Dela Edem, a spokesperson for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has called for the sale of Ghana's presidential jet. He stated this during a discussion on Adom FM.
Edem suggested that the funds raised from selling the Dassault Falcon 900 should be directed towards development projects. This is to help the nation before the government considers purchasing a new aircraft.
The presidential jet was recently sent to France for its annual maintenance. The spokesperson did not specify alternative transport arrangements.
This proposal comes amid ongoing discussions about national resource allocation and development priorities. Selling such an asset could potentially yield significant funds for various sectors.
The government has not yet responded to this suggestion from the NDC communicator.
Further details regarding the exact value of the jet or specific development projects it could fund were not immediately clear.
