General News of Tuesday, 17 January 2017Source: The ChronicleAssembly blows GHC72,000 on security men who work for themselvesFile photoThe Managing Director of SG-Lodge Hotel, located at Odumase-Krobo in the Eastern region, Mr. Sas George, has exposed massive corruption at the Lower Manya Krobo Municipal Assembly. Available information indicates that the out-going MCE has asked the Assembly not to file any defense to the writ. Instead, he wants the manager to have a friendly arrangement to pay the said amount, since the Assembly has no case. Investigations conducted by The Chronicle revealed that the people who lodged in the hotel were not drivers, but national security operatives-turned-contractors, who came to work on the roads of the municipality. Unfortunately, he said, he did not request for any report on the operations of the national security contractors when he resumed work.
