The Minority chief whip in Parliament, Hon. Doe Adjaho has stated clearly and authoritatively that the hue and cry over the four cars imported by former President Rawlings are actually not bullet-proof.

He stressed that he himself has gone to former President Rawlings? house and seen the cars himself and inspected them after Rawlings had told him to do so. Commenting on the controversial bullet-proof cars belonging to the former president in a telephone interview with Goodnews Fm, a local radio station in Takoradi, Hon. Adjaho who is also the Member of Parliament for Avenor, emphatically stated ?I want to make it clear, and I can tell you on authority that the cars imported by the former president are not bullet-proof?.

In response to how he could know or identify that those cars were not bullet-proof, Hon. Adjaho said bullet-proof cars are not different from the land cruisers he knows or has sat in. He continued by saying that the glass or windscreen of a bullet-proof car is different and that he had seen one before and also ?when you hit the screens, you see that they are different?. He, therefore, revealed that the vehicles at the former president?s house are basically three land cruisers and one Isuzu.

He noted that the hullabaloo about former President Rawlings importing bullet-proof cars into the country is a story being peddled by the security agencies to whip up public sentiments against the former President, and that he (Rawlings) has got some motives, but to all intents and purposes, the NPP administration has grossly misfired. This is because he personally went to Rawlings after hearing the story concerning the purported bullet-proof vehicles and Rawlings emphasized they were not bullet-proof, and asked him Adjaho to go and look at them which he did.

Continuing, Hon Adjaho mentioned that because the NPP government might have imported some bullet-proof cars and would want to put them in the public domain, they are rather saying those imported by the former President Rawlings are bullet-proof. He added that when facts are twisted to suit certain shims and caprices then ?if also shows the hypocrisy, sycophancy and dishonesty in the NPP administration?.
