The Minority in Parliament plans to petition the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) to investigate businessman, Ibrahim Mahama, and his company, Engineers & Planners, over their involvement in the Damang Mine takeover and the use of his private jet by President John Dramani Mahama.
Addressing journalists in Parliament on Thursday, March 26, members of the Minority Caucus raised concerns about irregularities and constitutional breaches in the investor selection process for the Damang Mine.
They described the procedure as lacking transparency and fairness, casting doubt on the outcome’s credibility.
“The Minority won’t accept the government characterisation of this process as competitive.
What we see is a winner being arranged, not selected,” they said.Under Article 287 (1) of the 1992 Constitution, the Minority plans to petition CHRAJ, citing violations of chapter 24.
They’re considering a joint effort with civil society organisations, professional bodies, and concerned citizens to probe the private jet and Damang Mine issues as “two manifestations of the same constitutional breach”
