The Member of Parliament for Walewale, Hon. Abdul Kabiru Tiah Mahama, has accused the government of plotting a financial scheme to siphon public funds through the 2025 budget.
In a Facebook post, Dr. Kabiru claimed that over GH₵49 billion in unverifiable claims had been inserted into the budget, likening it to previous financial scandals.
“The government’s plan to manufacture nonexistent claims on government in a create, loot and share scheme in the 2025 budget has been uncovered,” he alleged.
He warned that these claims are not reflected in the Ghana Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS), drawing parallels to the controversial Woyome scandal under the previous NDC administration.
Dr. Kabiru assured Ghanaians that the opposition would thoroughly scrutinize the budget to safeguard public funds.
“As a responsible opposition, every single line shall be vetted to ensure that the Ghanaian is not shortchanged,” he stated.
He concluded with a stern message to the government: “Start well, abandon the scheme!”
The government is yet to respond to these allegations.
