Indexing government scandals one at a time
The Mahama administration is being criticised over the perceived favouring Woezor TV, which is owned by deputy chief of staff Stan Dogbe. The government has been accused of sidelining the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation, which is Ghana’s national broadcaster.
The presidency and John Mahama’s social media accounts have been promoting and broadcasting feeds from the private station. The criticism of the Woezor TV situation has centred around concerns about conflict of interest.
Critics have cited Article 284, which states that "a public officer shall not put himself in a position where his personal interest conflicts or is likely to conflict with the performance of the functions of his office."
