HRH Oscar Yao Doe, the Chairman of Doscar Group Holdings does not want Ghanaians currently making a hue over reported Nepotism in the government to believe that it is a new thing. He said that in recent history, only former leader, Prez JJ Rawlings did not practice Nepotism. He said nepotism have been always been recorded in past administrations, although it is now so excessive under hhe present administration.
In a new public post this morning however, HRH Doe said Prez Nana Akuffo-Addo stands tall in the Nepotism Debate, after having “loaded his immediate family including distant cousins, close friends into government positions.
He also wondered why strangely the president has Ignored the sacrifices of siblings of the First Lady who worked harder, day and night to stand by him
He wrote :
Nepotism In Ghana’s Body Polity: (Both And NPP Are Guilty. But Prez J.J Rawlings Did Not Practice Nepotism “The Truth” He Led By Example.
(During The Tenure of) Prez Kuffour, (It Was) Very Limited. His Brother, Dr. Addo-Kuffour Was Appointed A Minister.
Prez Mills Appointed His Twin Brother, An Advisor.
Prez Mahama Appointed His Niece Deputy Minister, Her Husband (FDA) And Gave Ghana Bauxite Reserve To His Brother (Unwise Decision) Very Childish!
But Prez Akuffo-Addo Stand Tall In This Debate! He Has Loaded His Immediate Family Including Distant Cousins, Close Friends Into An Articulated Truck And Drove Them All The Way Into Government Positions. But Strangely He Has Ignored The Sacrifices Of The First Lady’s Siblings Who Worked Harder, Day And Night, Over Decades, To Stand By Him.
From Another Angle, You Can Also Sympathize With Prez Akuffo-Addo. Because Many Of His Immediate Family Members; Including Cousins, Close Friends Have Stood By Him Almost 2 Decades, Throughout His Political Career. Therefore, On The Balance Of Scale, I Think He Can Be Forgiven Even Though It Is Excessive. The History Books Will Capture Prez Akuffo-Addo’s Appointments As Such. There Are Many More Names In Government That Were Not Captured On The List (Being Circulated Around) Because The NDC Rushed To Collate It For Their Political Benefit.
I Bet To Differ On The Ahwoi Brothers, Alhaji Mahama Iddrisu, Harry Sawyer, Lee Ocran, Betty Mould..They Are Political Icons For Ghana In Frontline Politics Since 1970s, 80s & 90s. (They Have) Served in Parliament, Council of State, Etc. No Family Relationship With Prez Rawlings, Mills & Mahama.
Alhaji Mahama Iddrisu Is A Giant Political Pillar For Ghana. He Influenced Prez Rawlings To Allow Ghana Into A Democracy In 1992.
Hon Hannah Tetteh Served in Parliament. A Very Capable Politician, No Family Relationship With Prez Mills And Mahama.The Genius Lawyer Tony Lithur, Alex Mould, Oye Lithur, Sawyer Family Etc. Are All Classic Ghanaians With Qualifications And Capabilities to Serve in Government. (No Family Relationships With Prez Mills And Prez Mahama.
We Have An Obligation To Educate Our Youths And Upcoming Generations On Ghana Politics With The Truth.
