Some members of the Elephant’s Eye at a press briefing

We'll act as watchdog at Zongo Ministry - Group
A pro New Patriotic Party (NPP) group in the
Asawase constituency calling itself
‘Elephant’s Eye’ has pledged its willingness
to serve as watchdogs over President Nana Addo
Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s Zongo Community and Inner
City Development Ministry.

The group promised to ensure that funds allocated
to the ministry are not misappropriated.

Addressing journalists in Kumasi, the President of
the group, Abdul Hailik Siita explained that they
will also ensure that monies are used for projects
they are intended for and not diverted to other
areas.

‘The Elephant’s Eye would serve as a watch
dog. We would make sure money set aside in the
budget would go into the under listed thematic
areas in the Constitution.

And we would also make sure that those people that
are going to be in charge will make sure that
whatever the money is supposed to be done with is
what it would be used for.

The monies cannot be allocated for something
different for anyone to also sit somewhere and
also direct that the monies should be used for any
other thing other than what the money was supposed
to be used for. So it is not going to be a watch
dog, a watch bull dog for that matter and a wild
one,’ he said.

The group expressed appreciation to the President
Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo for the creation of
the ministry aimed at giving Zongo communities and
urban centers facelift.

They further commended its members and other
groups such as Chin Kudi for Change, Gyindaadi for
change, NPP Zongo Youth, Zongo for Nana and
Bawumia, Kiss me, Loyal Ladies, Wait and See, Odo
Kakra Sika Kakra for their contribution towards
the victory of NPP in the Asawase Constituency.
