Adwoa Safo, a prominent Member of Parliament in Ghana, has raised serious allegations regarding corruption within the nation's school feeding program. During a recent parliamentary session, she claimed that significant funds allocated for the initiative have been misappropriated. Safo pointed to instances where caterers involved in the program have reportedly not received their payments, raising concerns about the accountability of government officials overseeing these contracts.
She emphasized that many children who rely on this program for nutritious meals are being deprived due to administrative failures and potential misconduct. Safo called for an immediate investigation into these claims to ensure transparency and restore integrity within the school feeding initiative.
Her comments come amid growing scrutiny over public sector management and financial practices in Ghana. The school feeding program is crucial for supporting children's health and education, making it imperative that any allegations of impropriety are thoroughly examined.
