The Member of Parliament for North Tongu Samuel Okudzeto has commended President Nana Addo Dankwa-Akufo-Addo for flying a commercial flight on his latest trip to Egypt and the US.

The North Tongu MP has in recent times chastised the president for flying in private jet on international assignments at the expense of the taxpayer.

In a Facebook post on Sunday, Ablakwa said: “Since we started our unimpeachable tracking of President Akufo-Addo’s condemnable oligarchic travels some two years ago, this has been the longest period he’s avoided €20,000-an-hour luxury jets.

“I can confirm that on his latest Ghana-Egypt-USA trip, the President flew commercial during his entire itinerary and returned Friday night (11/11/2022) aboard British Airways flight BA81 at 8:57pm.”

Ablakwa added: “We all sincerely hope President Akufo-Addo will continue on this responsible path of saving the Ghanaian taxpayer millions of Cedis, especially when the IMF bailout arrives. We shall keep tracking, for God and Country.”
