@kingsempire.gh: Member of Parliament for Akuapem North, Sammy Awuku, has criticized President Mahama’s recent directive to cancel all fuel allowances and allocations for political appointees, describing it as a populist stunt and a PR gimmick. He called for clarity on the directive, questioning who qualifies as a political appointee and seeking specifics on who is included or exempted from the policy. He further challenged the president’s commitment to his austerity measures, urging him to demonstrate seriousness by shutting down the fuel vending points at both the Osu Castle and the Jubilee House.
