The Convention People\u2019s Party (CPP) Youth League, has expressed its displeasure with the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice’s (CHRAJ), over its report exonerating President John Mahama in the Ford Gift saga.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe report leaves much to be desired and we think that there could have been a better way of reaching the conclusion that every Ghanaian would want in line with good governance practices,\u201d the CPP Youth League Secretary, Hardi Yakubu said to Citi News<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

CHRAJ was petitioned by the Youth wing of the CPP, and two others, to investigate the president’s acceptance of the $100,000 car from a\u00a0Burkinabe contractor, as Vice President in 2012, which they said amounted to a conflict of interest and corruption.<\/p>\n

But CHRAJ in its report\u00a0released on Thursday<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>noted that, it did not find the President guilty of bribery, fraud or conflict of interest, but said\u00a0President Mahama breached the gift policy.<\/p>\n

Mr. Yakubu\u00a0contends that, the resolution\u00a0of the report was contradictory, and did not measure up to the standards of good governance because, \u201cif you look at the code of conduct, it was enacted to prevent public officials from being in conflict of interest situations.\u00a0For us, there could have been a better way of looking at the facts and the evidence to reach a better conclusion on this matter,\u201d\u00a0he\u00a0stated.<\/p>\n

What CHRAJ said…<\/strong><\/p>\n

CHRAJ said the gift in question formed part of gifts prohibited under the Gift Policy under the Code of Conduct, and that although the evidence shows that President Mahama subsequently surrendered the gift to the State, the action nonetheless contravened the gift policy<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n
