Deputy Minority Leader, Dominic Nitiwul on the floor of Parliament insisted that\u00a0Ghanaians must know the cost adding that\u00a0\u201cthe minimum that the government budgeted for the Black Stars was GH\u00a218.5 million, we need to really know the actual budget.”<\/p>\n
“How much was used in lifting the supporters from here to Equatorial Guinea, how many supporters went, how many times did they go, the feeding everything, we need to know this,” he further queried.<\/p>\n
He said when the Minister appeared in Parliament, \u201che limited it [his presentation] to just the players,\u201d describing it as \u201cvery misleading.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe point I\u2019m trying to make is that the minister still has a lot of information to give this House concerning the cost. GH\u00a218.5 is far below the figure, we all know that and he agrees with me,\u201d Dominic Nitiwul added.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mahama Ayariga has urged Ghanaians to stop asking what he says is \u201cuseless questions<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u201d about the AFCON budget.<\/p>\n \u201cYou are using valuable time to discuss useless matters, please, I think that this is very regrettable and it will dampen the spirit of the boys who were trying to kill themselves only to come back and even the food that they ate, they will hear on radio that their minister is [answering questions] about the food that they ate. It\u2019s sad,” he said.<\/p>\n By: Godwin Allotey Akweiteh\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n![\"Minister](\"http:\/\/4cd.e16.myftpupload.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Mahama-Ayariga.jpg\")
