<\/a><\/div>\nOutspoken New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong says he sees nothing wrong with attacks on former Health Minister, Alban Bagbin for signing the contract for the supply of 200 ambulances for which the first 30 delivered were found to be defective.<\/p>\n
The Health Ministry in 2012 awarded a 2.4 million-Euro contract to a company owned by the special aide to former National Security Advisor, Joseph Nunoo Mensah.<\/p>\n
Out of the 200 ambulances expected to be procured through Big Sea Trading LLC, the first 30 of the vehicles supplied were found to be unfit for purpose.<\/p>\n
Current Health Minister, Kwaku Agyemang Manu said he will forward the appropriate documents to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) to probe the matter.<\/p>\n
Sections of Ghanaians have called on the government to prosecute persons who played a role in the awarding of the contract.<\/p>\n
But Mr. Alban Bagbin has since dismissed claims that he erred when he signed the contract.<\/p>\n
The Nadowli West Member of Parliament (MP) said he is ready to face the law if government finds the agreement to be problematic.<\/p>\n
Interacting with journalists in the Upper West Regional capital of Wa Sunday, Mr Bagbin said the issues that have been found with the contract have to do with its implementation.<\/p>\n
But speaking on Adom TV\u2019s Morning Show \u2018Badwam\u2019 Tuesday, Kennedy Agyapong who claims to have been vindicated by the findings asked the former health minister to stop defending himself which he believes will only undermine his integrity and rather concentrate on how to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n
He believes the blame should be left at his (Bagbin) doorstep since he was in control of affairs at that time.<\/p>\n
\u201cI quite remember I took this issue of faulty ambulance to parliament but it was thrown out because the NDC who were in power at that time thought I was just making mere allegations but now I\u2019m happy I have been vindicated and now see the mess we are in now. I am now challenging Owusu Bempah and now a political prophet.<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew this would come. How can NDC be so wicked to have involved themselves in such rot? Babgin should stop defending himself because attacks on him is in order. They should keep attacking him\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n
The controversial MP further called on government to immediately charge those who played a role in awarding the contract.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose who were responsible as far as the contract is concerned should be charged\u201d he urged.<\/p>\n
