Despite the public outcry, which broke over the issue of car loans, Members of Parliament have been granted various sums of money ranging from $15,000 to $20,000 (120 – 160 million cedis) to purchase cars to facilitate their work. So far, various brands of cars, according to each MP’s specification or preference have been imported into the country. About 70 cars have been imported from India. Finance Minister, Yaw Osafo Maafo confirmed that government has agreed to offer loans to the MPs to enable them to buy the cars.
