Youth and Sports Minister Isaac Asiamah has lashed out at his predecessor Nii Lantey Vanderpuaye over his bribery allegation comments against the Ghana Football Association.
Last week Hon Nii Lantey Vanderpauye made allegation that the GFA attempted to bribe him when he was the Minister for Youth and Sports.
This Hon Isaac Asiamah thinks is just unfortunate and says he should have reported the matter to the police instead of waiting for his tenure to end before making allegations.
“What measures did Nii Lantey take when people attempted to bribe him as he claims? “As far am concerned You dare not attempt to bribe me” I have been an MP for 12 years and a Public Accounts Committee Member 8 year, so everybody knows my worth,” Asiamah told Kasapa FM.
“I will not end my term as Sports Minister before I go on air to accuse anybody of bribing me. What he is alleging is a criminal offence and he should have taken action when he was in power.”
“As a minister, I have work to do and that is what I’m committed to help the nation Ghana. The job is not all about lamentation like how somebody made it seem in the past. I do not engage the media that much because there is work to be done and that is where my focus is”
