Dr. Dennis Addo, CEO of the Claron Hospital and co-founder of Bisa, an internationally acclaimed health app, has been implicated in a recent exposé by The Fourth Estate, led by investigative journalist Manasseh Azure.
The investigation has revealed the identities of prominent and wealthy individuals who have reportedly secured scholarships intended for academically gifted but financially disadvantaged Ghanaians.
Per the report by The Fourth Estate, Dr Dennis Addo, who was appointed to the board of the National Health Insurance Authority from 2017-2020, managed to secure a scholarship through the Scholarship Secretariat to pursue a degree in Public Administration at Harvard University.
The report indicates that the Secretariat “paid USD50,031 for his tuition and living expenses in the United States in 2019”, even when he served as a Board member of the NHIA.
Dr Addo is said to have had two streams of financial support – one from the Scholarship Secretariat and the other, Cheng Fellowship, from Harvard University – during his 2-year tuition.
Dr Addo is a member of the governing New Patriotic Party, according to The Fourth Estate.
“Dr Addo describes himself as a pioneer member of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) students’ wing, TESCON. He recently contested in the NPP’s parliamentary primary at Atwima Nwabiagya South in the Ashanti Region but lost,” the report said.
God;why do you allow these stone hearted people live milking the sacred cow?
