Executive Director of the Media Foundation for West Africa Sulemana Braimah has raised concerns about government contracting practices. He said the next few days are crucial to see if the administration is following its pledge.
The promise involves stopping the misuse of sole-sourced contracts and restrictive tendering. Mr. Braimah highlighted that the abuse of state resources is a significant issue.
He believes that such practices undermine fair competition and lead to financial losses for the state.
Government officials have not yet responded to these specific concerns regarding contract awards.
The Media Foundation for West Africa conducts research and advocacy on media development and freedom.
Their work often involves monitoring government transparency and accountability.
Mr. Braimah's statement comes as public interest in government spending remains high.
The public awaits further clarity on the government's actions concerning these contract procedures.
