Embattled businessman, Alfred Agbesi Woyome has so far paid only GH¢4.6 (four point six million) out of the 51 million cedis wrongfully paid to him in judgement debt.

Controller and Accountant General, Eugene Asante Ofosu-Hene confirmed the payment when he appeared before the Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee Monday.

The revelation was made at Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee sitting where the 2016 Auditor General’s report on the Consolidated Fund was scrutinised.

Members of Parliament (MPs) on the Committee wanted to know the progress made so far in the collection of the ¢51.2 million debt the national Democratic Congress financier owes the State.

Alfred Woyome was paid ¢51 million for helping Ghana raise funds to construct stadia for purposes of hosting the CAN 2008 Nations Cup.

However, an Auditor General’s report released in 2010 said the amount was paid illegally to the NDC financier.
