34 cedis into 35 dollars? (audio)

There was drama at the Presidential Commission probing Ghana’s participation at the 2014 Brazil World Cup when Mr Horace Ankrah, who chaired the Grounds, Events and Logistics Sub-committee, appeared before the commission.

Tuesday’s sitting was day 17 of the ongoing probe.

Mr Horace Ankrah fumbled when the commission tried to clear the discrepancies on amounts agreed to pay for the feeding of the supporters who were airlifted to Brazil

He said one of the caterers contracted to cook for the supporters quoted their charges in cedis but when he tendered his evidence, the paper work showed they had been paid in dollars.

Mr Ankrah was unable to properly explain why the committee decided to quote $35 for feeding each supporter after it had initially agreed with various caterers that Ghc34 would be charged.

Listen to Justice Dzamefe interrogating Mr Ankrah in the audio attached.
