Ga chiefs console Sylvester Mensah with GHC10k

The Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs has expressed anger at the freezing of accounts of the former head of the National Health Insurance Authority Sylvester Mensah.

An Accra High court froze the bank accounts of Mr. Mensah following a petition by the Bureau of National investigations (BNI), who are investigating him for alleged financial malfeasance at NHIA under his tenure.

But the Ga chiefs who paid a visit to him Thursday condemned the action of the State. Led by the Vice President of the regional House of Chiefs Nii kpobi Tettey Tsuru III , the chiefs presented a cash donation of GHC10,000 to him for his upkeep.

They assured him of their collective and individual support as the court awaits hearing of his charges.

Among the delegation that paid the visit was the Paramount Chiefs of La, Nungua, Tema, Osu, Prampram, Shai, and the Deputy Registrar of the House.
