Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, Samuel Nartey George, has issued a strong warning to the outgoing government, cautioning against the signing and backdating of contracts after the 2024 general elections.
According to him, the incoming administration of President-elect John Dramani Mahama will not honour any agreements made under such circumstances.
In a Facebook post on Thursday, Mr George specifically called out attempts to finalise a contract on the Ghana.gov platform.
“The attempt to sign a contract on the Ghana.gov platform should cease with immediate effect,” he stated, adding that such actions undermine the integrity of governance and accountability during the transition period.
The Ningo-Prampram legislator assured Ghanaians that the incoming government is closely monitoring ongoing activities related to contract signing.
“We are monitoring all activities currently underway regarding the signing and backdating of contracts. Notice is duly served,” he cautioned, emphasising the need for transparency and adherence to proper procedures.
Mr George’s remarks underscore the National Democratic Congress (NDC)’s commitment to safeguarding public resources and ensuring a seamless transition.
He urged the outgoing administration to act in good faith, warning that any contract signed post-elections and backdated would be deemed illegitimate by the new government.
