I’ll Recuse Myself If Kantanka Bids For Government Contract – Safo

The nominee Minister of State of Procurement, Adwoa Safo, has said she will recuse herself if Kantanka Automobile Limited, a company owned by her family, bids for a government contract.

The Minister-designate is expected to push for major changes in public procurement and make sure in procurement there will be fairness, non-discrimination​,value for money, and,  to a very large extent, integrity.

To this end, she told the vetting committee in parliament on Monday, 27 March: I "foresee in the event that Kantanka Automobile Company Limited, owned by my family, should bid for a contract, I obviously will have a vested interest in and I will recuse myself accordingly."​

Kantanka Automobile Company Limited is a subsidiary of the Kantanka​ Group of Companies founded by Apostle Dr Ing. Kwadwo Safo Kantanka, the founder and Leader of Kristo Asafo Mission of Ghana.
