Murtala Mohammed, former Nanton MP

Muntaka confirmed to NDC leadership bribe was given - Murtala Mohammed
Former Member of Parliament for Nantong
Constituency and former Deputy Minister of Trade
and Industry, Hon. Murtala Ibrahim Mohammed has
revealed that Muntaka Mubarak Mohammed confirmed
to the leadership of the National Democratic
Congress (NDC) that indeed there was a bribe given
to the ministerial vetting committee.

He made this claim on the mother of all talk shows
Alhaji and Alhaji on Radio Gold Saturday when
expressing his opinion on the show.

According to Murtala Mohammed, he is shocked and
still can't understand why his party leadership is
sitting on this information making it seem as if
the three accusers Mahama Ayariga, Alhassan
Suhuyini and Samuel Okudjeto Ablakwa were just
making false claims.

"It still baffles me, is it not true the
leadership of the NDC met with the Minority in
parliament over this issue? And is it not also
true that Hon. Muntaka and the rest of the
Minority on the vetting committee confirmed that
indeed there was a bribe given? So what is really
happening?

"I want to know whose interest our party
leadership is protecting? What exactly do they
want to achieve? I cant get it. Are we serious as
a party to win power in the next election? And we
are not ready to expose the very people who
accused our party of being corrupt and went ahead
to accuse the former number one gentleman of the
land of being corrupt?

"This same Boakye Agyarko who was accused of
giving bribe to the minority for their endorsement
as Power Minister reaffirmed his claim that former
President Mahama and his government were corrupt
before the vetting committee. So why are we
defending such a person when we have an open
evidence against him?” Hon. Murtala Mohammed
revealed.

He added: "to me, I don’t see this as trying to
betray any comrade in the minority. It is about
the party- NDC- proving to Ghanaians the very
people who lied their way to win power on the
bases of painting the NDC as corrupt are the real
corrupt people. I want to use this opportunity to
congratulate the three honorable men who have
stood on the path of truth to expose the mess in
our parliament. It's a difficult thing to do but I
think it will benefit not only the NDC but to help
this country clean our parliament,” Hon Murtala
Mohammed said.
