It is emerging that New Patriotic Party Member of Parliament for Abetifi in the Kwahu East district of the Eastern Region who doubles as Minister of State in charge of National Security, Byran Acheampong benefited from a huge software contract to manage the entire public sector payroll under the erstwhile John Mahama administration executed by Seth Terkper; MyNewsGh.com has filed.
Mr Bryan Acheampong is currently NDC’s number one ‘enemy’ for his onerous action of deploying a heavy-handed National Security team at Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election which saw NDC party members and MP beaten with many injuries recorded.
Details of the controversial contract awarded by then Finance Minister Seth Terkper to Bryan Acheampong’s Company first came to light in in February 2017 – exactly two years ago.
At the time,NPP member and anti-corruption activist Kwame A Plus alleged that the contract executed by Bryan Acheampong under NDC was dubious. He alleged that ghost names were created by the software to facilitate create, loot and share. He was consequently sued and they both parties are believed to have reached an out of court settlement.
