In a related development, the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has patted itself on the back for exposing “the biggest corruption scandal in Ghana’s history,” the Power Distribution Services (PDS) deal. This was disclosed by the General Secretary of the NDC Johnson Asiedu Nketiah in Accra.
Again, Government has started the process of getting a befitting successor of PDS and has listed 6 companies for the restrictive tendering as suggested by the Minister of Finance.
