World Cup visa scandal: Mahama will act on corruption allegations – Abass Nurudeen
He disputed Mr Assafuah’s claim that the Sports Minister had allowed the ministry’s influence to be used to facilitate visas for people allegedly misrepresented as NSA staff.
Speaking on JoyNews’ Newsfile on Saturday, October 10, Mr Nurudeen urged the Minority in Parliament to provide evidence to substantiate its allegations against officials of the Ministry of Sports and Recreation, rather than making what he described as politically motivated claims.
He also referred to a video in which he alleged that Mr Assafuah had spoken about securing visas for people during the 2018 World Cup in Australia, questioning the MP’s criticism of the current arrangements.
