The National Service Scheme has suffered a severe mauling for weeks on account of a payroll scandal which was a bother to all including NASPA the major stakeholder of the Scheme.
According to preliminary investigations by the Bureau of National Investigations, some managers of the Scheme ‘ballooned’ the number of service persons by close to 23,000 in July which allegedly defrauded 7.9 million Ghana cedis of Ghanaian tax payer’s money.
As patriotic Ghanaian youth with the development of our country as a priority, we frown on such acts, hence welcome the decision of the President to appoint Dr. Michael Whyte Kpessa as the interim Executive Director of the Scheme.
NASPA is hopeful in its conviction that Dr. Kpessa with his track records and being a front liner of youth activities will once again redeem the enviable image of the National Service Scheme whiles we humbly and fervently advise him to be very circumspect and BEWARE OF POTENTIAL VAMPIRES who may be within the Scheme.
We wish him all the best and ready to support him to make all Service Personnel see National Service as a call to duty rather than a curse.
NASPA PRESIDENT
VINCENT EKOW ASSAFUAH JNR
