A group calling itself Truth and Accountable Governance (TAG), is calling President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to drop the name of Madam Catherine Afeku as Minister designate of Tourism and Creative Arts
The group in a release signed by its executives is alleging that the nominee is a fraudster and as such, should have her nomination revoked in order to save the integrity the president’s nominees.
“Mrs Catherine Afeku and her husband Mr Seth Afeku were found guilty for defrauding American couples on 19-10-2013 by an Accra High Court presided over by Her Lordship Barbara Ackah-Yensu. The trial judge directed the former MP for Evalue-Gwira Constituency Mrs Afeku and her husband Mr Afeku to pay an amount of $ 217,464.00 plus 50% interest to the plaintiffs, Patricia and Bill Gick”
According to the group, such a character should not be allowed to hold such important public office.
“ We also believe that Private Investors both Local and International will not have confidence and trust in the sector if an alleged fraudster is allowed to hold that office. H.E Akufo-Addo being a Lawyer and an anti-corruption campaigner, should have known better. We are calling on him to immediately revoke the appointment of Mrs Catherine Afeku as Minister of
Tourism designate if he wants Ghanaians to believe in his willingness to fight corrupt officials”

Has anybody in your circles won an appeal before? And in that event is the person still a convict because initially a sentence of GUILT was pronounced on that person? Instead of the mischief of maligning the Minister Designate, why don't you search for the consequences of that initial conviction? Must we always be so superficial in our mischief?!
I knew this matter would definitely resurface. Whatever it is that the minister-designate did needs to be investigated. I am surprised that no one pointed it out to Nana prior to her nomination. Although we do not expect angels to serve as ministers, it is too early too bad to have a woman with a questionable past to give ammunitions to the opponents. Nana please look at her nomination again
IF MRS AFEKU'S FRAU CASE IS THE REALLY THE CASE THEN SHE MUST BE DROPPED IMMEDIATELY. OR IF THE PRESIDENT WANTS TO USE SUCH CHARACTERS TO TEST THE INTEGRITY OF PARLIMENTARY SELECT COMMITTEE ON CONFIRMING NOMINEES, THEN PARTIAMENT MUST BE CAREFUL TOO. WE DON'T NEED BAD NUTS IN HIGH LEADERSHIP POSITIONS AGAIN. NAANA, ARE YOU LISTENING?
Upon all your noise that has brought you to power, you still accusing Ndc of your woes even when they are in opposition. Everyone know the woman is a thieeeeeff so why trying to defend her.
...this was in the news in 2013 and many read and heard it, so it is prudent the president listens to the people, or do you accusers want such character to tarnish Nana's good intensions?
Another satanic NDC group.Trust me we are going to hear of more of these evil intentioned groups. This is how the NDC understand opposition to be.This issue has come up before .Ask the lady and she;d have a perfectly logical explanation for all this.
Ndc thi*ves and equalization of ***barred word***. These people are so confused with in opposition that they sinking their party the more,they making their party ndc so unattractive that by 2020 their votes will reduce to 2 million. When did ndc fo d the word integrity?or it applies only to others but not ndc?thi*ves pointing fingers at others hahaha ? Ndc abodam! They are getting damn crazy,they thought Ghana belong to them so could do whatever with it and now want Ghanaians to listen and sympathize with them hahaha you lie bad. Your good intentions are no*sense to us because ndc are hateful,enviouss,disrespectful and arrogant that majority of Ghanaians hate you hence your unprecedented defeat of your so called young man with good looks,Ghanaians didn't listen to you so what makes you believe Nana will listen to the ndc more than the good people of Ghana? You hate the woman for nothing,you hate her because she is a strong woman but who cares about you? Ndc should give us a break and those cowards with no name to this article should go and burn the sea.
Time to delve into the past of all his appointees and find out whether they are men of integrity. I have heard even Barwumia is having some heavy cobwebs as Vice President.
Nana pls replace her to save us the embarrassment. Thank you
