+ The Energy-designate Minister, Matthew Opoku Prempeh has once again justified his acceptance of a Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund) scholarship in 2016. He told Parliament’s Appointment Committee on Friday during his vetting that MPs access scholarships from the Fund and there is nothing wrong with him also benefitting. “Members of this House [Parliament] access even on that particular course [in 2016]. I went with someone on the Majority side [at the time.] I do not regret it, it wasn’t done for just me and if I get the same opportunity, I will do it again.” A performance audit report of the Auditor-General on the administration of scholarships by GETFund revealed that then Education Minister Matthew Opoku-Prempeh, Procurement Minister and Deputy Majority Leader in Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo as well as the Executive Secretary of the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA), Prince Hamidu Armah all benefitted from the scheme.
