CHRAJ investigating Mahama an exercise in futility - Karbo

A deputy Communications Director of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) Anthony Karbo has cast doubt on the credibility of investigations to be carried out by the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) into alleged acts of corruption leveled against President John Mahama.

According to him, he does not see the constitutional body doing a fair job that may establish the President’s complicity in the case which has been the subject of controversy among Ghanaians for almost two weeks.

President John Mahama has come under intense pressure in the past week following an allegation of corruption leveled against him after he received a $100,000 car gift from his Burkinabe contractor friend who has undertaken some construction works in Ghana.

The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has called for a bipartisan investigation into the allegation to establish his complicity or otherwise in the case. The party further dared President Mahama to speak publicly to the issue.
