Barker Vormawor calls for disbandment of Public Procurement Authority

In a post on X, Vormawor called for the disbandment of the PPA, alleging that it has failed in its purpose to promote fair competition and save money through competitive procurement.

He argued that the current procurement system in Ghana rewards corruption, leading to a situation where "every 9 in 10 Ghanaian has become or been made a thief."

Vormawor lamented the broken state of the system and suggested that those benefiting from corruption are resistant to change. He emphasized the need for reform in the procurement system to address issues of corruption and promote fairness.

The Public Procrement Authority should just be disbanded.

They have never said no to Government’s request to single source anyone.

This was an Authority created to help streamline and help Ghana save money through competitive procurement. But Ghana Ghana’d.
