet, this is just the beginning.
In a post shared on his Facebook page on 20th January 2025. He wrote;
“But I thought they said the economy was in total shambles and the country’s coffers are in tatters? Ghanaians haven’t seen anything yet; this is just the beginning.”
He shared the alleged leaked document. It reads;
“SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES FOR OFFICIAL TRIP TO SAUDI ARABIA
I write to formally request reimbursement for expenses incurred during the recently concluded official trip to Saudi Arabia on the demand of the President. The trip was undertaken in fulfillment of assigned duties, and all expenditures were necessary to ensure the success of the mission.”
According to the document, the total expenses are GHC277,255.00 and $28,725.00 respectively.
It is in the wake of this that Newton Abeeku has asserted that Ghanaians have seen nothing yet.
