The President of IMANI Ghana, Franklin Cudjoe has blamed the late President John Mills for “giving Ghana an incompetent Commissioner” for the Commission of Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ).<\/p>\n
According to Franklin Cudjoe, the inconsiderate behavior of CHRAJ boss Lauretta Lamptey, is indicative of the incompetent persons the late President appointed during his tenure.<\/p>\n
Ms Lamptey has come under fire for\u00a0spending thousands of dollars<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0on a rented apartment and on hotel bills using the scarce resources of the Commission which is struggling to perform its mandate because of financial problems.<\/p>\n \u201cThis thing doesn’t make any sense but I am not surprised; these are the vestiges of late President Mills\u2019 handiwork because some of the decisions he took have unfortunately landed us this way,\u201d he lamented.<\/p>\n Mr. Cudjoe was however quick to clarify that he was in no way speaking ill of the dead but explained that \u201cthis is just evaluating the decisions that our leader had made; very poor decisions\u2026we know that President Mills had done quite a lot of things that have unfortunately left us in a lot of problems.\u201d<\/p>\n [contextly_sidebar id=”gMUxq2NSeffVSpTlvRFixeIVJlMv0HNm”]She has also been accused of ordering the renovation and redesign<\/strong><\/span><\/a> of her official residence at an outrageous cost.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is the handiwork; this is the legacy we were left so when people are talking about President Mills\u2019 legacy, they should start looking at these as well because of the problems we are facing right now, most of them were supervised by late President Mills. Let\u2019s not mince words,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Some groups and institutions are calling for her dismissal<\/strong> <\/span><\/a>while others are admonishing her to honourably resign<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n Speaking on Citi FM\u2019s<\/strong> news analysis programme, The Big Issue<\/strong>, the IMANI boss opined that if Ms Lamptey had shown \u201ca little compassion for people, I don\u2019t think that she would have done the thing that she did.\u201d<\/p>\n He described as \u201cplain corruption\u201d, the amount of money spent on her accommodation\u00a0 claiming that \u201cthe renovations that were to be done, it shouldn\u2019t take more than a month for it to be completed, so for it to have taken three years and counting, only means that she is benefiting from the extensions.\u201d<\/p>\n
