Are we mad? To be frank with you when I heard the report I called the budget officer only to realise that it was a typo,\u201d she told Starr Today\u2019s host Naa Dedei Tettey.<\/p>\n<p>She continued, \u201chow on earth can we use GH?800, 000 for this Ministry\u2019s website? What kind of website are we building? Please it is not GH?800, 000\u2026it was typo error.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to her, the correct figure is GH?80, 000, indicating further that the amount will not only be used in building a website for the Ministry but the three development authorities and their regional offices.<\/p>\n<p>When asked how that could have been an oversight, she said \u201cEven [I] myself when I saw it I was surprised until today that we all got to know about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Livid by the bad publicity the disclosure of the earlier figure courted the Ministry; Koomson chided the former deputy Finance Minister and Ranking member of the Finance committee of Parliament Cassiel Atto Forson, the source of the information for pursuing political equalisation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe is a ranking member and he was there the day the expenditure was presented to his committee\u2026why didn\u2019t he probe us there if truly he saw it? Because he wanted to make mischief\u2026and equalisation because NDC has been tagged as corrupt,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The new Ministry led by Hawa Koomson presented a total budget of GH\u00a271, 059, 970.00 for approval by parliament for its operations in the ensuing year.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CHygCopXinc\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 50 updated by: 50 --><\/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 Friday, 22 December 2017 Source: Starrfmonline.com 2017-12-22 Special Development Initiatives Minister Mavis Hawa Koomson The Special Development Initiatives Minister Mavis Hawa Koomson has rejected reports that her Ministry intends to spend an amount of GH?800, 000 for the development of a website.
