Jinapor and Asenso Boakye\u2026 the allegations could not be substantiated whatsoever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccordingly, this complaint is hereby dismissed as being without merit and totally unwarranted,\u201d CHRAJ concluded.<\/p>\n<p>The Criminal Investigations Department (CID), which also investigated the claims, also found the allegations baseless.<\/p>\n<p>CHRAJ noted that the \u201crelations between A-Plus and the two Deputy Chiefs of Staff appeared \u201cfrosty\u201d and may have accounted for the allegations Mr. Obeng leveled against the two.<\/p>\n<p>It noted that \u201ca possible strained relationship between Mr. Kwame Asare Obeng and Mr. Asenso-Boakye might have been extended to Mr. Jinapor as well.<\/p>\n<p>That could possibly be the ulterior motive for the allegations Mr. Asare Obeng leveled against the two Deputy Chiefs of Staff.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b>Background to Unibank Korle Bu issues<\/p>\n<p>The onsite banking services at Korle Bu were needed to deal with revenue leaks that had saddled the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, six banks were shortlisted to undergo a competitive selection process where Stanbic Bank emerged first and UniBank was fourth.<\/p>\n<p>But when the hospital submitted the names of the two banks to the Controller and Accountant General\u2019s Department for approval, issues were raised about weaknesses in UniBank\u2019s operations in two other hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>Korle Bus still went ahead to sign a MoU appointing UniBank to simultaneously collect revenue in the Hospital with Stanbic Bank.<\/p>\n<p>As the two banks started the onsite banking services, the revenue leaks persisted and the hospital\u2019s management decided to adopt an End-to-End Hospital Revenue Collection Software to integrate and network its operations.<\/p>\n<p>Stanbic Bank and UniBank were both requested to submit proposals for an End-to-End Hospital Revenue Collection Software in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Stanbic Bank successfully presented an efficient software, while UniBank was alleged to have failed to turn up during the two presentation sessions, thus the hospital awarded a contract to Stanbic Bank.<\/p>\n<p>Unibank, however, denied missing the presentation but said it was sidelined by the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>The End-to-End Hospital Revenue Collection Software was also said to be not compatible with the UniBank\u2019s system thus the hospital decided to discontinue the MoU with UniBank in order to enable Stanbic Bank to deploy the new software throughout the entire Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>But this was followed by the hospital rescinding the decision.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 2 updated by: 2 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Tuesday, 5 December 2017 Source: citifmonline.com 2017-12-05 Francis Asenso-Boakye (L) and Abu Jinapor (R) The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), has exonerated two presidential staffers of corruption allegations made against them by Kwame Asare Obeng, aka A-Plus, a sympathizer of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP).
