The National Organizer of opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Kofi Adams, has discounted media reports that state transporter Metro Mass Transit Limited (MMTL) is on the heels of the NDC over buses the party rented whilst in government. The party is alleged to have failed to pay for the services the company rendered it. But Mr. Adams says (in Twi) “we don’t owe Metro Mass that amount of money and I think they [MMT] must even balance us because we have paid them the amount we owe”.
Media reports on Thursday suggested MMT had issued a pro forma invoice to the NDC after it had lost the general elections on December 7, revealing the then governing party owed the state transport company a total of GH¢1,921, 896.99. The pro forma invoice was sent to the party’s headquarters for the attention of the NDC National Organizer, Kofi Adams, who doubled as the Campaign Coordinator of John Dramani Mahama’s 2016 campaign team – which failed to achieve the goal of a second term bid for the former president. The story alleged that the NDC had hired a total of 506 buses for its luxurious 2016 electioneering campaign. Sources say the party only paid GH¢410,000 out of the GH¢1, 921,896.99 debt, despite a supposedly generous discount offered to the party.
The reports further said the MMT had even given the NDC a 20% discount for using the buses between November 30 and December 9, 2016 since the original amount for using the 506 buses was GH¢2, 402,371.24. Reacting to the issue in an interview with Onua FM, Mr Adams said “as far as we are concerned, we don’t owe Metro Mass that amount of money because they have not communicated to us”. He added: “I think they must even balance us because we have paid them and we have nothing to do with them”.

How can you be given discount for a transaction and when you fail to pay the one who discounted the cost for you comes back to owe you. Kofi Adams is illogical and ***barred word***. An incompetent 1Di0t who sat down for an incumbent to lose elections by the widest margin in the history of the country. No wonder he is making claims that MMT owes him when he is unable to pay for services on which he was given a huge discount. Mr. Ex Prez Mahama, please do not disturb our ears with your Incumbency Disadvantage mantra when you have such characters as Kofi Adams leading your campaign strategies and organisation.
METRO MASS SHOULD TAKE KOFI ADAMS AND NDC TO COURT. THEY MUST PAY EVERY PESEWA OWED THE MMT OUTFIT ELSE MANAGEMENT OF MMT MUST BE MADE TO FACE THE FULL RIGORS OF THE LAW FOR CAUSING FINANCIAL LOSS TO THE STATE. KOFI ADAMS THINK MMT IS A GOVT ENTITY SO WHILST IN GOVT THEY CAN USE THEIR SERVICES FOR FREE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IRRESPONSIBLE ON THE PART OF NDC AND KOFI ADAMS. A PARTY THAT TOUTS ITSELF IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS BUT CAN'T PAY THEIR BILLS. NDC HAS DONE SO TO VRA, GRIDCO, ECG AND MANY OTHER OUTFITS INCLUDING BANKS AND THIS HAS CRIPPLED MOST OF THESE INSTITUTIONS. WHAT AT ALL IS WRONG WITH KOFI ADAMS? WHY HAS TURNED TO BE A THORN IN THE FLESH OF GHANAIANS AND WANTS TO MAKE EVERY GHANAIAN POOR BUT ENRICH HIMSELF. KOFI ADAMS IS NOBODY AND MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO TAKE INSTITUTIONS AND GOVT TO RANSOM. HE CAN GO TO HELL.
Look Kofi Adams must be arrested, he insults the intelegence of Ghanaians.
