Those plotting against Foreign Affairs Ministry over passport sales are NPP members — Rev. James O. Batsa alleges
Rev. James O. Batsa, an aspiring Deputy Eastern Regional Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has alleged that individuals behind attempts to undermine the Ministry of Foreign Affairs over the controversial sale of service and diplomatic passports are card-carrying members of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to Rev. Batsa on Kessben Maakye Accra, the controversy surrounding the alleged sale of these special categories of passports has become a politically sensitive issue, with individuals he claims are affiliated with the NPP allegedly working against the ministry.
His comments raise questions about possible political interference and the motives behind the allegations surrounding the issuance and sale of service and diplomatic passports.
The NDC communicator’s claims also bring renewed attention to the need for transparency, accountability and strict enforcement of the procedures governing the issuance of diplomatic and service passports in Ghana.
The controversy highlights the importance of a thorough and impartial investigation to establish the facts and protect public confidence in Ghana’s passport administration system.
