Deputy National DRIP Coordinator, Kwadwo Nyarko Aboagye, has cautioned that anyone misusing DRIP equipment for illegal purposes will face prosecution and possible imprisonment.
Speaking in Tamale during the orientation of District DRIP Coordinators from the Northern and Savannah Regions, Mr. Aboagye urged participants to handle the equipment carefully and use it strictly for its intended purpose.
He emphasized that President John Dramani Mahama’s “resetting agenda” can only succeed if Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs) manage the equipment responsibly.
A total of 16 coordinators from the Northern Region and seven from the Savannah Region participated in the orientation.
Northern Regional Minister Ali Adolf John also warned the 23 district coordinators against using the DRIP equipment for personal gain. He urged them to maintain a strong equipment management culture and address challenges such as the failure to return items after use.
“Some district assemblies have refused to return DRIP equipment to the RCC since last year, and to date, we cannot trace them,” he revealed, appealing to the new coordinators to help recover the missing items.
