The Director of Policy Engagements and Partnerships at the Centre for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana), Dr Kojo Pumpuni Asante, has said that President should not have accepted the donation of two vehicles, even though he later declared them and handed them over to the state.

Speaking in an interview with JoyNews on May 6, 2025, Dr Asante expressed strong disapproval of the President's actions, stating that accepting such a gift could compromise both his position and the integrity of the presidency.

He raised concerns about the potential for the President to be influenced by these gifts. "I think it's a no, no, because these are high-value gifts.

How are you going to determine whether the President gets influenced or not in those kinds of scenarios?
