The criticism has centred around conflict of interest concerns.

The acting spokesperson of the presidency, Felix Ofosu Kwakye, explained that the President was travelling in his brother’s jet because the Ghana Airforce is yet to provide him with reports on the state of the presidential jet and other flights under their mandate.

Kwakye told TV3 that the president will start using the official jet as soon as he is provided with a briefing on the state of the presidential jet.
