Corruption scandals seem to be the order of the day in Ghana now as hot on the heels of the EOCO and SSNIT corruption deals, more has been uncovered at the National Sports Authority.
An audit conducted of the body found that a figure of Ghc 1,006,644.73 which cannot be accounted for has been spent by the Authority.
Out of the figure, Ghc 726,954.95 was given through one pay officer, name witheld, who spent the figures without issuing any receipts, making it impossible for auditors to trace them.
49 payment vouchers amounting to Ghc 279,689.78 were not presented for audit, and Ghc 38,498.35 was given out as loans and salary advances to employees who failed to pay the money back.
Within the same period this ‘waa waa’ was going on, the NSA owed ECG massive amounts of money and left the Accra Sports Stadium to rot due to lack of funds to maintain the edifice.
Ghana ‘nono’.
