We are defenders of public interest. But in our line of duty, we’re often called upon to challenge professorial insights. Last check, one professor attacked us for not agreeing to a $1.65b deal. It was later sold for $1! Total replay, but now a flock of professors🤦🏾♂️#SaveYaSef

@CallmeAlfredo @BBSimons We are still looking for the cited BoG account. All revenues are paid to GRA Except Price Stabilization and Recovery Levy which goes to BoG. But we have to dismantle the issues slowly, so we don’t miss any or fail to get people to understand.
@benboakye @BBSimons Also interesting that in SML’s original response to the fourth estate piece, it used a baseline of 350m litres per month. It’s likely using a lower baseline now because the 350m baseline means it has been paid ~40% of any incremental tax revenue. Interesting times ahead.
Still on the SML saga. It is normal for professors to be confused. But that shouldn't end up confusing policy decisions and the citizens on top. 🙏🏽 brightsimons.com/2024/04/30/how…
MIssed the Point of View discussion on SML yesterday? Here's another chance: youtu.be/38R3j0V064g?si… Key highlight: the term "underdeclaration" being bandied about is not what you might think. The 1BN GHS/~$100m paid to SML to catch tax thieves so far? Well...it's complicated.

Though not a bellwether constituency, the by-election results from Ejisu, a constituency in the Asante heartland of Ghana's ruling party, will shed crucial light on the fortunes of the Party going into the 2024 elections. A party dissenter is running as an independent.
Dear @fidelitybankgh, In a previous encounter, you were very angry that you weren't contacted about a public interest matter. Maybe, the essay, this time around, is too long, so we have summarised the issues. We need to hear from you about your role in this saga. Thank you.

Bright Simons Writes [@BBSimons]: Is the World Bank Saving or Harming Ghana? wp.me/pbL32S-7wR
Ghana has been borrowing millions of dollars from a UN agency called IFAD to help farmers. But is the money reaching farmers? The current & former Agric Ministers &...Fidelity Bank should kindly tell Ghanaians. 🙏🏽 #MercyForThePoor brightsimons.com/2024/04/28/how…
On Ghanaian social media, you often hear that rich people don't rate schooling & academic work, etc. Or that educational status is far inferior to economic status. So, then, why are so many rich people in Ghana interested in academic titles like honorary doctorates?

@CallmeAlfredo @BBSimons We are still looking for the cited BoG account. All revenues are paid to GRA Except Price Stabilization and Recovery Levy which goes to BoG. But we have to dismantle the issues slowly, so we don’t miss any or fail to get people to understand.
@benboakye @BBSimons Also interesting that in SML’s original response to the fourth estate piece, it used a baseline of 350m litres per month. It’s likely using a lower baseline now because the 350m baseline means it has been paid ~40% of any incremental tax revenue. Interesting times ahead.
@BBSimons Data, charts, and analysis presented in clear english. So what stops the university professors from picking the phone and calling policy analysts like yourself to have an intellectual discussion before commenting publicly on technical issues like this.
@BBSimons May Allah bless you and grant you strength for your vigilance toward the public purse.
@BBSimons Mantse Ghana and the people who wish it well re grateful. Whatore could we ask of u. Bless u. This write up and analysis is beyond measure.
@BBSimons Minor point but why does SML insists it’s using “BoG data” when even in the annual tax revenue reports, it’s GRA data that’s used. How do they also explain the difference in their baseline volume and what the GRA told the public? P.S. I’m not mad at the STATA jab 🤣
.@BBSimons challenges Yaa Serwaa Sarpong, SML's Director of Support Services, with a piercing question: "Are you the only one driving progress when trends shift?" This comes as Yaa Serwaa boldly claims that SML has effectively stemmed revenue leakage and boosted government funds.…

@skkutu @benboakye @BBSimons Why can’t they say what they have been paid if they feel they are doing legitimate work that warrants the fees they have been paid?
I’m watching @pointofview on @CitiTVGH and @BBSimons is talking like somebody who knows what he is saying but I'm not sure what exactly SML Rep is talking about. @BBSimons I Respect you more
This SML Lady is finding it very difficult to even explain what their company does.... The chop-chop is too much @Citi973 #Thepointofview @citinewsroomgh @BBSimons
Kudos to @BBSimons Bright Simons, man is very intelligent 🧠. Makes all this fake SML deal very easy for the ordinary Ghanaian to understand. 🤣🤣🤣
@BBSimons @fidelitybankgh A class action suit by farmers might catch their attention better.
@BBSimons As a native of Tamale where most NGOs are based, I come to an anecdotal conclusion that the only benefit these NGOs enure to the people are the huge executive salaries and service conditions. Otherwise, the benefits to the "beneficiaries" seem to be in tokens.
