Airbus scandal is politically motivated- Mensah Thompson

Executive  Director of the Alliance for Social Equity and Public Accountability [ASEPA], Mensah Thompson is urging that the focus of any investigations on the airbus scandal should look at  administrative lapses that bring that such actions.

Speaking on AdekyemuNsem on Ahotor FM ,Mensah Thompson questioned the systematic mechanisms that make the multinational companies to bribe our leaders, and  able to get contracts.

This, if found out, would be a great stepping stone in dealing international fraud.

He said, the country has not lost any money in the airbus scandal to be investigated, and   accused the NPP as the brain behind the international publicatios that seem to tarnish the image of some Ghanaian individuals.

There were reports in some UK newspapers that a popular British actor is being sought for questioning in Ghana in connection with the Airbus bribery scandal.

According to the Daily Mail and The Sun, Philip Middlemiss, 55, is wanted by the Ghana Police for his role in the £5 million Airbus bribery scandal.

He is among four others who are being investigated after being named by the aircraft manufacturer for their roles in the scandal.

However, Mensah Thompson believes, it is a ploy to tarnish the image of some political opponents.
