Comments on: PURC has no business constructing boreholes – Analyst https://citifmonline.com/2016/11/purc-has-no-business-constructing-boreholes-analyst/ Ghana News | Ghana Politics | Ghana Soccer | Ghana Showbiz Wed, 23 Nov 2016 13:46:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.0.8 By: Roger Baaabe https://citifmonline.com/2016/11/purc-has-no-business-constructing-boreholes-analyst/#comment-2962 Wed, 23 Nov 2016 13:46:00 +0000 http://citifmonline.com/?p=270964#comment-2962 I don’t subscribe to the idea of inflating contracts sums but the way citi fm do reports their stories suggests they are in bed with the NPP. I thought Richard Sky and the team would have commented further when it became clear that Dr. Bawumia also drilled a borehole for Walewale hospital almost the same amount. However, what Mr. Sky said made me disappointed in citi fm. He said, since that one is not public money he can chose to spend it anyhow. What comes to mind is, did it actually cost him that much to drill that borehole?, was he aware of cheaper ones yet he went for such huge amount? The questions journalists should have been asking is, would Bawumia be able to bargain for cheaper contracts when he becomes vice president? because when in opposition he couldn’t. I now understand why the president said the media is being hijacked by a cabal.- Roger
