A former CEO of the Northern Development
Athority (NDA) has petitioned Chief of Staff Akusua Frema Osei Opare for a
fraud case involving him.
Dr. Sulemana Anamzoya accused his successor, Sumaila Abdul
Rahman, of forging the number and cashing in a contract
worth 10.4 million in the petition. A copied two-page petition to
President Akufo-Addo, describes how the government led by Sumaila
Abdul Rahman committed fraud in his name.
"Recently, as chief executive of the Northern
Development Authority (NDA), I noticed a contract that I
believe I signed when I awarded a consulting services contract to the
A&Q Consortium (A&Q). Amount 10,400 cedis. Under the program. Infrastructure
Poverty Eradication (IPEP), "Some of the documents seen by Joy
News have been read.
According to him, the only contract given to A&Q
during his tenure was 5.72 million cedis.
In the petition, the former CEO stated on January 16, 2020 that
the Department of Government Procurement (PPA) will use procurement from a
single source to acquire various advisory services to
implement the IPEP and said that it has approved the NDA.
The PPA approval provided the details
of the appointment, the proposed counselors, the number of members
of each councilor per district, and the estimated costs of
each councilor (see attached PPA approval).
“On January 28, 2020, with the approval of the PPA, we signed a contract
to award consulting service contracts to five PPA-approved
consultants,” he said in a petition.
In this context, Dr. Anamzoya hired A&Q to recommend 11
Upper West Side members for about 5.72 million cedis.
"The amount of the certificate I signed is 5.72
million, but I saw a forged copy of the certificate
showing that I signed the A&Q consultancy contract for
supervision for 10,400,000 cedis under IPEP. "As you can see
from the attached fake contract, my signature was placed on the contract (amount of 10,400,000).
That number does not match the rest of the contract
pages."
The embarrassed CEO told the chief of staff and
the president: "Whatever the intentions of the author, this
matter urgently requires disclosure of the perpetrators and the
convictions imposed on them. It is necessary, but above all, to free
myself to be accused of fraud .
"Therefore, I want to take this to your good
office for further investigation as I take steps to report the matter to
the Ghanaian police."
