A pro forma invoice issued to the NDC after they lost the 2016 elections showed that they owed the MMTL a total of GH¢1.921,896.99.

According to the Daily Guide newspaper, the invoice was sent to the party’s headquarters for the attention of the NDC National Organizer, Kofi Adams, who was also the Campaign Coordinator of John Dramani Mahama’s campaign team.

However, the debt has not been settled fully. The party has paid only GH¢410,000 out of the GH¢1.921,896.99 debt. This leaves them with GH¢1,511,896.99 more to pay.

Reports also suggest that Metro Mass gave the then governing NDC a 20% discount for using the buses between November 30 and December 9, 2016.

The original amount for using the 506 buses was GH¢2.402,371.24 but were given an invoice of GH¢1.921,896.99 as a result of the 20% discount.

The failure of NDC to pay its debt is impeding the works of the state transporter.
