Lauretta Vivian Lamptey

The Commissioner for the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ)- who was recently accused and investigated for spending over $180,000 on rent alone has been SUSPENDED by President Mahama.

Last year, it emerged that since Lauretta Vivian Lamptey assumed office 3 years ago; she was yet “to move into her official residence which was still under renovation with several variations at cost of GHC 182,000”.

Meanwhile, she was said to have rented an apartment at the AU Village at the cost of $4,500 per month. She was however ejected from her rented apartment following the expiration of her 2013 tenancy.

Though a budgetary allocation of GHC 1.5 million was made available to the Commission with an allocated GHC 500,000 for annual accommodation expenses for staff, it was reported that between January and August 2014, Ms Lamptey alone spent GHC 120,000 on her monthly rent.

Today, has been suspended…
