A communication team member of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwesi Botchwey, has challenged former First Lady Lordinba Mahama to return all allowances paid to her.
He argued that the former First Lady must follow the example of Mrs. Rebecca Akufo-Addo and do the honourable thing.
He is alleging that the former First Lady must return an amount of GHc3.2 million.
Appearing on Frontline on Rainbow Radio 87.5Fm, he said the amount could help in constructing schools, hospitals and other facilities.
”The challenges we have in Ghana could be solved if Lordina Mahama returns all her allowances. She should follow the example of Mrs. Akufo-Addo,” he added.
He told host Kwabena Agyapong that the recommendations by Prof. Nriamoagh-Baidu for the first and second ladies to receive salaries are unconstitutional.
He however admitted that they should be given allowances because they perform some functions in the country.
Touching on the decision by Mrs. Akufo-Addo to return what she has received, he commended her saying, she was made, to look like a bad person.
He indicated that the amount involved is nothing that will make or unmake her.
